Jungle Camps India has expanded its Central India footprint with the launch of Palash Kothi near the Tala Gate of Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve in Madhya Pradesh. The 20-cottage property marks the company’s fifth resort in the region and its first foray into Bandhavgarh, completing its coverage across four of Central India’s most significant tiger reserves alongside Pench, Kanha, and Tadoba.
Spread across 25 acres in Village Bijhariya, the resort features an infinity pool, spa, gym, library, games room, and an all-day dining restaurant serving Indian, regional, and international cuisine. Beyond safaris, guests can join birdwatching sessions, guided nature walks, and community interactions with nearby villages.
The property operates under a management and marketing contract, the first such arrangement in Jungle Camps India’s portfolio, allowing the company to enter a high-value location while maintaining financial discipline.
The addition enables multi-reserve itineraries across Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra through a single reservation network, with naturalists and centralised operations supporting seamless travel between Pench, Kanha, Tadoba, Rukhad, and Bandhavgarh.
