I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Stanley Island, from Jack's pleasant welcome to the wonderful room and view over the grazing zebras. Everything was perfect, this was one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at.

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!

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.
