This villa draws its spirit from the playful monkeys of Bandhavgarh and is brought to life with the gleaming beauty of Dhokra art - a 4,000-year-old tradition kept alive by tribal artisans from Betul, Madhya Pradesh. Crafted using a time-honoured wax casting technique, each piece is a story shaped by hand. Look closely and you’ll find delicate brass figures of animals, birds, village scenes and echoes of tribal life captured in tiny spirals of beeswax and transformed into metal. These motifs aren’t just decorative; they hold deep meaning, symbolising prosperity, harmony, and the rhythm of life passed down through generations. As you unwind in your spacious room or sip tea in the open sit-out, surrounded by nature, the jungle gently reveals itself: vibrant, ancient, and full of wonder.

These motifs, drawn on floors and walls during festivals and special moments, carry the soul of rural life. Inside the villa, delicate Mandana-inspired patterns evoke the comfort of an Indian home, while touches of the elephant - calm, wise, and regal, bring a quiet grace to the space.
