Step into a sanctuary where the untamed beauty of Bandhavgarh dances with the age-old elegance of Bagh printing. Inspired by the quiet strength of the tiger, this retreat is layered with earthy tones, hand-blocked motifs, and textures that carry the memory of generations. After a day tracing pugmarks and forest trails, sink into a cloud-like king-size bed or find a cozy corner where the jungle whispers its secrets. Every element, from handspun textiles to locally crafted accents, tells a story rooted in the land. Mornings begin with birdsong and cool forest breezes; nights fall gently to the rustle of leaves and distant calls of the wild. Here, nature and comfort don’t just coexist - they embrace.

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. With cheeky monkey details tucked throughout the space, there’s a joyful reminder at every turn, the forest is always watching, always playing, and always alive.

This villa draws inspiration from the graceful deer of Bandhavgarh and is brought to life with vibrant Gond art, lovingly painted by artists from Umaria in Madhya Pradesh. These are the same forests the Gond tribe has called home for generations, where every tree and creature carries a story. Gond painting is a joyful celebration of life and nature. With delicate dots, flowing lines, and bursts of colour, it captures the rhythms of the forest and village life. In this space, you will find hand-painted scenes of deer, trees, and birds that echo the spirit of the jungle just beyond your window. As you relax in your airy bedroom, with forest views all around, the walls begin to speak, telling age-old folk tales through every brushstroke. It is a space that feels both alive and rooted, where art and nature blend in quiet harmony.
