The grounds were very spacious, and we were able to enjoy much more than just playing in the river or interacting with the elephants. The staff were always smiling and friendly, and their hospitality was truly excellent.

Well kept facility and surrounding area. Side note- sliding glass doors are extremely clean so be careful not to run into them, although it did make for a good laugh.

This place was great. Great restaurant, and the elephants seemed very happy! The AC worked well once you ran it for a while. It's a little bit rustic so don't expect perfection. Bugs can get through the cracks in the floor/etc. but it was well maintained and cleaned so we had no issues.
