Mason Elephant Park and Lodge Gianyar Bali

An absolutely incredible and wonderful experience! I'll start by giving thanks to our driver, Aditya Gunadi (he works directly with the park). From the moment he picked us up, he made us feel comfortable, well taken care of, and safe. The ride from the Grand Hyatt to the park is about two hours, but I can assure you we had such a great time with the driver that I didn’t even notice the time go by. The park itself is a truly amazing and fulfilling experience from the moment you arrive until the moment you leave. Lunch is varied and delicious (highly recommended!). The elephant encounter is just beautiful and feels so free—you can touch them, kiss them, and pet them without any problems or excessive restrictions (all in a safe way for both us and the elephants). I got to feed them and take photos happily. Bathing the elephant is another unforgettable experience—highly recommended! The connection you feel is absolutely incredible and it's perfect for the whole family. — A family from Puerto Rico All in all, I highly recommend visiting the park and living the full experience. You won’t regret it!

I feel compelled to write a review. Having read some of the bad reviews before coming here created a bit of concern before I visited. However, after staying here for two nights, I am absolutely convinced that the Park is doing the best for these beautiful elephants that were originally rescue animals. All the staff I’ve met here are kind and caring to the animals. The park itself is pristine, very wellvery much well-maintained and spotlessly clean despite having 24 elephants and hundreds of guests roaming around the grounds all the time. It’s probably the best run animal sanctuary I’ve ever been to. The animals aren’t forced to do anything, and I’ve never seen any trainers showing signs of cruelty. Before coming here, I was concerned about elephant riding, but having read through everything in the museum did a lot to ease my concerns. Plus, as we all know, exercise and weightlifting are as important for humans in maintaining mobility and muscle strength as it is for elephants. These animals would’ve had to walk long distance in the wild anyway. Anyhow, I support the park and what they do. My family had a great time staying at the lodge.

Amazing. So happy to see the elephants taken great care of. Well worth the money and feeding, bathing and riding the elephants such a wonderful experience. Good to know the money I spent helps keep these beautiful animals maintained to a high standard. Will definitely go back

The Adventure Buddies family of 5 not only got to play with elephants with the most impressive amazing experiences like no where else but also stayed at the lodge in the most beautiful family suite with elephants right outside our door, viewing them from our wrap around balcony! The staff was extremely accommodating even helping us with babysitting for our youngest. The treetop bar was our favorite! But overall the experience was one of the best we have ever had! Highly recommend for your next family vacation!!

Animal abuse. Thats all i have to say.the poor animals are tied to chains in a circle of their own dung, theyre exploited for money.this is NOT a sanctuary,its a circus,ill never come back here ever.dont listen to the good reviews and if you look closely in the pictures of the good reviews you can see the elephants being chained
