Our 4-night stay at Aranyak Bandhavgarh was nothing short of exceptional. The personalized and homely atmosphere is what sets this resort apart. Ram Sharma and his wife Ketki are incredible hosts who go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. They pay attention to every detail and fulfil every request with genuine warmth and care. The food deserves special mention—every dish we tried was authentic, perfectly prepared, and balanced, with no excess oil or spice. It truly felt like homemade comfort food crafted with love. Adding to the charm were their friendly dogs, Hunter and Jenny, who made the experience even more delightful. The staff also deserves applause for their courteous and helpful demeanor. Their “never say no” attitude, coupled with the ability to remember your preferences even after just one mention, makes the service outstanding. Aranyak Bandhavgarh is more than just a resort; it’s an experience that feels like home. If you’re planning a trip to Bandhavgarh, this is the place to stay. Highly recommended!

Most comfortable place I have stayed in India. I felt extremely welcome from all of the staff at the hotel and they really try and make your stay as great as it possibly can be. They organised for transfers from Katni station, my tiger safari and dropped me to the bus stop upon my departure. The food from the restaurant was delicious (one of my favourite meals I’ve had in India) and they packed me a breakfast to take with me on Safari. The room was very comfortable and extremely clean. The hotel manager even checked up on me to make sure I got to my next location safely.

Staying at this incredible jungle retreat was nothing short of magical. The property is an enchanting blend of rustic village charm and modern comfort, with thoughtful detailing that truly captures the essence of sustainable luxury. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this was no ordinary place. Every corner of the property showcased a keen eye for detail — from the earthy decor crafted with local materials to the warm, inviting lighting that perfectly complemented the natural surroundings. Even the smallest elements, like handwoven baskets and handmade pottery, added to the authentic village atmosphere. The commitment to sustainability was apparent in every aspect of our stay. The meals, which were an absolute highlight, celebrated local flavors and seasonal produce. Each dish was a masterpiece, prepared with care and bursting with freshness and flavor. Knowing that the ingredients were sourced responsibly made the dining experience even more fulfilling. Despite being nestled deep in the jungle, the accommodations were incredibly comfortable. The eco-friendly design blended seamlessly with the natural surroundings, offering both privacy and a sense of connection to nature. Falling asleep to the soothing sounds of the jungle was a rare treat, and waking up to birdsong felt like a dream. The staff deserves special mention for their hospitality. They went above and beyond to make sure every need was met while respecting our privacy. Their passion for creating a memorable experience was evident in every interaction. This retreat is a haven for those looking to unplug, unwind, and reconnect with nature in the most authentic and thoughtful way. It’s a place where luxury meets sustainability, and every moment feels curated with love and care. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an unforgettable getaway!
