Suitability

Who it's for

Who this rental suits — and what to watch for.

1
Families with childrenA good match for family celebrations because the paddock is private and feed cups allow direct interaction, but party planners must observe animal-safety rules such as no balloons, tinsel, or confetti.
2
Animal enthusiastsIdeal for guests who want close, educational encounters—the optional Keeper Chat and included feed cups put ambassador animals within reach under sanctuary supervision.
3
Event planners and small private groupsDesigned for groups that want a contained party area with tables and chairs on sanctuary grounds, offering a blend of hospitality and wildlife access while following the sanctuary’s safety rules.
4
Guests mindful of animal safetyBest for groups prepared to restrict common party items that pose hazards to animals (no balloons, plastic tinsel, or confetti) and to refrain from bringing food intended for the animals.
