Hi, WE recently spent one night at the Knysna Elephant Park Lodge, and are so glad we chose the Lodge, and not in Knysna Township. We did not find a lot to do in Knysna. The Heads, and the Pier area were well worth a visit. Maybe we were looking forward to the Elephants too much !! Checkin was very... More

After a slightly chaotic and lengthy check in [I wonder if a seperate check-in for lodge guests would be better than mixed in with the 'day-trippers'] we were shown to the lodge via the Restaurant / Cafe. Here we ordered our meal which would be delivered to the room later and with a free choice of meal for our 6yr... More

We stayed at the lodge for 2 nights, you will be Amazed at the lounge in the lodge over looking the elephants sleeping quarters. even though we were late the first night, the staff still made sure our 11 year old Michael had 10 minutes private feeding time which was so kind and considerate. We all fell in love with... More

The elephants and their guides provided a very special, once in a lifetime, experience. Those gentle giants and their kind shepherds gave me unforgettable memories! The lodge is fine, just the price is wrong. This was reflected in us being the only staying guests. It would have been much better to come for the day. Most elephant experiences are not... More

What an experience being so close to these gentle giants. I visited with 2 of my Indian guests last week and they were over the moon being able to feed and touch the elephants and the staff were phenomenal! We loved every minute of it! Will visit again and again!

If elephants are your passion, the Knysna Elephant Park Lodge is a must do. On the other hand, if you are interested in elephants but don't want to spend the extra money to stay at the lodge then the day program offers much of the same experience at a better price point. The only special thing about staying at the... More

The most wonderful place in the world! The elephant lodge is an amazing experience, not to be matched! The guides are so knowledgable and friendly we were able to go out on a tour to see the elephants and spend as much time with them as we wanted and ask millions of questions. It was quite breathtaking to be able... More

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
