While Elephant Point has received praise for its overall ambiance and dining experiences like the Boma Dinner, which guests found incredible in terms of food and atmosphere, the breakfast offerings seem to fall short of expectations. Several guests noted issues with breakfast timing, as it starts late in the morning—around 9:00 or even 10:00—suggesting it feels more like a brunch. This timing may be inconvenient for those looking to start their day earlier. Additionally, the need for a breakfast delivery service was mentioned, indicating that some guests were not aware of breakfast being served at all. Although the hotel impresses many of its visitors with its stunning setting and particular dining events, improvements in breakfast service could enhance the overall guest experience.
