In which we fall in love with elephants
Woke very early, must be the jet lag. We hadn't noticed much on our arrival in the dark and were delighted to find that our room had a very large balcony and directly overlooked the lagoon. Down for breakfast we found that the place was almost deserted apart from a wedding couple having photos taken by the water’s edge. We were served …
We brave the hordes at the Super 8's

“ A good reasonably priced hotel ”
Reviewed Sep 26, 2012
