I can only agree with all the other 5 star reviews of the Elephant Park Lodge. The accomodation was actually better than I had anticipated - clean, reallly comfortable beds with lovely clean linen. We were in a family room as we were with our 12 year old daughter, so had a double and twin bedroom, shower room and small... More

I don't think there is much else I can add here that hasn't already been said. It was the highlight of our holiday and I will remember it for a long, long time. The accommodation was comfortable with a good shower, mini bar and comfortable beds with crisp cotton sheets (pillowcases were monogrammed with an elephant) We even had a... More

We had an absolutely fantastic stay here and would recommend it to anybody. The relatively high (by South African standards) cost of the accommodation is by far made up for by the fact that you get to spend loads of time with the elephants when the general public aren’t in the park. For example you get to see the elephants... More

This is an amazing experience with the Elephants. The rooms are beautiful, and they are all located off a common lounge that looks out over the elephants sleeping pens. We walked with the elephants in the evening and again in the morning, watched them be ridden, and fed them. We also enjoyed a galls of wine in the lounge while... More

Spending a night with the Ellies was a dream come true. The rooms in the lodge are extremely comfortable and set around the Elephant's Boma where they come in to sleep at night. The main lounger overlooks this area and our room (Harry's Room) also had a window where we could watch the Ellies from. We also booked a sunset... More

A stunning experience. A night in the elephant boma should be on everyone's bucket list. The time with the elephants was the highlight of the Garden Route. The lodge is great, rooms large and tidy...but it's all about the boma here. Guests have 24 hour access to the lounge to watch the elephants come in and feed each evening and... More

The highlight of our trip to South Africa was most definately our overnight stay at Knysna Elephant Sanctuary. From arriving in the mid afternoon and the childrens delight in finding elephant shaped chocolates on their beds, to hand feeding the elephants it was magical. After dinner at a nearby restaurant, ZinZi, we returned to have hot chocolate while sitting wrapped... More

Everything about the Elephant Park is amazing. The staff are brilliant, the location is stunning, accommodation spotless and comfortable - not to mention the fascinating stars of the show - the elephants. The experience of staying in the lodge is one not to be missed because you can visit the elephants' sleeping quarters as often as you like at night... More

Had the pleasure of staying here for 3 nights. The room was modern and lovely and you must stay in room 1 as we had 3 windows looking down directly where the elephants sleep at night in the boma. (even our bathroom) There is also a beautiful communal lounge where you can go and see them sleeping at night, (coffee... More
