What a wonderful place to stay. From arrival to.departure we were treated as family. The rooms were exceptionally clean, cleaned 3 times a day, and very comfortable. Furnished so well. The food was fantastic, so much choice and changed daily. And the desserts were wonderful. Stunning gardens and lovely pool. Fantastic Spa. We went on safari every day and the breakfasts they made to take with us were fantastic. Superb safaris, and the tigers absolutely gorgeous. We cant recommend this hotel highly enough in words, you just have to go and stay yourself. Thank you yo everyone for making our holiday so special. We will be back in May.

This resort is an incredible experience. The spacious, clean and comfortable rooms and bathrooms along with the large round indoor/outdoor dining area were well integrated with the natural landscape. After arriving and receiving our welcome drink, we quickly changed clothes to swim in their lovely pool. Meals were prepared based on our desires. I have to say every dish was delicious! The safaris were varied and of course seeing tigers added to the excitement! There are also incredible birds, and wildlife. Staff was attentive and friendly. We would not hesitate to return again.

Indrajit Latey of Wild Routes, wife Manjiri Latey of Earth Wise, combined with the Bhati family of Kanha Jungle Lodge, we highly recommend for an exceptional Jungle Safari Holiday experience Indrajit’s charisma, unparalleled knowledge and experience of the region, immaculate planning, eye for detail, coupled with perfection and a unique human touch…..leads to only one guarantee! - a memorable & richly satisfying “Wild in Nature” jungle escapade! The Lodge Owner Bhati family of Tarun, Dimple, son Jai, and close Associate Manisha, creatively and warmly produced an outstanding experience too! Be it the Tiger Legacy or wildlife ambience, or exceptional cuisine, outdoor dining or stunning decorations ……it was all there to relish and enjoy! Their staff, all local, all with the Lodge for decades, immaculately trained, took care of us with smiles galore and a professional touch! What stands out is their (all of them!!) real dedication to sustainability by leaving so much of the property in its natural pristine Jungle form….so it’s a to & fro from Real to Mini Jungle! Only a day since return and we are already dreaming of doing it again, to join the “done it many times Pack”!! Bravo & Thank you!! dear Lateys’ & Bhatis’ Nanda & Ganesh …

One of the best best jungle experience I had because of this lodge. Jay and his mother helped a lot in appreciating the biodiversity around the park we were particularly fascinated by the touring given by Jay to see the various insects, arachnids and frogs at night. Jay's mother also showed us flying squirrels.

Having recently been guests at Kanha Jungle Lodge ,we highly recommend the experience . Tarun, Dimple & not forgetting their son Jai were excellent hosts & very knowledgeable about the wildlife. The staff were excellent & tuned in to the guests needs. Food , some prepared by Dimple with the help of the cooks was delicious & plentiful. Accommodation was excellent and well attended. Jungle Lodge is close to Kanha park and the few days we had there were well rewarded with sightings of tigers and cubs along with many other superb animals and birds. It was worth getting up at 5.30 am each morning. In short - highly recommended! Wonderful holiday. Cannot wait to go back!

Kanha Jungle Lodge is the perfect blend of friendly, comfort and beauty. I should also mention the food is so delicious that it will spoil you for any other safari destination. Managers Tarun, Dimple and the whole staff make this high level of comfort look so easy all while helping with your tiger safari needs. Excellent guides are provided for those who wish to do a tiger safari. If you are looking to do a safari in Kanha National Park this is the best place to stay, you won't want to go home.

We absolutely adored our time at this lodge and with our incredibly gracious and smart hosts. Tarun and Dimple and their attentive staff made us feel simultaneously at home and relaxed, and also pampered and like we were on holiday. The very best combination! The rooms are beautifully appointed with every detail looked after, the food is impeccable. The best though of course, is the people. I suggest making an effort to slow down and ask a few questions and learn what you can from the family that runs this magical place. So much more than a safari jungle lodge awaits the inquisitive. I been all over the world in this sort of setting and have rarely, if ever actually, encountered such terrific naturalist guides who also operate at the highest levels when it comes to hospitality. One particularly memorable evening Dimple introduced my son and I by moonlight to an incredible universe of insects, flying squirrels and frogs hiding in plain sight on the lodge grounds. We really did have a delightful time scouting out translucent snowflake caterpillars munching on leaves, learning about spiders that masquerade as ants, tiny frogs living in tree holes, zebra stripe cockroaches, and how damselflies rest by hanging like sticks on branches. On another afternoon Dimple led us to the river. My son had the time of his life playing in the water, spotting spiders, birds and other insects and was treated afterward to masala chai, his new favorite beverage, made right there on the shore. Of course everyone is on the lookout for tigers, but we felt especially lucky to see very many gorgeous birds, and even a leopard. The most incredible thing I have ever witnessed, the way Tarun was able to understand where it would appear... I will never forget the light breeze, the sun dappled path, the silence, and then! the leopard on silent feet comes gliding out of the trees. Magic! Not to be missed!…

We stayed in Khana Lodge in January 2023, with friends, in laws, extended family and two small children. The experience was heavenly. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with smiles, expert hospitality and dappled sunlight filtering through the myriad of trees that ensconce the property. It felt like living inside an enchanted forest, which you learn about through carefully placed namecards educating guests about the plant and tree species. Rooms were generous, neat and impeccably kept. The food was incredible: everyday something completely different inspired by fresh seasonal ingredients - decadent and delicious but also very wholesome and nourishing food. Common areas were so beautifully designed to feel like you are in the forest but held in high comfort. Walks with Dimple through the forest were a highlight for all of us - she taught us so much about moths, insects, butterflies and above all taught us to observe the tiny living stories that surrounded us. Lemongrass chai and snacks at the riverside over a gentle sunset was very special. Our children had a very special time too - from rangoli lessons, moth theatres and misty morning walks - Khanha Lodge is a place we will not forget and definitely visit again. Highly recommend for anyone planning to travel in beautiful Madya Pradesh. Thank you Dimple and Tarun for your superb hospitality.…
