Sawai Shivir Ranthambore by Tutc

I stayed 2 nights at Sawai Shivir Ranthambore and I could have stayed a week. This has to be the best hotel experience I’ve ever had. Everyone was so warm and kind from the moment I arrived. I was picked up by the road on the way into the property in a jeep and drove down the local road through the farms. Once I arrived I was greeted by everyone and then Utpal showed me to my tent. Uptal was there for me 24 hours a day. I have never felt such care. My first day I made pottery on a wheel. Dinner was served poolside that evening I was given a personal educational class about Ranthambore by Disha their on sight Naturalist and Disha also took me for a walk through the local farms and explained the history as well of the community. The next morning I went on a safari and the hotel packed a brunch for me to take with me on the safari. I came back to the hotel and made roti with their local chef. What an experience. I then went on an evening safari and when I returned I had dinner by the bonfire with local musicians and even did a bit of Bollywood dancing by the campfire. The next morning I went for an amazing Indian head massage with Simchina which wow was an incredible way to start the day. When my massage was finished Piyush, Monad and Sushil came and met me and took me out into their organic garden and they had set up breakfast for me under the tent. Truly magical and everyone’s kindness was immeasurable. I cannot say enough about how well I was cared for. I really felt like I was family and a princess all at the same time.

We stayed with the family for 3 days whilst at the safari park. The setting is an oasis hidden down a long and bumpy road 15 mins from the Ranthambore park. The accommodation is amazing, the food was some of the best we had in India and the hospitality was exceptional - nothing was too much for the ever attentive staff. An amazing place.

We had a wonderful time at sawai shivir. Piyush and the entire team were extremely courteous and friendly…they arranged a beautiful musical evening for us and arranged a poolside table for dinner..the tents are luxurious and tastefully developed for a comfortable stay..walking around the area in the evening with lanterns on and gazing the sky was an experience in itself.. the property is new and well developed…the food was amazing..will surely be back again.
