Lemon Tree Wildlife Resort, Kanha

We stayed there from 18th to 22nd March 2022. It was a wonderful experience. Right from pick up at Nagpur airport in a comfortable Innova to drop at at the airport, reception on arrival at the hotel, wet tissues and a cool drink after every safari, fantastic food - veg / non-veg, clean rooms, all necessary amenities in the room with an additional toilet (which helps when you are sharing the room, to get ready for especially morning safaris), very courteous and efficient staff and hence very good service in the restaurant / house keeping etc., good Gypsy with covered seats and a good knowledgeable driver. There is nothing I could complain about. The property also is nice to move about with a swing and sit out, good birdwatching in the mornings (if you are not on a safari). I wish to add a word or two for the manager Saily Gokhale. a great multi tasker. Looked after all the guests needs, kitchen, accounts, chekc ins & outs, the hotel staff and those who work in the field (they grow lots of vegies, for captive consumption as well as commercial purpose) and field / crops (she gave us some home grown chilies when we left) and also found time to accompany us on our safaris and shared her knowledge about the jungle, trees, animals and birds etc. Way to go Saily, keep up your good work. You are an asset to Dev Vilas.

Loved every aspect of the stay at Dev Villa ! The peace, the tranquility, the rustic charm and the lovely cottages. They are very well kept ! The food is really good and customised. The Manager - Ms Saily is a fantastic host and cares for every minute detail of customer delight ! The staff is very friendly and courteous too ! Great place to stay !

Camp Dev Vilas is just THE place to be for the Kanha experience! Everything that you need to have a great experience is available here!! Rustic & clean rooms with all the required amenities, a well ventilated dining area, beautiful picturesque surroundings, helpful and courteous staff, excellent food (each meal was special… did not repeat a single dish in the 5 days that we were there), sumptuous packed breakfast for the morning safari, a well kept and clean gypsy, driver Rohit who made sure we were present for all the action … it was all just perfect!! A big shout out to Naturalist Saily Gokhale, who manages and runs the resort, so passionately yet professionally!! Her in depth knowledge of the Kanha jungle and it’s flora and fauna is remarkable! She did everything to make our Kanha experience truly memorable and special!! Many thanks Saily … you can expect us to be back soon!! Wishing you and Camp Dev Vilas the best…

The stay was comfortable. Room was clean. The safari was arranged for. The jeeps came on time. The arrangement was excellent. Food was good. Didn’t have to bother about anything. Will be visiting again.

Omnom & BBGN has consider camp as thier own home. We usually stay there for 2-3 days. We come there twice a year and it is our second home. Writing review has no relevance for us because there is nothing that we don't like there. Kailash is the best *** you have there. May the business grow to all high and you guys continue to be as humble as you are now. Best of luck

Camp Dev Vilas provides great hospitality - all the staff are very helpful and go out of their way to make your stay comfortable. Rooms are nice and spacious and love that there are two bathrooms which makes getting ready early in the morning easy. Food is good too, though the juices are concentrates and not fresh, so maybe that can improve but its a minor issue. One issue I have with Dev Vilas is that it is not eco friendly enough for a place in a jungle - though it gives water in glass bottles, it also gives polyester face towels for freshening up, uses plastic wrap to cover food and gives plastic for the journey back which can be reduced. Other than this, Dev Vilas provided a great stay for our Kanha holiday.. We enjoyed staying here for two nights.
