Khem Villas – Ranthambore
Khem Villas is more than a wilderness lodge—it’s a sanctuary where the jungle speaks softly and luxury listens. Set on rewilded terrain bordering Ranthambore National Park, this family-run retreat invites guests into a world where conservation is the core philosophy and comfort is delivered with grace. Whether you choose to stay in an elegant tent, a handcrafted cottage, or a villa surrounded by tall grasses, every space is designed to disappear into nature. The absence of television and meat is intentional—creating a stillness that allows you to truly hear the forest. Each candlelit meal celebrates simplicity and flavor, with organic vegetables and herbs cultivated right at Khem Villas.
Accommodation at Khem Villas, Ranthambore
Luxury unfolds in the wild at Khem Villas, where guests choose between villas, cottages, tents, or lodge rooms for a tailored retreat.
Villas
The two exclusive villas at Khem Villas offer a heightened sense of privacy and indulgence. Perched gently above the forest floor, these spacious retreats come with expansive sun decks perfect for birdwatching or private lounging. Open-air Jacuzzis surrounded by wild grasses add a luxurious touch, allowing guests to soak under the stars. Inside, the villas are tastefully furnished with natural materials, large glass doors to bring in daylight and forest views, and ensuite bathrooms featuring both indoor and outdoor bathing spaces.
Thatched Cottages
Tucked amidst trees and flowering shrubs, the thatched cottages offer an earthy, rustic luxury. Built using natural materials like local stone and wood, each cottage features a large sandstone bathroom, open-to-sky shower, and a spacious veranda that opens out to peaceful gardens or ponds. Interiors are minimalist and soothing, with handcrafted furniture, soft lighting, and a calming palette that reflects the surrounding landscape.
Luxury Tents
Reminiscent of the colonial hunting era, the luxury tents at Khem Villas sit elevated on wooden platforms and open out to wild grasslands and native trees. Designed for those who want to be close to nature without compromising comfort, these tents feature comfortable double beds, writing desks, attached bathrooms, and outdoor seating areas. Their canvas walls and gentle flaps allow you to fall asleep to the natural rhythms of the jungle—rustling leaves, distant animal calls, and the occasional roar.
Main-Building Rooms
Located within the main lodge, these cozy double rooms are ideal for travelers seeking comfort and convenience. Overlooking tranquil ponds and just steps away from the property’s bar, library, and lounge area, they offer a homely charm. Each room is tastefully appointed with essential furnishings, ensuite bathrooms, and windows that frame serene views of the garden or water bodies, making them perfect for quiet relaxation after a safari.

Wellness & Leisure
Khem Villas invites you to slow down and embrace the rhythms of nature. Indulge in soulful therapies at the Age-Veda Spa or stretch into stillness with guided yoga amid birdsong. Between safaris, dip into the plunge pool or unwind with a book in the rustic library lounge. Evenings come alive with fireside conversations under starry skies.
