Aman-i-Khas

Impressive amount of thought and attention to detail for all aspects of our experience; from the spacious tent, multiple seating areas, deeply comfortable bed and pillows, to the bathroom amenities and the delicious food. The care and attention by our “Batman” and every single member of the staff for whatever need we could possibly conjure was overwhelming. It speaks to a focus on great leadership and training, and set a standard by which our future hotel/resort travel will be judged. One word of advice to those planning on taking a safari-book through Aman-I-Khas. It is worth every penny to have a private tour using their driver (ours had 25+ years of experience) and the contracted naturalist. On our two safaris (one early morning, one late afternoon), we saw two different tiger families (multiple broods and the father) which was beyond our wildest hopes. But most importantly, the driver and naturalist worked seamlessly to position us in the best places within the zones for the optimum experience. Their insight into how the tigers would move was uncanny and resulted in us observing the tigers’ behaviors for several hours. The icing on the cake is that the naturalist took many amazing photos which Aman-I-Khas provided us as a part of our experience.

Wow - best hotel in India and one of best ones we stayed at anywhere. Tent is awesome, grounds well maintained, service staff, manager - each attentive, friendly, superbly trained and they check-in on you and genuinly care. Menu offers plenty of options and if you want something off menu, they would oblige (with in reason). Tent: nice shower, tub, dual sinks, large bed, a/c+heat, desks, large sitting area, chairs outside tent. Negatives: No TV and since thin canvas walls, can hear neighborhood noises at times and the dirt road to get to hotel is bumpy. They very close to park (zones 1-5). Spa treatments good, pool nice. Some music at night, wish they varied it though. They have a farm on grounds to grow most of what they serve, recycle water, use area wood and they trying to be sustainable. I'd stay again at this location and would highly recommend.

We had such an amazing time! The property is beautiful. It never felt crowded, as there are a limited number of tents. The food was incredible, some of the best we had in India. The tents felt very luxurious. Our Batman, Esver, was very helpful and sweet. Esver even set up a special table for us with decorations for my birthday along with a cake and flowers. The only negative thing I can think of is we had a monkey on the top of our tent at 3am…but that is part of the experience haha! We also had massages at the spa that were fabulous. Overall a 10/10 experience, and we hope to be back some day!

We had the most wonderful stay and cannot thank everyone at Aman-I-Khas enough; nothing was too much trouble and they were incredibly attentive, providing everything and more than we could possible need, from cookies, tea and hot water bottles for the safari’s to our very own personal ‘Batman’. It was so luxurious and yet somehow still felt embedded into the wildlife. We will definitely be back and can safely say that it is one of the most special places we have stayed in.

We stayed for three nights in December 2024 with our two daughters, ages 11 and 7. It was a long drive there, but boy was it worth it! First off, they have individualized butlers, called a batman, who see to every one if your needs, from turndown to meals. We had KC, who is a delightful person and an absolutely amazing hotel employee. He anticipated our every need, and was patient with all of our American requests. He gave us a tour one morning, complete with candle making, playing with goats and rabbits, and bracelet making. Definitely do it. The last night’s meal was outdoor by the fire and traditional Rajasthani. It was delicious - as was all the food, but particularly that night. The room was amazing. All four of us stayed in one room and it was plenty of space - the kids slept in the day bed. It’s very thoughtfully designed and able to be both warm and cold. It’s not a tent experience - better water pressure in the shower than we have at home! Oh, we also went on three game drives and saw a tiger, leopards and sloth bears. Amazing all around!
