    The western culinary offering…it is of poor quality

    The setting, and the ‘home away from home’ feeling it gives the guest.

    Everything. Just come back from our honeymoon, and out of the 5 hotels we stayed at, this was our favourite. From the friendliness of the staff, to the amazing food, the lovely pool, incredible safari, there was absolutely nothing to complain about. We had an outstanding time. Loved watching the short animal documentaries on the projector each evening, outside before dinner. So much on offer at the hotel, from the Spa, the library, cafe to the games room etc. Definitely recommend staying here!

    Everything. The feeling of a settlement in the jungle with little pathways winding to your cabin and great restaurants and lodges for tea and meals.

    A real feeling of stepping back in time to the pre plastic days of hunting lodges set In beautiful countryside.

    despite paying good amount on the booking, property charges extra for petty things like toothbrush. All activities highlighted are paid. I would strongly recommend not to book jungle safari from the hotel. they have a very nice sales pitch and will charge double amount. there is no special service, just book directly on the government site.

    perfect location and very clean, awesome food

    Nothing, everthing was to our satisfaction and exceeded our expectations, was our best stay in India :)

    We had an amazing stay (4 days) at Jims Jungle Retreat as the last part of our 2 weeks roundtrip in India after stressful days we spent mostly in the crowded cities, we could not had a better stay to enjoy the quietness and beauty of the nature. The staff was extraordinary friendly and welcoming, we enjoyed delicious typical cuisine, the Resort has an totally beautiful athmosphere with well made details and lots of lovely places and lots of privacy. All was perfectly looked after and totally clean. We also enjoyed a private yoga class (one of the naturalists is a certified yoga teacher) and a wellness treatment and an educational walk through the village, where we learned a lot of interesting facts about the nature, also did 2 safaris with private naturalist, which explained the flora and fauna. We also had the luck of a tiger-sighting! But there are lots of other animals like elephants and deers and and and to discover. We hope to come back soon to enjoy this high-class accomodation in all segments, simpy perfect! Thank you to the whole team who gave us such a nice experience, continue like this!

    The place is situated towards the end of the village and there's nothing nearby . Be prepared to be fully dependent on the resort for everything. Food was great but limited options available and a bit expensive

    Very peaceful and serene place , makes you feel like you are in the heart of the jungle . The cottages are amazing and very comfortable with all the amenities inside . The place is truly nature friendly as there were no use of plastic or plastic products . Good place to spend if you are looking for quiet and calm time with yourself. All in all you will love it if you are a hardcore nature lover.

    Food menu could use a little more variety but other than that there is absolutely nothing that you wouldn't love about the place.

    The breakfast is excellent. Even though there aren't too many dishes to choose from, the taste of everything they make is exceptional, especially the homemade bread and pickles.

    A wonderful family-friendly choice for visiting the Tiger Reserve!

    The location was perfect, right on the edge of the Corbett Tiger Reserve. The rooms have 5 star-interiors, with so much attention to detail in the decor and furnishings. The exteriors are rustic and blend in with the natural surroundings. All of the meals were simple and delicious, and offered at reasonable prices. Our daughter loved both the adult and kid-sized pools. We were especially impressed with the naturalists, who were both knowledgeable and extended excellent hospitality. A highlight of the retreat are the evening nature movies shown outside with cozy bonfires, just before dinner. Highly recommend!
