Pugdundee Safaris - Pench Tree Lodge

We spent 4 great nights at Tree House #4. The treehouse is well appointed with a great bathroom with a hot shower ( took less than 10 minutes to get hot water once you turned on the switch for the water heater). Shampoo, conditioner and lotion are provided in glass bottles. There is a lovely porch overlooking the jungle. My first afternoon there were monkeys on the tree in front of our treehouse. There is a station for tea and coffee, plenty of water flasks in the entry way. There are ceiling fans and AC in the treehouse. The treehouse was kept clean and there was a turndown done while you were at dinner. You never saw hospitality staff while you were in the treehouse. There is a phone in the room should you need any additional towels etc. service was prompt when we called for anything. The beds are big and comfortable, and when staff did turndown at night, a mosquito net was set up. Lunch and dinner was very good and there was a farm dinner one night with dishes from the immediate region. While the chef always came by at lunch and went over dinner menu and always checked if you wanted anything different than the dinner planned. There was a large variety of items on the menu. I always left very full from the meals. Breakfast in the park also had plenty of variety. The chef also inquired if you have any dietary restrictions and was very accommodating of any restrictions or requests. Majority of the vegetables and herbs are grown on the property and those that aren’t are sourced locally. The reason we were there was to see animals, specifically tigers and leopards and the park did not disappoint. Our naturalist Shiv was amazing. He knew animal behavior well and would predict which direction the cats were going to move. We had 7 tiger and 4 leopard sightings. Additionally lots of other animals and birds. The landscape of the park is beautiful. The mornings are a little chilly and blankets were provided. You are greeted with a warm towel to clean up and a refreshing drink when you get back from safari. There are a fair number of steps to get to the treehouse and it is a much longer walk to the tree houses than the cottages, so if you have any mobility issues, I’d opt for a cottage. Service throughout the lodge was great. I would love to go back for a visit

Wow, what an experience. We came to see tigers and were not disappointed. In all on 5 drives we saw 9, 4 of which were very close up. All this was down to our guide and driver Shiv, who was just unbelievable. We could not have asked for or got a beater ***, thank you so much. Tigers apart the accommodation is fantastic and the food, m out of this world. Every meal, including the safari breakfasts, were personally explained by the Executive Chef. We were treated to a bush dinner and a local village dinner. We cannot recommend Pench too highly just amazing.

Had a lovely 3 nights at this resort. Nice rooms, excellent food, well maintained personal resort Jeeps and impeccable service!!! Outstanding service and food in fact👍👍. We stayed in the tree house and it's definitely worth it, as it's a very different experience altogether. Just needs maybe an additional lamp or another light in the bedroom. Rest is great. The toilets also have a real jungle feel🐅🐅😊😊 Had some great sighting too, a leopard up close and personal!! And a tiger at a distance ..snoozing away💕 Great trip all in all and look to return.
