Sappraiwan Elephant Resort & Sanctuary

This is an amazing hotel. Truly one of a kind. But first the bad, Wi-Fi isn't in all the rooms, breakfast isn't "wow" and it is in the middle of no where. The pool is not deep, so do not expect that. Ok that out of the way, there are 13 elephants that live on this property. With a new care taker (David, ask the front desk about him. Speaks Thai and fluent English. ) leading the way, the elephants are no longer being ridden or fed by tourist. That doesn't stop you from having David guide you down to the elephants (1 caretaker per) where all that is between you is their personal caretaker. So you are not shocked, they do have a chain around their neck, about 20 meters long for night time. The caretakers need to sleep and you can't have guest getting between a baby elephant and the mom. That could be deadly. Ok the area, again you are in the middle of no where but there are many waterfalls and temples. Other than that, this hotel is quite, BIG and one of a kind. Book it now! My pictures will show the chains, but trust me, these elephants go just about anywhere on this massive property that they want.

I loved my stay at this resort. It’s a beautiful unique location. Yes the weekend was a bit busy and loud due to the corporate event. The most thing to do is the walk with elephants. The sanctuary team has been doing a great work which in transition, ie reinforcing elephants to live in their natural way, and not to be used for entertainment such as riding/dancing etc. Great work, team mahuats and David. Loved spending my every single minute at this place. Hope to visit again in 2019.
