Culinary Delight

The dining experience at Samode Safari Lodge was extraordinary! Every meal was unique, with a blend of Indian and continental options. A highlight was dinner set up in stunning outdoor settings, each evening feeling like a special occasion. The chef even prepared my favorite dish for me to take home! The service was attentive, with staff recalling our drink preferences each time.

Luxurious Accommodations

Our suite was more than I had ever expected—immensely spacious and beautifully designed, with a living area that was larger than some apartments! Each room had large windows looking out into nature, providing a serene ambiance. The attention to detail was perfect, with multiple turn-down services each day making us feel truly pampered.

Rejuvenating Spa Experience

The spa at Samode was a blissful escape. I opted for the Ayurvedic couple's massage, which was good—everything from the ambiance to the aromatherapy oils was perfect. The setting, complete with soothing sounds of the pond in the center, created a peaceful atmosphere that eased away all the stress from our adventures.

Engaging Evening Activities

The lodge offered good evening entertainment! One nice night, we enjoyed a film about tigers before our barbecue dinner, which truly brought the wildlife experience to life. Additionally, the photographic displays from naturalists sparked lively discussions and excitement about our upcoming safari ventures.
