"Facilities were okay. Nothing special but they were clean and inexpensive. Expedia not sending payment confirmations made both check in and check out long and uncomfortable for all parties. Expedia, please work with your venders! I struggle to understand how sending an automatic notification to your customers can't be managed."

"We had a wonderful stay at Elephant Lodge. The staff were friendly and very attentive, the pool was clean, the food was excellen and the rooms were superb. The most amazing thing was the wildlife we could see and hear from the pool, restaurant and our own rooftop terrace. We skipped a trip to the park because the surroundings were so spectacular. Would like to come back very soon!"
