Aranyak Resort Kanha

We had a very comfortable stay ... The food was delicious ... rooms nested in the jungle, giving a serene and peaceful feeling, right in the heart of nature. A perfect getaway for nature lovers!

We prebooked a few months ago with the help of Rishi who also managed to organise safaris with car and guides! This has to be done as safaris are limited and allocated in advance. We also needed transport from Jabalpur Airport which was also sorted for us. The road trip is 3+ hours and not the most comfortable but our driver was great and ensured a stop at a good toilet! Our bungalow was spacious comfortable and spotless! Meals are served communally buffet style but absolutely delicious! Mostly vegetarian which suited us but there is usually chicken too. All the staff seem to work as a team and cannot do enough for their guests. Too many to mention or single out! Thank you all! Safaris start early leaving around 5-5.30 am! And it’s cold!! So be prepared. But absolutely worth it and we were rewarded by tiger sightings as well as many other animals. The drivers and guides have huge experience and want you to see as much as possible. We did four safari’s including an afternoon. The time flew by for us and we would heartily recommend others to perhaps think outside the box and visit before it becomes too busy which it surely will .

We stayed with Aranyak Resort Kanha during our latest trip to Kanha in the month if December 2024. This resort is beautifully places with comfortable, clean and neat rooms. They have special seat out place for group of 10-12 in the middle of 5-6 cottages. Food quality and service is mind blowing. They are very punctual to service our breakfast for safari vehicle at 4:30 AM. Overall i would like to recommend this property for travellers

Good grief, where do I start? I honestly wish TripAdvisor would let me put 6 stars for this place. This is the only place and time in my life I've been made to feel like a member of a royal family. After struggling to organise any safari trips in Kanha, from the UK, we found Rishi from Aranyak was able to sort everything. Literally everything. Payed the deposit (we were nervous transferring money from England to India, but I can confirm it worked out perfectly) and that was the end of our stress. On arrival we were greeted with multiple staff, bags taken care of, and a welcome drink waiting for us. We were then shown to our room which was lovely and spacious. The next morning, we began our safari with our driver Santosh. This *** is a God of Kanha. His knowledge of the animals in the park is astonishing. As other vehicles moved in many directions with news of tigers in the area, he often parked up in a seemingly random location and said to wait. Then, as if by magic, tigers appeared! Only a *** with 24yrs experience could do that. If you book, no, WHEN you book to stay here, make sure Santosh is your safari driver. Then after each trip out we returned to Aranyak only to be greeted the same, wonderful way again. Then we get to dinner. This was sublime. We stayed 4 nights here and I'm fairly sure I gained 2kg. Each night I waddled back to the room having over eaten because it was just so bloody good I couldn't stop eating when I should have. Top tip for westerners, I ate chicken and didn't get sick! You can relax here. On Wednesday afternoons there are no safaris allowed so we chose to just chill at the resort. Seeing us doing not very much two staff members asked if we'd like to go for a short walk down to the local river, which we did. What a lovely experience seeing a small local beauty spot from the guys living there. Yet more affirmation of how much these guys will look after you. We had one tiny problem with the shower during our stay and it was fixed very quickly after we let them know. Splendid. Finally, on the last morning, our prebooked airport transfer back to Jabalpur never turned up. I asked the *** on the desk to ring our transfer company and got the feeling it hadn't gone well. He proceeded to ring round many local people and got us a taxi who got us back to the airport with 6mins to spare before check in closed. I will forever wish i had more cash left to tip the driver. So overall? I firmly believe the team at Aranyak Kanha are the greatest people I've ever stayed with. 11/10, highly recommend.

Lip smacking food,best services, comfiest rooms, personal attention to details are just a few of many things at Aranyak Kanha that made our trip most special. High tea at bonfires after tiring and cold safaris was just what our bodies and souls needed and they delighted us with all that..
