I had an unforgettable stay at Bhitarakanika Eco Resort in Kendrapara District this December. The resort's serene location amidst lush greenery provided a perfect escape from the hustle of city life. The eco-friendly cottages were not only comfortable but also blended seamlessly with the natural surroundings.
The staff's hospitality was exceptional, making us feel truly welcomed. The culinary experience was a highlight, with a delectable array of local dishes that showcased the rich flavors of Odisha. The resort's commitment to sustainable practices, including their eco-friendly initiatives, added to the charm of the place.
Exploring the nearby Bhitarakanika National Park was a captivating experience. The guided tours offered by the resort provided insights into the diverse flora and fauna of the region. The boat rides through the mangrove forests were a mesmerizing adventure, allowing us to witness nature at its best.
The attention to detail in every aspect of our stay, coupled with the breathtaking natural beauty, made Bhitarakanika Eco Resort a truly exceptional destination. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a peaceful and eco-conscious retreat in Odisha.

It’s a great idea to stay here for a day. It is a part of OTDC glamping event and is only for 4 months (Nov to Feb). The cost includes stay, food, walking tour, one water sport ticket and a boat ride. Definitely worth. They also give a complimentary T shirt and cap. Food was great. You can see a lot of red crabs also on the beach which is really clean and great. The tent is well equipped with a attached bath and toilet. Only thing that we found a bit annoying was the loud music and DJ for 2-3 hours late evening, but they said it was only for one week (Christmas- New Year), so guess that’s ok. Would surely recommend this place

One of nicest experience we ever had. We had taken the 3 day package. Mr Jaganath , manager of the resort made flawless arrangement starting from picking us from Bhadrak station till again dropping us there after 3 days. The package included comfortable rooms for 2 person each,sumptuous 3 meals a day plus tea and snacks, exploring bhitarkanika forest, watch tower, museum and Udali beach in our own private boat. The best part is their service. All the staff members were extremely helpful and courteous. If you are planning to visit Bhitarkanika , this is the place to stay.

Spread over a sprawling 1.5 acre , Bhitarakanika resort is a dream destination for spending a quite and peaceful vacation. Be it birding , bird photography or spotting the huge salt water crocodiles or just boating around the huge canals and creeks , this is the place to stay.I will be very honest here about the review. The pros and cons needs to be mentioned. Pros : Hospitality and Service is unmatched. Have been doing photography in quite some places across india but the hospitality here cannot be spoken but experienced.It starts before you book their rooms. The complete guidance of Mr. Pabitra and Mr. Jaga babu on how to reach this destination in cost effective way , the complete list of service and they will make you feel at home with very cordial and friendly staff. Home Cooked Food: food was awesome always fresh , home cooked style be it veg or non-veg. Must try their prawns , crabs. Mouth watering. Stay : Rooms are very cosy well maintained , with greenery outside , very clean , all amenities available. They also have tents houses. Next time going to stay there when i visit in March 2024. Boating & Bird photography: here they will support you for birding and photography. A good boatman cum guide vimal da was attached to me. Early morning 6:30 am i was dropped in the boating area , with food and water packed for the boating trip. I was able to photograph 5 types of kingfisher, very old like 100 years old crocodiles. Superb experience. Cons : They will pamper you to the core with their service and hospitality.you won't feel like leaving this place soon. I had booked for 2 days but was very sad when i had to check-out. Sametime was also happy that i will be here in March 2024 for Mangrove Pitta. A rare bird only found around these mangroves.
I would like to thank the entire management and staff of Bhitarakanika Resort for their wonderful and unmatched service. Best of luck and rise above your competitors. 🙏

Excellent!! Lovely hotel in an excellent location with very nice hospitality.
Would like to thank the staffs over there for making our trip more enjoyable and relaxing. Rooms are spotless, beds are cozy with all the required arrangements. There was a a specious garden and playground also available for fun time. We went with 2 kids and one infant and did not face any such problem during the stay, moreover they were always ready with hot boiled milk for the baby which is appreciable.
Would like to mention about the food which was very delicious and mouthwatering. Starting from morning coffee they provide breakfast, lunch, evening snacks, tea,coffee, cold drinks and dinner.
Specially the bonfire arrangement to enjoy the winter evening was amazing.
Would really like to say, it is the perfect place to relax and enjoy with Family. Anyone can book this place for a vacation without a second thought.

Peaceful, clean, simple, comfortable, friendly, family like, attentive, proactive. These are just few words to say that u r in for a good treat and experience. Room are absolute clean and comfortable. U won't be reminded about TV or so because there's tonnes of other things to do. Food is superb and homely n will cook what ever u want. I suggest leave it to them for local taste. As solo Jagabandhu ji made sure that all external packages I take are comfortably priced and was given best boat ride with Binal and Govinda ji. This resort from moment u enter till u exit the whole tram makes sure everything is on time. A good briefing in beginning makes u aware of each day and each time. Promptness is their top priority. Ample parking. 5 star top rating to all team n the resort. Chai is too tasty n so was all veg food that I tried. Thank you team.

Although the property is very new, yet the location is the added advantage... the place is idyllic in the afternoons, enchanting in the evenings, charming in the mornings! If it's a moonlit night, it takes you to an unknown fairy kingdom through the floating clouds. It was a wonderful experience visiting the nearby villages in the evening to watch the rustic life of the village folk. The shadow of thatched houses in their individual ponds, cattle returning from the grazing fields in the dusk.... morning is delight to witness the day to day affairs of the farmer from the resort veranda with a cup of hot tea and the newspaper- is something. The nearby family too so hospitable to make you their garden, pond, etc. They also consider our host as a gentleman from whom they also learn many things about hospitality services and etiquette. They voluntarily come forward to help Jagannath, the host.Some older people come to the resort to tell their childhood scary experiences etc are the added flavors.. The food Is simply relishing as the vegetables are freshly plucked in the garden or the fish caught in the river. The cooks are skilled in different cuisine styles. The warm hearted ever smiling host is ready to feed you with local lobsters, prawns, crabs and fish. In the morning we did some yoga practices followed by 20 minutes meditation. It was a perfect place to do that.The staff are eager to learn how to satisfy their clients by service. The host is a creative person and I'm quite sure he will take all the challenges to opportunities and develop this property to a higher standard.... My stay there was wonderful. I enjoyed the stay and rejuvenated myself. I wish him all success.

The serene and pristine beauty in and around Bhitar Kanika in Odisha is captivating. Added to this is the hospitality and warmth you receive from the staff members of Eco Resort, Bhitar Kanika. They let you feel that you are amongst your own people, taking care of everything from food, fun, and comfortable staying. I would be failing in my duty if I don't appreciate their sincerity. A memorable experience to stay with the people of Eco Resort -a nature lovers paradise.

Nested in nature Bhitarkanika resort offers great Amenity and services. They have tent stay as well as AC room stays. We had opted to try both. It is a feast to eyes to watch the sunrise and sunset from this resort. Mr. Pavitra personally pays attention to the comfort of the guests. Food is freshly cooked and lip-smacking. The boat tour arranged by them and guided by Mr. Bimal is a very enthralling and exciting experience. He knows such about the crocodiles, birds and other animals. Very educative as well. The resort gardens are very beautiful…specially the sunflowers.You wake up to chirpy sounds and fog in morning.Delightful…… The best thing about this lodge is the highly knowledgeable staff who are just lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. Highly recommended!
