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.

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.

We loved the experience with the elephants! This is a full-day paid addon to the stay (or you cna just do the experience and not stay, but we were glad we did). The room was very nice, and well-maintained. The little bar and restaurant ahs limited opening times but we enjoyed the food and the pleasant service.
