Saccharum Safari Lodge

Been the best 4 days of jungle experience till date. The hospitality, food, stay, outdoors was simply outstanding. That machan outside the dining will stay with us forever. Looking forward to coming back soon. Thank you for everything.😇😇

Great property, superb inhouse naturalists (Ratna and Waseem), an awesome Chef, fantastic staff who don’t know the word “NO”. Add the beautiful Kanha forest and you have all the right ingredients to make this the Best Jungle Stay option!!!

From start to finish, the stay was incredible. As we drove in we were greeted with smiling waving staff who made us feel so welcome. The resort is located in the buffer zone and walking past the langur monkeys to the room just showed that you were in the wild! The rooms were tastefully decorated and the beds very comfortable! The bathrooms were clean and the rain shower was so nice, especially after a dusty safari! The resort itself is wonderful to walk around. With a lounge area to sit in the evenings and reflect on the day, to the poolside terrace which overlooks a watering hole at sunset- this place had everything you needed to feel relaxed and enjoy the surroundings. The food was delicious. Chef Akshendra did a fantastic job creating meals from locally sourced ingredients. He took into consideration dietary requirements. My favourite was the chaat station he set up poolside! The staff are really what makes this place special. They are kind and helpful and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was special! We are already talking about when we can go back! I highly recommend this place and I feel like words cannot do it justice!

Wasim and his team were exemplary in offering comfort, personalized service and a wide knowledge about the floral and fauna at Kanha. From the moment the team greets you at the gate to the time they see you off, they are by your side all the time! What touched me most was the passion, the earnestness as well as the enthusiasm they all reflected in their work, whether it was Chef's innovative menus, Madhuri's driving us around the zones, or the staff's pandering to the individual needs - three cheers for the gentle *** who made Saccharum a wonderful experience in the wild - kudos to you Wasim!

Wow!! What a place!! This ticked all the boxes for the kind of place we love to stay. Quiet, surrounded by nature - birds and butterflies- and the accommodation was second to none. A large spacious and light room with a splendid large bathroom with excellent shower. We require, a clean room with a good comfortable bed, a clean bathroom with a good shower and good food. Saccharum Safari Lodge ticks all the boxes. The chef was delightful and so talented we wanted to bring him home! He cooked different meals with varying international cuisines. Amazing. The owners Vasim and Ratna have fulfilled their dream of returning over 50 acres of formal gardens back to nature. It gets my vote. We absolutely loved staying here. We would not hesitate to stay here again. We did see tigers but my photos were not up to my standard to put on here.

We have been to the beautiful Kanha National Park a number of times, but this is the first time at Saccharum. It is a wildlife paradise in itself. The current owners are a delightful couple who have transformed the whole grounds into a very comfortable place to stay. Only a small proportion of the area has been been upgraded to high standard individual lodges with all the modern amenities, and the rest, some 50+ acres, has been re-wilded. So, they have a myriad of wildlife within their boundary. It is an amazing place. Also their chef is very special, concocting his own individual delights to suit all tastes. It is a short drive from Mukki Gate, the main entrance to Kanha. In our opinion, as well seasoned Indian wildlife travellers, there is no better place to stay. Thoroughly recommended
