Oberoi Vanyavilas, Ranthambore

Just ten minutes from Ranthambhore, Oberoi Vanyavilas is an immaculately maintained and charming retreat with luxury tented accommodation. This is the ultimate in glamping, absolutely bathed in luxury, and you can expect exceptionally high standards of pretty much everything.

Ranthambore National Park in Rajasthan is a dream. Its lush forest setting hides tigers, flying foxes, panthers and mongoose, and its waters are home to North Indian flap-shelled turtles and snub-nosed marsh crocodiles. The sanctuaries at Kaila Devi and Sawai Mansingh are close at hand.  As well as the incredible wildlife, you'll marvel at the UNESCO World Heritage fort, the Ganesh temple, and surrounding ruins. On-site at the hotel, you can relax in the exquisite spa facilities, take a dip in the pool, use the gym, or dine a-la-carte under the stars or from the observation tower.

There are only 25 tents and a feeling of privacy throughout the manicured grounds. The interior is not just lavish. It borders on ostentatious. You’ll rest your feet on gold woven tiger print rugs and lay your head on the pillow of your choice atop a sprawling canopy bed. Expect solid structures, private courtyards, great mod cons, and high-tech entertainment. The observation tower is brilliant for dinner and views. 

The Oberoi Vanyavilas is the pinnacle of over-the-top glamping, and you can expect all the usual Oberoi special touches: impeccable service, fine dining, and royal treatment.
