What we love

Enter a world gone by at Fort Barwara, where legends and supreme comforts are combined. Here, luxury and wellness converge against a backdrop of historical splendour.

Restoration efforts have rewilded the surrounding landscape, inviting back a vibrant tapestry of birdlife, jackals, and even leopards. Each palace dome stands as a gateway to an experience that feels like stepping into a fairy tale, surrounded by agricultural fields adorned with yellow mustard flowers and the rugged wilderness.

This balance between providing 5-star hospitality and a range of nature and wellness experiences possesses a beauty in and of itself, and is something that resonates with our values of finding balance, prioritising your well-being, and celebrating nature.
