Amazing experience from start to finish! Geoff looked after us. Being so close to the elephants at night was amazing in the boma lounge. The rooms were super comfortable, and the morning walk with the elephants was on another level!

The whole place was stunning, the vibe of the hotel and restaurant was amazing-there's a two month wait list for the restaurant- so you know it's good (guests of the hotel get automatic seats!). You can canoe straight onto the river outside, there's two nice pools and the views from the rooms are just stunning. Each morning the owner greeted us with advice on where to go and what to do - adding a personal touch. We loved it and didn't want to leave.

Perfect. Beautiful location and the room had everything you could ever wish for. We loved lighting the log burner during load shedding. Everything possible had been thought of to make our stay wonderful.

The room was fantastic, a lot of space also in the bathroom. Very quiet location which allowed a restful sleep, and still just a few steps away from the great beach. The team was wonderful, extremely helpful, eager to fulfil every wish. An outstanding experience!

This is a stunning place to stay, just outside of Plett. The staff could not do more to make you feel at home and assist you, especially Siso. And the quality of the food is exceptional. Would 100% recommend

The unique experience and oppertunity viewing the elephants at night and at rest as well as the interaction with them and the guides. The rooms were pristine, warm and comfortable. The lodge was very accommodating with any special requests! Rhe Cafè was comfi and the food was good. The kids could enjoy the ducks and swans and the play area while we relaxed. A great family lodge!

Staying at the Knysna Elephant Lodge cannot be summed up in mere words such as awesome, wonderful, enchanting, spiritual. It was so magical to feed, walk with and observe these majestic land animals 24/7! The grounds were beautiful, the staff and guides fantastic and of course the elephants. Both my travel partner and I felt that if we didn’t have family and obligations back home, we would have stayed on and volunteered. It was that phenomenal of an experience!

Everything about this Lodge was awesome. The location, the staff, the elephant encounters, up to "sleeping with the elephants".

The highlight of our South Africa trip! Emily Moon River Lodge is an amazing property with the coolest boho decor and incredible lodges. We couldn't get over the views!! Grant was the friendliest host, reserving us a table at the popular Simon's Bar for pizza and live music, and recommending lots of things to do in the area. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Beautiful lodges with spacious tastefully furnished rooms. The open kitchen is equipped with basic kitchen utensils and condiments. Large outdoor barbecue area. The highly recommended restaurant serves quality dishes and remarkably creative cocktails in a private athmosphere. There is plenty of opportunity for adventures on the island and it's surrounding river. The ferry to take people on and off the island works well on a 15min notice period. There indeed are Zebras roaming the island which are curious and friendly.
