Kabini River Lodge by Jungle Lodges

We have booked three nights in kabini jungle lodge which includes 6 safari trips of about 3 hrs each early morning and late afternoon. The safari was amazing rich in birds . spotted deers Monkees and birds. There are stories of Tigris and leopards but we saw none. The atmosphere, the basic roms and the 5 meals a day were excellent 👍 highly recommended

Great resort to stay, serene silent n next to the lake where u can sit n njoy the nature at ease. Great food to eat n good staff to take care of you. Rooms are good n spacious and vary as per the category. They also arrange safaris for you and also notify what was seen earlier day in the safari. Overall a place to visit with family if going for Kabini or Nagarhole safaris.

This place is all about the wildlife and it is both exciting and plentiful. The accommodation is perfectly acceptable and the food seemed to be just an endless delicious and varied spread available at almost any time of the day catering to all tastes and requirements. The safaris are what it is all about here. There are jeep safaris into the nearby game reserve, and boat safaris on the vast Kabini river which this place is on the banks of. The safaris are between three and four hours long and take place form 6am to 9am and then again from 3 pm to 6pm. It is a fairly relentless regime of early starts and jiggling about in jeeps, but oh so worth it. The organization for each safari was excellent, you gave your room number and were told what jeep or boat you were on. If you do an early morning safari, wrap up warmly, we nearly froze to death on our first ones both in the jeep and in the boats. You can peel off layers as the sun comes up. The safari guides were really knowledgeable and friendly and unbelievably good at spotting the wildlife. There was communication between all the jeeps and when a tiger sighting was reported we raced across the reserve in the hope of seeing it. Great fun.

We had such a wonderful stay at Kabini! The staff was very friendly and welcoming, the food was amazing (the spice level was perfect for foreigners that don't have a high tolerance, but it didn't not lack any flavor!). The safaris were an amazing experience, we saw a tiger, a leopard and an elephant plus a numerous amount of beautiful birds and other animals like crocodiles and an otter. Special thanks to Ashwini for being a great tour guide with an impressively broad knowledge about the flaura and fauna of the area - from big cats to trees to birds to fungi! We will definitely be back!

We stayed for one night (Maharaja Package) and did two jeep safaris (evening, morning) where we saw a tiger, leopard, gaurs, elephants, sambar deer, all kind of birds, … The safaris were great and the food at the buffet was very tasty. However, for the amount we payed we definitely expected better maintained rooms. Bathrooms, rugs, curtains and flooring are all very worn down, the wardrobe was falling apart. Some easy fixes could make this place so much better

The stay was exceptionally well-organized and impeccably clean. The staff were incredibly polite and showcased outstanding hospitality. I was truly impressed by the dedication and commitment displayed by everyone working there. Our experience was thoroughly enjoyable, and seeing a tiger up close was absolutely surreal. I highly recommend this place!
