We stayed for two nights at Machan Paradise View (a series of two up two downs) as part of our honeymoon and really enjoyed it! While the room was basic, it was clean and the food provided was again basic but good quality. The staff went out of their way to help us, including arranging an extra dawn elephant safari... More

We stayed at Paradise view (outside the jungle) for 2 nights. Our package included six meals and all tours. Food was excellent but had limited items. We had to order early for items outside regular menu. Couldn't have expected better at such a secluded place. Very clean kitchen. Staff was helpful, punctual and courteous. We changed our tour timings many... More

Terrible resort. Room facilities worn out and dirty. Towels & sheets were grey and thin. Heater did not work in the middle of nite and room became awfully chilly. No toiletries provided and room smelled as if not opened for some time. Staff tried their best to fix lights and provide service but over all bare basic accommodation. Food acceptable.

This lodge is very basic but the wildlife makes the stay worthwhile (although we did have a rat in our bedroom that was not welcome). The food is very good and something for everyone. We had 2 elephant trips and they were exciting especially when we tracked a rhino. There are 2 jeeps, one where you are sitting in the... More

I'm slightly confused here so I'm not surprised if you are too... Could it be that some of the contributors here are talking about different establishments? My comments relate to Machan Paradise View, which is a cluster of five two storey chalets (each two up, two down) with no swimming pool or tented accommodation. It's a great location and we... More

The staff were all very professional, accomodation acceptable and there was certainly a genuine willingness by the manager and the guides to make you happy and to make your stay enjoyable. Food was basic but acceptable.... good bar selection however, accomodation clean... More

The transfers, accommodation and food were all very professional and enjoyable, and although I was there in off season, (only a couple of people staying in the resort) the program of activities was very good,...
