Elephant and Four wise men resort

everything was good. It's very close to the beach and very close to the city Centre properties done by guy is very kind and kindly try coffee. Pancakes and omelette will feel like the taste of Home. Definitely words staying place close to the nature.

Alternativ, naturnah, basic! Hängematten vor jeder Hütte, Fahrräder und Schnorchelausrüstung kann ausgeliehen werden. Super feines Essen. Auf Flaschengetränke wird verzichtet, es gibt frisch gepresste Säfte, Chai, verschiiedene Sorten Kaffee und man kann sich sein Trinkwasser selber aus dem Filter in der Küche abfüllen. Für mich genau das, was ich gesucht habe.

The owner provide a good energy, and always happy to help

My 2nd stay at Elephant was even better than the few days I'd been there previously. Shavankar is such a kind and knowledgeable host, my beach hut was very comfortable, the food delicious and the location perfect for exploring the island.

L’ambiance, l’excellente cuisine et la gentillesse de Shivankar

Un super accueil avec des conseils de la part des gérants. Une ambiance conviviale tant avec les gérants qu'avec les autres vacanciers. Également une très bonne cuisine.
Des cabanes atypiques pour une immersion en pleine nature. La plage et ses couchers de soleil sont d'ailleurs à deux pas

This property is a budget-friendly option. However, the toilet water is not draining properly, and I believe the bedsheet was not changed after the previous guest. The room size is good and location is also comfortable and accessible, but cleanliness could be improved. The host is helpful and cooperative.

I was a bit apprehensive at first after reading all the negative reviews (from domestic tourists) so I booked only for one night but i don't know what people where complaining about. The little bamboo huts with attached bathroom and a little patio with hammock are nice and clean. Comfortable bed with mosquito net and a little fan which is necessary because it gets hot inside even a night.
There is a restaurant and bicycle and snorkel mask rental.

The location was quiet and convenient. The room was basic but very good. The bed was very comfortable and clean.

It was made even more amazing because of the delicious meals.

It was lovely to stay here

Gorgeous place with its own beach & stunning sunsets each night. Pretty location among the palm trees & delicious home cooked meals daily. Very humble/rustic room which is what you’d expect on remote island. Shared bathroom option wasn’t much cheaper than bathroom option hut, probably should’ve taken that option. Cleaning of common shower could’ve been better & more hanging area for cloths in shower room & rooms. Difficult to charge devices in hut as PowerPoint up high in rooms & no shelf below to stow when charging really.Bed, futon, uncomfortable on cement base but as I said it’s remote island so can’t expect luxury at such prices in such places. Hosts could’ve been friendlier but feel they’re v busy!

I have been traveling around different countries for many months, but I have never experienced such rudeness and unwillingness to communicate normally before. Upon check-in, the owner informed me that he would take my passport because he needed to bring it to the police. I asked him to take a photo with his phone or make a copy instead, as I don’t want to hand over my passport to someone I don’t know for an extended period (I previously experienced an attempted passport theft in India and am cautious about such situations). The owner simply said that this was not enough, and in the end, he threw my passport and money in my direction, disregarding the confirmed reservation.

In short, I was put in a very uncomfortable situation where the choice was either to hand over my passport or find another place to stay. Unfortunately, that is the atmosphere there... There were many other ways this could have been handled. If you expect a warm and welcoming vibe on a paradise island, this place might disappoint you. You may feel more like an intruder than a guest.
