Hotel Elephant Safari Park Lodge (Ubud, Indonesia)

The Hotel Elephant Safari Park Lodge is not a hotel, it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience - or more if you are lucky. In the depths of the Elephant Safari Park in Taro, Bali, guests can watch, ride and feed 30 endangered Sumatran elephants. The 25 en-suite rooms and suites have balconies with views over the stunning grounds and, of course, the elephants. Equipped with timber “elephant footed” canvas beds, the rooms are all decorated in an elephant theme. Once at the Hotel Elephant Safari Park Lodge, guests can embark on elephant safaris, work out in the gym, take a massage or treat themselves to a spa treatment. Buffet diners and fine-dining is available on site, with a gourmet breakfast included in the Lakeside restaurant, where the elephants can be watched bathing. White-water rafting, kayaking, trekking or mountain-biking can be arranged locally. The lodge is 42 km away from Ngurah Rai International Airport.
