Bilit Adventure Lodge

You need to realize you are staying in a basic lodge to see wilderness and the animals not a five star hotel, with that in mind this gets an excellent rating. My room was clean, bed basic and relatively comfortable. Bathroom was also clean and a liquid soap dispenser was provided (no separate shampoo). The hot water was warmish and you need to turn on the heater before use. AC was adequate and was happy to have it (I think some rooms do not have AC so be sure to ask / reserve if you want it). Food was sufficient and simple. The river cruise was great and the local guides did a super job spotting the wildlife. The night jungle walk was fun and saw more wildlife than I was expecting (thought it would be just insects but saw birds and other mammals). The staff in general was friendly and nice. Things like binoculars, mud boots and leech socks are available for rent so be prepared to pay for such things. WiFi was available for a fee and only works in a limited area (dining hall) so don't expect it to work in your room.

Amazing stay! Came here for just one night and had a great experience! Pygmy elephants came to our lodge at night and it was a rare occasion! The guides and wildlife department made sure the elephants did not barge into the lodge whilst not harming them. You’ll learn a lot from the locals and the guides! We had Tiffany as our guide and we loved the experience!
