Why it's unique

Samode Safari Lodge blends into its surroundings, a national park buffer zone and its neighboring village. The lodge provides intimate safari guiding in prime tiger territory.

A dozen breezy villas with private courtyards and open-air baths combine royal charm with design that defers to the surrounding jungle. Enjoy twice-daily tiger safaris where you’ll dine under mahua trees, and return to relax in the spa or swimming pool.
