The Forest Elephant - Formerly known as the Flying Elephant

This stay is truly a hidden gem, located just off the Kalapatthar beach. I got the bamboo cottage and that cottage came with it’s own private outdoor space with desk space and reading areas. All the rooms, including the bathroom were very spacious. The bathroom had a proper wet-&-dry separation, with its own private garden! Almost the entire cottage was built using bamboo and other rustic building materials. So if a quiet, rustic, among-nature getaway in the forest-right-next-beach is on your menu, The Forest Elephant would be the perfect choice!

It was quite relaxing stay for 3 nights Location is fantastic just 2 minutes walk to Kalapathar beach . they have very cooperative and helpful staff always ready to serve.Paddy Bunglow was very Cozy comfortable. The only issue was food as they don't have functional kitchen now a days . Restaurants are about 6- 7 kms far in Market area so you have to keep some Ready to eat meals . Overall the stay was comfortable.

The best stay on my entire trip was The Forest Elephant. I fell in love with this place. If you love nature then you can go here without any second thoughts and I am very happy that I stay at this place. You can also treat this place as a nature hike, exciting and full of nature and the staff is also very nice and helpful, you can not imagine any problem.

This place is peaceful, quiet, clean and cozy . 5 min walk from the beach. It is literally in the nature. The staff is amazing, especially Avni. She is the best. Very warm and special. She share a lot from her knowledge about the places near by. Haya

Had a superb experience, close to Kalapathar beach, calm serene living in nature, love their stray dog (Kalu) hidden gem property at Havelock Island. Must visit highly recommended 👍

Lovely place to stay - great staff and good atmosphere although some huts were under construction. Thanks for the lovely stay!

Great stay with amazing view and a very helpful staff. Overall a very quiet place and provided a very relaxing experience.

Probably the most peaceful property on the island with attentive staff, the stay here is just bliss! You will need a 2-wheeler to get around and the distance is worth it
