We had stayed a week in Kruger Park, near Paul Kruger gate and driven in the park ourselves quite a bit. We sighted 4 of the big 5 and the leopard continued to be elusive. And when we were being driven to Elephant plains after our stay in Kruger Park, we were told by our driver that "the rangers and... more

After spending a week in Kruger National Park, we drove to Elephant Plains Game Lodge for our final 3 days of vacation. I think most of the people who were at Elephant Plains were collected from the airport by the lodge, but we are adventurous (and you need to be if you're going to drive there yourself). When we arrived... more

Awesome room overlooking a constant flow of plains feeders. fantastic room and verandah. Staff friendly but check in rather military style! more

Much has already been said by other reviewers about how nice Elephant Plains is, so I won't go on and on, but wanted to add another 5 star review to the list. I stayed for 2 nights in March and thought it was such a beautiful lodge with great rooms (we stayed one night in a rondavel and one night... more

As a private lodge, the rangers are able to go off road in pursuit of the animals, which means that you get extremely close to the action. We saw all of the... more

There is no better place to stay than Elephant Plains! We landed at Nelspruit Airport and had a 2.5 hour drive to the lodge. We arrived after lunch, right before the evening drive was leaving but the staff was extremely considerate and saved a hot lunch for us, so we ate and then they sent back a landrover to pick... more

My wife and I had the utmost joy of holding our wedding at Elephant Plains recently and we loved every minute of it. We had booked the whole lodge with 21 guests in tow. The wedding itself was superb and the staff did a huge amount to help us set up. Such as clearing some bushes beside the tree we... more

Elephant Plains was great. The food was great as were the game drives. We saw the big 5 in a day and a half and we saw leopards on every drive. We even saw two leopards on two of the drives. EP offers a great value for your dollar. I would recommend it. more
