Character and identity
Three hours by road from Jodhpur or Udaipur, this tented camp sits on rewilded, unfenced land in the granite-strewn Jawai region, where leopards and Rabari herdsmen share the same hills. The eight (officially ten) permanent tents trade rustic-chic for a spare, monochromatic palette punctuated by scarlet, with 1930s industrial furniture, marble showers, bathtubs and air-conditioning under canvas. Days revolve around open-jeep leopard drives led by guides who know the cats by name; evenings unfold around fireside dinners, lanternlit pool tables and serious Indian gins. Service is warm, anticipatory and family-run, owned and shaped by Jaisal and Anjali Singh.
Who's it for
Best for:
Wildlife-curious travellers and design-literate couples who want a serious leopard-tracking experience without giving up bathtubs, air-con or a thoughtful wine list. Multi-generational families are genuinely welcomed (two under-eights stay free in a parent's tent), and conservation-minded guests will appreciate the rewilding and community work underpinning every drive.
Should look elsewhere:
Anyone wanting beach, buzz or a classic palace-Rajasthan itinerary on its own. Sightings, while frequent, are never guaranteed, so guests who need a checklist outcome may chafe. The remote location and pugmark-strewn paths (no solo wandering after dark) also rule it out for very independent-minded travellers.
Bottom line
What sets this camp apart is the unfenced, community-stitched landscape that makes close leopard encounters genuinely routine, paired with a level of camp comfort and culinary care that most safari operations don't attempt. Book for at least three nights to maximise drives, and splurge on the Royal Panthera Suite with private pool if you want seclusion; cooler months from November through February are the sweet spot.
