Mahua Kothi

Named after the Mahua tree that holds a special place in the hearts of the people here, the Mahua Kothi is a safari lodge by the Taj Group located in a 45-acre private forest on the fringes of the Bandhavgarh National Park.

Stay in one of 12 cottages built of mud. These cottages with private courtyards seamlessly blend traditional architecture with modern-day facilities and comforts. Unwind in air-conditioned rooms that are done up in the colours of the land such as warm browns and rich rust. Sink into comfortable king-size beds and wake up rejuvenated to the sounds of the forest. Start the day with a relaxed nature walk or opt for an exciting safari drive through Bandhavgarh with a bonnet breakfast. Stroll through the property’s organic gardens for a farm-to-fork experience or cool off in the outdoor pool surrounded by Mahua trees. For a bit of pampering, give your muscles a well-deserved massage treatment at the in-house spa. Dining at Mahua Kothi is an experience in itself. Sit on traditional string beds around a glowing bonfire, and enjoy cultural programmes as you savour dishes made the traditional way. Head to the terrace for alfresco dining or request for a barbecue dinner under the Mahua tree.
