Blackbuck Safari Lodge Velavadar

It is a beautiful lodge, the food is amazing, the national park is incredible, and I had some of the most incredible customer service ever. I ended up getting dropped off in the wrong place by a bus, and Dalpat at the lodge stepped in to speak to locals to get me back in track. As a foreigner, his assistant and support was priceless. In addition, they have an in-house naturalist who speaks English well. I loved my time at the lodge and will definitely come again if I can.

We stayed for 1 night at the lodge. We felt very welcome the entire time. The room is good and although water pressure was a bit unstable even the showers were pleasant, which to our experience is not always te case in India. We enjiyed a fantastic private safari with a knowledgable guide, and were lucky enough to spot wolves, striped hyena and jungle cats. Only negative point is that the pool was not open, even though the property is sold ad having a swimming pool. We would have liked a dip when we arrived after a long car ride .

I had made a really im prompt plan to visit it with my family. As a reason this was the only last moment option available, as other places were under renovation. I was really sceptical of this place seeing the photos, but on arrival, it was a totally different. The place is in the heart of mother nature, too calm and beautiful. Only thing was the weather was really hot. The manager Mr. Amit welcomed us very warmly and explained us about the property. The safari can be arranged by the hotel staff as well. It is hardly 10 minutes from the national park. Amit was really a gentle and knowledgable host, he explained us about velavdar’s biodiversity and its species. The food was really nice and felt like home. The place though being in a very remote place, feels very safe and secured. A must have experience. We also had an opportunity of cycling inside the campus. Thank you Amit and team.
