Staff is awesome. Well planned out to get the most from your game drives. Stayed for two nights and had four amazing game drives.
United States of AmericaHighly recommend! We were sadly only able to stay one night but were able to see the Big 5 within our two safaris. The food was amazing. The room was perfect and very comfortable. The staff were gracious and welcoming. 10/10
CanadaMy husband and I stayed at Elephants Plains and had a wonderful experience. Staff was really attentive to every single detail and really kind. Game drive was absolutely outstanding. We were really able to see a lot of animals and our guide was very professional and explained us a lot. Then the lodge and food was just perfect. We will definitely come back and we highly recommend it.
SwitzerlandGreat lodge! Staff are fantastic. Special thanks to Dillon our Ranger/Driver and Life our Tracker. We saw the big five plus thank to Life a leopard take down a small antelope. Amazing stay.
United States of AmericaEverything! The game drives were excellent and the amenities were fantastic. Not to mention the incredible staff. Will absolutely come back!
United States of AmericaThe property is ok. Make sure you request a renovated room. The rooms have decks overlooking a dry riverbed and a watering hole both of which attract a lot of animals.
United States of AmericaEverything about the lodge exceeded our expectoration! The view from our deck was breathtaking, the bed was big and very comfortable, we had an indoor and outdoor shower, and the staff came twice a day to clean and freshen up the room. The staff was very friendly and made sure we were always happy. Our ranger went above and beyond to make sure we saw all the Big 5 and did an incredible job at explaining how the animals live and communicate with each other
United States of AmericaI don’t even know where to begin! It was everything I dreamed my South African trip would be and more. The game drives were out of this world with excellent guides and trackers that get you very close to the animals. The food was delicious, they should sell a recipe book. The chefs they have know how to pair ingredients to provide excellent food. The room was beautiful and offered nice views with animals sometimes. The pools are an excellent way to relax and cool off, you can even see elephants by the water hole. The staff were friendly and helpful, they wanted you to have a good time and be safe at the same time. At night, there is even a friendly guy that walks you back to the room and wakes you up in the mornings. Thanks for a beautiful and relaxing stay.
