Stayed for 5N/4D. Was given to believe that this is “long” given the usual trend of overnighters. We couldn’t be happier to have stayed this long. To elaborate on the pros and lets try to do a few areas of improvements: Pros: Detached from the world. Internet (and airtel) is non existent unless you specifically look for it. If you really must be connect they’ll offer a router if they have one spare. If you’re looking for a digital detox, this is it. Food: They will really go out of their way to cater to specific dietary requirements. You just need to let them know. One of us could t handle any chilli and they catered to impress. Staff: Very friendly and give their best. Space: Ample, be it the grounds or villas. Location: Within the buffer zone. Not close to the two gates we used i.e. Ramdegi and Pangadi. You read everywhere that Moharli is the place to be but that’s swarming with tourists only because most resorts are located there. This is away from the maddening crowd and an hour to some gates is well worth it. We saw in all 5 Tigers, the elusive Black Leopard, numerous Gaurs, deer, Blue bull (Nilgai), Wild boar and several species of birds. All without much other tourists. Also wild boar pass right through the resort in hoards. Also I’m told tigers and sloth bears also drink from the river behind the resort. Areas of improvement: Communication: Minor but they could have let us know when we could have a la carte (we were only guests) and when they have buffet service. Minor, but an area of improvement. Packed safari breakfast: could have used a little more love. In a rush they seemed to have forgotten the spice levels and the omelette had chilli. No banana as mentioned instead we got apple. Not picking here really. Food timings: Not really followed. It’s just indicative. All in all it was a stunning and memorable stay. Huge shout out to: Chef Pramod (Head Chef), Kailash (his able asst.), Harsh (F&B Captain and a rock star), Nikhil (F&B), Rakesh (Housekeeping) and Duryodhan (Engineer and also helped me use his motorbike which we enjoyed riding for hours through the amazing terrain). All of this under the great supervision and care of Vicky Bora (Asst. Resort Mgr.) and Sharad Tiwari (Reaort Mgr.). Kudos to these fine gentlemen for ensuing every stay is curated. Last but not the least, much love to Teddy and Mowgli, the two young pups the Resort has adopted. They are friendly, playful and welcoming, we miss them already. Just shower them some love and they’ll find their way outside your villa, follow you around and you feel like you’re home. Thank you once again all. I hope more people discover this gem.
