The beautiful property and a team of super courteous staff was the highlight. We went on a busy weekend, and the staff was extremely occupied with a fully booked resort, yet they were always available for all of our requests and requirements.The property itself is so pretty and huge, you’ll need atleast a day to soak it in complete, and there are ample of activities to do there like pottery, star gazing etc. Do contact the front desk or Mr. Tarun (GM of the property) for the same. Ms Sangeeta is omnipresent on the property and can help you with any requirements.Coming to food, we had so many different dishes in every meal and each one of them stood out fabulously. The best part is that there are plenty options in veg and nonveg and they taste equally good!

The gentle breeze that flowed through the grounds carried the scents of flowers and greenery, making for an invigorating sensory experience.The resort had a very tradional vibe with the rajasthani folk song songs and dance. The guest rooms were also a delight to stay in, with comfortable beds, high-quality linens, and tasteful decor that created a cozy, inviting atmosphere.
