Mihir Garh, Rohet India, Rajasthan

This beautiful newly built fort is a real treasure in the Thar desert of Rajasthan, offering incredible panoramic views of the sand dunes for miles on end. Although it’s a completely contemporary property, it finds a great balance between nature, modern comforts, and a heritage feel. Mihir Garh is just 45 minutes away from Jodhpur, making it a very special place to relax and unwind between cities.

Mihir Garh is a wonderful place to bring the family, and the rates include meals, drinks, and a jeep safari. It’s remote and soothing here, and there are plenty of outdoor activities such as bird watching, horse riding, village safaris, and Rajasthani culinary workshops.

The fort was conceptualised by Sidharth and Rashmi Rohet, a husband and wife team that have done an incredible job with both the exterior and interior of the fort. Following an eco-friendly building policy, the pair has designed the nine suites to be spacious, elegant, and classy with soft Indian style furnishings. Each suite has its own sitting room, plus a courtyard with a private pool or Jacuzzi.

Come to Mihir Garh for tranquillity and outdoor adventure in the middle of the sweeping Thar desert. Bringing the family is highly recommended. Just be aware that the resort is not open during the Monsoon times.
