EMERALD
EXPERIENCES
the retreat
Our purpose is to share an authentic and unforgettable escape where you can be at one with nature and see majestic wild tigers in an untravelled part of central India.
Emerald Tiger Retreat is the only visitor accommodation located within a tiger reserve in India.
It is located in the Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve, deep in heart of Madhya Pradesh central India which features the highest density of Royal Bengal Tigers in the world.
The Retreat is tailored to groups of up to 12 adults, with a main lodge/dining area and private, detached bungalows nestled amidst the scrub jungle and overlooking a large natural waterhole.
The perfect place for observing wildlife and enjoying sundowners!

A Great Experience
“From our bungalow window and around the Retreat we saw numerous birds, monkeys, a Bengal fox, Indian hare and many species of deer. A leopard was sighted around our bungalows once during our stay there.
Vivek, the on-site naturalist, is a wealth of knowledge about the local area and entertains guests at dinner with his animal stories. He accompanies the safaris.”
