Jlr Kings Sanctuary- Jungle Lodges

My husband and I are avid Wildlife Enthusiasts, Birding Freaks and Nature Lovers. This was our first visit to Nagarhole together, and our first stay at JLR Kings Sanctuary as well. It was a splendid experience overall. Needless to say, the highlights of the stay were the Dining Experience and the Warmth of the Team's Hospitality. Food Quality was homely and lip smacking, with a great variety across meal periods. The team threw in all their efforts to ensure all Guests staying in-house were at their best of comfort levels. Whilst we checked in on a Friday, we did spill over to a busy weekend. Safaris were thrilling, as we were fortunate enough to spot 3 Tigers across 2-3 of our rides. The Monsoons bring in a different terrain and landscape altogether to the forest. All of the fauna were beautifully perched against a lush green bokeh! Weekends get crowded with limited Jeep Availability and the Safaris being overcrowded. The team accommodated us in, despite the situation - and we were utterly grateful. A special note to all Drivers at Kings Sanctuary - for their sharp multi-tasked ability to cautious driving and excellent spotting skills in the jungle. Kudos to Mr. Siddaraju, Vijay and the Team (Darshan, Lakshman, Yashwanth and the rest) for an absolutely unparalleled experience at Nagarhole!

Spacious big room, balcony with clean toilets, food was good home style.

Location great, food was average and not worth the cost, rooms are old and in need of some renovation to keep up with the times. Staff was descent.

My stay at JLR Kings Sanctuary was highlighted by Yeshwant's incredible safari expertise and Darshan's attentive service. Their dedication truly enhanced the experience. However, bad maintenance including the room's shoddy furniture, plumbing issues, and the presence of a rat were notable downsides. Despite these issues, the scenic jungle backdrop made for a memorable visit.

Set in all hues of greenery, the ambience beckons me. I visited JLR, Nagaraholae twice this April. Absolutely smiling and courteous staff and the general manager as well. Specially Mr. Darshan and Mr. Surendra. It is an ideal setting for a great getaway! Food gets a green flag as it is highly delectable. I happen to visit with my family and was quite lucky to sight 2 tigers on different days. The Maharaja cottage is spacious and clean. Outdoor activities are an add advantage. But, the cycles need hauling. To sum up, it is a neat package. Good job, JLR Nagaraholae. Keep it coming!
