The Jewel of The Jungle: Going on a Safari or a wildlife holiday has always been known as roughing it- we have changed that forever!

Welcome to India’s finest Luxury Three Star Wildlife resort offering International standard facilities for disabled guests and free childcare for the duration of your stay.

A complete vacation for everyone. Revel in the luxurious thematically designed A/C Cottages (Ten) and Luxury Air-cooled Huts (Eighteen). Relax with a drink on your private lake view balcony as you watch one of the 5 verities of resident kingfishers hunt for his dinner, a wooly necked stork wade through looking for frogs or just admire the turtles sunning themselves. Jeep and elephant safaris provide the perfect opportunity to go tiger tracking and after roughing it in the Park, rejuvenate with a herbal massage. If you are not an early bird-don’t worry about missing the Tiger. Uniquely situated at the gates of Panna Tiger Reserve, our guests can relax till the tiger is spotted and then proceed directly to the elephant camp and onto the tiger visit.

Spend the evening on a leisurely boat ride and then a bar-be-que with bonfire for dinner. Live entertainment on the floating stage will keep you mesmerized. For relaxing in your room just switch onto our satellite network and make sure you keep abreast with world news, the latest shows and also your favorite soaps even when you are in middle of the jungle. After all the excursions spend some time in the Den-The Library lounge with a cup of coffee to write those postcards home or just read a book or relax in front of the Large Screen TV. Enjoy cakes, cookies, pastries, breads, burgers and pizzas made in the in-house bakery and multi-cuisine meals dished up by our master chefs.
