“Keeps calling you back”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Our plan was made only a night before and the best part was I called up at 1130PM night to check availability and Pradeep - The Hotel Manager was so courteous that he gave me all details. I booked for a Standard room with Tariff Rs 3500 per night for a 1 day accommodation.

Facts that score high:
1. Courteous staff. Well trained to help travellers.
2. A professional wild life resorts people. I met lot of foreigners who choose this resort always
3. Clean & Tidy rooms
4. Support on arranging Safari packages which otherwise is tougher on long weekends. They even helped us in sharing safari with other inmates thus reducing costs
5. Well maintained boundaries with well made pathways
6. One of the only few resorts in Gir who offer online booking facilities

Some Setbacks:
1. Food quality was good, spread was great but taste does not suite Indian palette. Bland.
2. 2 kms away from the town centre. But not a great deal!!

Room Tip: Deluxe rooms are expensive but their set-up and ambience is amazing.

This place is out of the world - in jungle amoung lions. We had a great time relaxing in the cottage, safari and just walking. So peaceful and above all, people are so friendly and always willing to fullfil your needs in the best possible ways. A must visit for all.

Room Tip: We stayed in delux room which was wonderful.

“Loved strolling in mango farm amongst chirping of birds”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 July 2011

people found this review helpful

When it was recommended by a friend-wild life photographer, we took as first handed information, as we never visited a place o heard of. Our impression was changed once we entered beautifully laid huts near hundreds mango trees. Our all three mornings were freezing (near Jungle area) with endless search for lions in closer by Lion Sanctuary. But we felt at home by hospitality and the best part was home like mouth watering food, after Safari. Should stay in for different experience near jungle!!
