Guest reviews The Oberoi Vanyavilas Wildlife Resort

by Bahitra

Sustainable luxury in the lap of nature

Vanyavilas is an outstanding luxury resort in the lap of nature, with a keen eye on sustainability and environmental conservation. Starting from welcoming upon arrival, the impeccably maintained spacious tents, bang in the middle of greenery and yet with all material comforts, the convenient yet ecologically sensible golf carts, the dedicated hospitality DNA, the genuine caring attitude towards the elderly, the truly immersive experience in local music, culture & cuisine, the flora & fauna and biodiversity within the property, the assistance and guidance during safaris and trips to the fort, the layout, the landscaping and the observation tower within the property, the elephant that visits every day - all this and much more than this limited paragraph can accommodate, makes the stay a veritably unparalleled experience. Don’t be put off by the pricing, which will seem steep - you will discover that it’s worth every penny as everything is transparent and declared upfront with zero hidden costs, unlike many other properties masquerading as pocket friendly. If you’re in Ranthambhore, definitely stay at Vanyavilas and be prepared for a landmark experience in vacationing.

A Heartwarming Experience

From the second I stepped out of my car, I began to feel welcomed & pampered. The GM here , Ms. Ratna, is very humble. The service here is just amazing, especially since everybody is so down to earth and kind. The nobility that surrounds this place is almost unbelievable. Mr. Parveen, Mr. Archit, Mr. Kashish, Mr. Chetan, & Mr. Anthony; all made this stay more comfortable for us with their exceptional service. Then, the music here makes the food taste even better than it already is. One can just be lost in the soulful voices & instruments played by Mr Ravi & Lokesh. There's delicious cosmopolitan/international level food (particularly the soups & salads that one must try). My family & I had the pleasure of meeting Chef Tyaagi & Chef Verma, and understood that they're quite skillful & experienced chefs. In the evening, there was a presentation on Tigers which I thoroughly enjoyed. I'm not one who enjoys learning in every way, but this presentation was super interesting, and taught me quite a bit- thanks to Mr. Soulin, Mr Faiz, & Ms. Deeksha of course, who shared many seriously interesting facts. I also went through a tea tasting session that was very well organized by Mr. Jitesh. The Chamomile & Peppermint teas are a must try. I may be young, but I'm a traveler at heart. This place is possibly the best place I've been to, and I'd surely love to come back here someday. This is just one of those experiences that you never forget because you felt so happy, contented, & relaxed.

Luxury in the woods!

Oberoi Vanyavilas is a place to unwind and relax from the hustle of big noisy cities and concrete jungle. VanyaVilas is a greenland with added benefits of Oberoi hospitality & luxury. We planned a 3 day stay to relax and take sometime off from our busy schedule. It was a quick 3 hours drive from jaipur. The resort is situated close to the safari gates and is approachable. We had a warm welcome by the staff and were checked in within 10 mins. The beauty of the hotel is it's lush green property and the luxury tents. Honestly they are everything but tents. :) Such beautiful decked up room with every amenity, very spacious bathrooms and washrooms. Every tent has it's own private garden with sitting areas where you can get close to nature and peacocks. The thing I really loved about this place was it's impeccable service. Each and every staff member is courteous and always ready to look after your comfort and needs. Kudos to the entire team for such dedication towards hospitality. And the best part of the hotel was it's food. :))) simply loved it. I felt like aladdin with the magic lamp. Whatever I wished to eat or drink, it was made available to me fresh and delicious. loved every cuisine - indian, italian, thai, chinese, continental, fast food, south indian - etc I am sure we ate more than our normal diet. :) I can go on and on writing about this marvellous place but will keep that for my next visit review :-) Hope to see the team again very soon. Kind Regards

The Last Word in Luxury and Hospitality

You haven't experienced Hospitality if you haven't been to the Oberoi Vanya Vilas, Ranthambhor. We were to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and Vanya Vilas was an obvious choice. The experience commenced right from the booking process itself; the courteous response, queries to ensure a comfortable stay, recommended route with directions. The attention to details did not seem labored at all. They checked if it was a special occasion, and asked for some pictures of the 2 of us. Despite being a long time Oberoi group patroniser, and despite knowing what to expect from them, i can't but admit that the overall experience still took our breath away. The moment we turned into the gate leading to the beautiful property, the legendary Oberoi hospitality took over. The seamless courteous valet help, checkin process, detailing everything, was a superbly oiled process. The Luxury tent itself was breathtaking. A customised collage of our pictures, meticulous flower arrangements complimenting us on our silver anniversary greeted us. Every time we would return to our room, it would somehow be magically done up with fresh flower patterns, linen change etc, including the rose petals in the bathtub!! The naturalists, Faiz, and Balbir who showed us around were experts. The Vehicle we used for the Jungle safari was an Oberoi customised one for the terrain, superior to any other we encountered. And our own private dinner in the lawn, with a couple of wonderful singers exclusively for us, just won us over all over again, thanks to Praveen Dubey who knew exactly how to unobtrusively make it a special trip for us. Handwritten congratulatory note, handwritten note with a beautiful anniversary gift, and mementos are all manifestations of they customising the experiance for each guest. We believe that we were just not charged enough for the pleasure we derived out of the entire stay !! If you are reading this Mr Oberoi, please hike your prices ... we are your die hard repeat guests. Reema and Rajeev
