North of Jaipur and just a stone’s throw away from Ranthambore National Park and Tiger Reserve, this tented resort is open from October to May and treats its guests to impressive Moghul style “glamping” surrounded by brushwood forest teeming with wildlife.
This is the place to come for tiger spotting in Mughal style canvas luxury.
Aman-i-Khas is a magical place and is a real treat stay.
There are three main tents dedicated to dining, relaxing, and spa treatments.
A beautiful step-well inspired pool for cooling off, too.
Chefs prepare fresh and delicious Indian and continental meals onsite using vegetables and herbs from the campsite’s own organic garden, and they go out of their way to fulfil your every desire.
The Rooms
There are only fourteen air-conditioned tents for guests, inspired by the Mughal style, each 108 measuring square metres with massive day beds and a central living area.
