“The drive to meals often became an adventure in itself, with a memorable encounter with elephants one Sunday. From the comfortably appointed rooms, especially those near the river, to the helpfulness of the staff, a genuine sense of calm and connection with the natural surroundings prevails. It's a place that feels restorative, leaving you ready to return.”
