Knysna Elephant Park Lodge

Knysna Elephant Park Lodge affords guests the unique experience of sharing the elephants' accommodation with them. The elephants end their day by heading to their world-class boma for the night where they enjoy some rest and pampering, with a bed of soft sawdust and a mountain of branches to keep them busy munching. The Lodge comprises six rooms that have been built within the boma, each beautifully decorated, with a distinct elephant theme running throughout.

The unique Elephant Lounge forms the central area overlooking the elephants sleeping quarters. Here guests are able to relax and watch the elephants enjoying their evening meal, being privy to the elephants' every sound and movement.

    "This was not just a room to sleep - a room which was comfortable, clean, and very well serviced - but it was also a whole exposure to the world of elephants which, whatever your views on these animals, cannot fail to be a profound and moving encounter."

  • "Magical stay"

    19 February 2016

    "We had a wonderful stay. It was amazing to sit on the wide communal internal balcony and watch the elephants come in and out during the evening and early mornings. Due to the very limited number of guests able to stay, this was never in the slightest bit crowded.<div><br /></div><div>The rooms are extremely well appointed<div>and luxurious with their own private terrace, where</div><div>you could watch the elephants and zebra at a greater distance</div><div><br /></div><div>The walk with the elephants the following morning</div><div>was lovely, a calm and peaceful walk in the early morning. Watching the elephants mud bathe and</div><div>eat so close at hand and to touch them was quite amazing.</div><div><br /></div><div>I'm so glad I went and wouldn't have missed this opportunity.<br /><div><br /></div><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /></div></div></div></div></div>"

  • "The Beautiful Big Giants"

    15 July 2015

    "I took my daughter and granddaughter to Knysna Elephant Park Lodge. We stayed for two nights! It was amazing! One really needs to stay over and get the real experience. There is so much more - the rooms(which are stunning) open onto a lovely comfortable lounge on a balcony that overlooks the elephants that have the freedom to come into the area below and sleep! To watch them at any time of the night was awesome! You could hear the grumbling, farting, snoring of them! It was so special! Absolutely fantastic. The staff were all great!"
