I’M IN LOVE!”
Please don’t read those bad reviews and give them a chance!! The hotel is located in the middle of the jungle! A very peaceful landscape. The room was clean and comfy, extremely quiet. Also the staffs were friendly, polite and very helpful. We went on their rafting program and it was one of the best experience in my life. My only suggestion is that the restaurant should have more dishes.

Peaceful”
The resort is surrounded by green and nature. We wake up everyday with fresh air and bird’s singing. We even met two deer at one night when we drove back from the city. We planned to stay for 2 nights but ending up for 9 nights! The only downside is personal car is the only transportation and it is quire far away from the city, other than that, Highly recommend if travelers are seeking for privacy, nature and serenity.

Amazing.”
What a place. Elephant sanctuary as well as an upmarket resort. Staff super helpful. Great restaurant. Set on 400 manicured acres. Three nights was too short to fully appreciate. Will definately return.

nice and relaxing location”
Stayed 3 nights. The hotel got busier at the weekend as a large group had booked in. This caused less choices for breakfast seating. Getting a table out of the sun was not as easy. The first 2 nights the breakfast was cooked to order. The 3rd night it was a buffet. Good breakfast. We ate 3 evening meals in the hotel and the food was excellent. The first night we were booked in a deluxe room then were upgraded to a chalet for the next 2 nights. Both rooms were okay with the chalet being recently upgraded . Nice area for walking in the grounds around the ponds and near to the river even though care had to be taken because of the types of wildlife in the sanctuary. Hotel wardens were regularly seen checking the area to keep guests safe. On one of the mornings we were lucky enough to see the elephants being taken on a morning walk next to the river. We used the swimming pool to cool off in the afternoon's. One of the highlights for me was the variety of wild birds. Would stay again,

Mixed Review”
Pros, beautiful, large room, well equipped with fridge, bathtub, coffeepot, lots of big windows to enjoy the beautiful view of the well kept grounds. Sounds great right? Not the cons, no English speaking staff, they were trying but only way to communicate was with Google translate. I arrived right about dark 6pm to find a beautiful elephant themed resort that looked abandoned. No lights, furniture was covered with sheets and I did not see anyone present. I called and then a man came in motorbike and led me to my room. Have to say was one of the nicest rooms I ever stayed in, like a 5 star hotel. I did not see ANY other people staying there , the place is huge with many nice chalets but it looked like everything was shut down except for the building I was staying in. Apparently, the kitchen is shut down except for breakfast . In the morning I could not find where the breakfast was served, I asked two of the staff and they pointed me in two different directions.

nice place and kindly staff with good services”
very huge place but they have car service. you can call driver or operator if you want to go cafe, watching an elephant even rafting. Good staff and very helpful. Reasonable price but I don't like yellow water. the place is near to go to Phuhin Rong Kla

A lovely escape to the real Thai countryside”
If you ever dreamed of walking with elephants in their natural setting then this is the place to come. We would highly recommend it. The care taken to ensure the elephants by the Sanctuary come first and us human beings second is very spiritual. These are wonderful big, gentle animals. an experience not to be missed.

Secluded without being remote”
We stayed in the suite with two extra beds (mattresses) for the kids. Very peaceful environment, you have your own villa, the size is just right, everything worked and the quality of everything was just right. The resort is also an elephant sanctuary, it has its own 900 rai of land, and the resort itself is quite a long way in, so very peaceful. The elephant sanctuary tour was very interesting. Minor point is that breakfast could have been better, it was more of an Asian breakfast than Farang breakfast, but I think this seems to be more of a Farang resort than Thai, so breakfast should reflect that a bit more.

So peaceful and romantic”
Very quiet and we really felt out in nature, even though we were just 10 minutes out of town. Our cabin was wonderful - modern inside, and clean. The cafe at the entrance was cute, and the elephants are amazing. Nice pool as well.

Good value & a convenient stop off”
The rooms were fine and have already been 'updated' once. Maybe get someone with an eye for detail to do the next refresh? As others have mentioned the menu is limited, but the food is ok. I'd be happy to stay here again while traveling between Isaan & the north.

Very good”
Lovely getaway from the city life. Very calm, staff is very friendly, oldish but very clean rooms, facilities were not functioning during COVID time, except sweeping pool, breakfast was decent. We liked that there was no guests and it felt special.

Interesting and different ”
Huge facility, with cabins far afield needing cart service to get back to lodge. Enjoyed the uniqueness of it.
