Delicious Cuisine

I truly enjoyed the meals at the resort. The food offered a good balance of North and South Indian cuisines, catering to both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. The sambhar and dal were particularly delicious! Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience given its remote location, and I couldn't have asked for more.

Our experience at this resort was wonderful! The location is surrounded by nature, with lots of wildlife around, which made our stay exciting. The staff was always helpful and eager to assist us, making us feel at home. However, the intermittent power cuts were a bit annoying, and the lack of phone signal outside the resort can be inconvenient. The amenities cater well to families, making it a fantastic place for a getaway.

I had a fantastic stay at the resort during New Year’s! The food was excellent, and the staff provided quick service. The swimming pool was clean, and there were fun activities every evening like campfires and games. A special mention goes to Mr. Guru, the GM, for his amazing management. However, I wish there were more evening entertainment options and perhaps a children's program.

My stay at the resort was a mixed bag. On one hand, I loved the natural setting with abundant wildlife and pleasant accommodations. On the other hand, dining options were limited to expensive buffet meals, which were not worth the price. Overall, it’s a beautiful and peaceful place but lacks flexibility in dining, so keep that in mind if you decide to visit.

This resort offers a serene retreat in the heart of Bandipur, surrounded by nature and wildlife. The cottages are comfortable and embody a cozy jungle vibe. While the dining options are diverse and satisfying, some aspects of the service, particularly around the pool, could use improvement.

During my stay at the resort, I appreciated the peaceful surroundings and the close proximity to nature, with deers and monkeys wandering around. The rooms were fairly comfortable but could use some improvements, especially the bathrooms. The food was good, and I enjoyed the variety offered. However, the lack of early morning coffee or tea for safari guests was quite disappointing and the pool could definitely use some cleaning.
