    I thoroughly enjoyed my time and stay at Elephant View camp!! I stayed for two nights in the wonderful glamping tent! It was very clean, lots of space, and thoughtfulness to small details such as a night light beside the bed, a chair beside the window and a hand towel in the bathroom. I appreciated the snacks and water left for me. The private pool was clean and refreshing and it was spectacular to be in the pool or in the chairs beside the pool and watch elephants stroll by. Morning sunrise listening to the gibbons was marvellous! My day trip with Best to the national park was a highlight! All the staff and the owners were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast very tasty! . I would definitely recommend a stay here !

    Nothing not to like. However if your looking for a lively location this may not be the place for you. Suited us perfectly for some relaxation. We stayed 3 nights, this allowed a visit to the Wfft a short walk away and a day chilling in own private pool watching the elephant and bird life. I would say stay 2 nights minimum, not sure 1 would be worthwhile to get maximum use of the area.

    The location was amazing, tents were very private and the elephants passing by each day was fantastic. Lovely greeting from Best, who was very knowledgeable about the elephants. He was also extremely helpful with organising a taxi for us as we arrived from the night train Hua Hin. We greatly appreciated how accommodating he was in allowing us into out tent earlier than the check in time, after a fairly sleepless night in the train. Also took advice from Best and stayed in Ampwawa at the end of our trip, without his knowledge we would have missed this beautiful location. Service was amazing, drinks bought to tent and food was excellent. Everything was really well prepared, breakfast was amazing too.

    There was absolutely nothing we didn’t like

    Our experience at Elephant View Camp was simply breathtaking. The view was spectacular, and the encounters with the animals were magical. The staff and owners were exceptional in every way – from start to finish, the service was personal, professional, and effortless "feeling like home". A special highlight was our day in the national park with the manager, “Best.” His guidance was informative, warm, and engaging – we couldn’t have imagined anyone better. The food at the restaurant was incredibly delicious and homemade. The two staff members were extremely friendly and helpful, making the whole experience even more perfect.

    Nothing, all was great. The only recommendation is to bring some earplugs, as all the animals in the sanctuary get a bit lousy during the night...but it is all part of the experience after all!

    Great location in the middle of the local Wildlife Sanctuary. The right mix of "glamping" and sustainable tourism, a few kilometers from Hua Hin and the Kaeng Krachan national park. The staff is also great, highly recommended.

    We did not se elefants outside, apparently they come mornings around 10, we had to leave 10am for the tour checking out 9.45 indstead of 11 which was bit stress. Thought it was more in the middle of the “park” than at the edge. 7 years ago, we visited same elefant refuge but thier cottage belonging in the middle of everything. This place is still better than the cottage of the refuge. Also We misubderstood thinking we could be showed around upon arrivel, did not understand glambing is its own buisness. So knowing this, i recommend min.2days to fully enjoy.

    Really cool tent, good qualitt, very clean and cozy nice out door bath toilet. Nice pool. Good breakfast, Very nice staff and owners. Calm sourondings. Everything was so nice, despite misunderstandning about tour and placement of Clambing tent, I would absolutely recommend already recommend for friends and Will come back, but at least 2days.

    Recently spent two amazing nights here. Warm welcome on arrival from Best. Glamping tent was amazing so comfortable and clean,with every thing you need. Best was fantastic the other staff were also very good.. The food was outstanding, I also received a homemade birthday cake during my stay. To sit outside your tent with the elephants so close,was the best birthday present ever. Nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend elephant view camp and a two night minimum stay is a must.

    It was a bit difficult to find at first. Google maps sent us down the wrong road at first. Ended up in the middle of nowhere ( though it was a little adventure :). If the road "feels" wrong, then you are probably on your way to the middle of nowhere :). Go back and take the next street...about 30m further.

    wow! Beautiful location in nature. Quiet. Surrounded only chirping bird and ....monkey sounds :). It was great to see the animals there in an open space and being well taken care of. Got to see many Elephants close up ( No touching or feeding ). The hosts / owners were very friendly and helpful as well. Next time I am in HuaHin, I will be staying there again.
