Mahua Kothi, A Taj Safari - Bandhavgarh National Park
Mahua Kothi or homestead is named after the Mahua tree which is prized and revered in the region. 12 standalone luxury cottages blend into a 45 acre private forest on the periphery of the national park. The guest area overlooks a large grassland where monkeys and birds in vivid colours are a regular feature. The mud cottages or ‘Kutiyas’ are built in the local style of architecture. A bean shaped pool screened by a bamboo thicket and shaded by Mahua trees is perfect for cooling off at midday. The guest areas are housed in a large brick building with deep verandas overlooking a grassland ringed by a forest patch. The dining hall has a large fireplace to keep guests warm during chilly winter evenings. Guests delight in picking fresh vegetables and fruit from the lodge’s private organic gardens for a salad. A select menu of treatments offered by professional in-house masseurs is the perfect indulgence to top off a safari holiday.

Amazing stay, incredible accommodation, kind and attentive staff and unbelievable wildlife
The team at Mahua Kothi were incredible. No need was unmet, no detail was forgotten. From the excellent food to the prepared baths when we returned from Safari drives, we were thoroughly spoiled. The accommodations I would describe as ‘refined rustic’. Everything you need and more but cottages and decor that fit the traditional environment. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Special thanks to Bhola (who predicted we would see 10 tigers - we saw 11). He is a true professional and often stayed extra hours to make sure we were taken care of. Thank you also for the team for making my birthday extra special with the balloons, private dinner on the patio, cake and special attention. We will be back
