Cheetahgarh Resort
Rajasthan may be known for palaces and forts, but in Jawai, the real royalty wears spots. Nestled in this rocky wilderness is Cheetahgarh Resort, a luxury jungle stay rooted in Rajput tradition, Rabari tribal culture, and the silent symphony of leopards and granite hills.
Land of Nobility and Nature
Cheetahgarh isn’t just a resort—it’s a legacy project. The land belongs to a Rajput noble family, deeply tied to the Jawai region for generations. Unlike commercial resorts, Cheetahgarh is built with a personal mission:
- To preserve the ancestral land
- To honor the coexistence of Rabari tribes and wildlife
- To offer conscious luxury in harmony with the land’s past and present
Villas Designed by Nature
The accommodations at Cheetahgarh feel like earth-sheltered sanctuaries:
- Stone-built villas and luxurious tented suites, blending into the granite landscape
- Interiors with handcrafted tribal décor and natural materials
- Private plunge pools, starlit bathrooms, and decks that open into the wilderness
No loud luxury here — only calm, eco-silent opulence.
The Jawai Leopard Safari
The Jawai region is globally recognized for its unique human-wildlife harmony — where leopards live unconfined in rocky outcrops, and Rabari herders roam peacefully beside them.
Cheetahgarh’s safari experience is guided by local naturalists, not outsourced tourism:
- Twice-daily game drives with open 4×4 jeeps
- High success rate for leopard sightings
- Naturalist-led photography tours
- Walks with Rabari tribesmen to understand their age-old way of life
You’ll spot more than leopards: flamingos, crocs, hyenas, and endless birdsong accompany every journey.
A Sustainable Soul
Cheetahgarh’s commitment to sustainability isn’t for show — it’s a way of life:
- Solar-powered infrastructure
- Rainwater harvesting
- Organic gardens used in every meal
- No plastic policy, even in the bathrooms
They also support local tribal employment, providing dignity-based work and cultural preservation through homestays and workshops.
Wellness Amid Wild Winds
The spa and yoga pavilion here is tucked within granite boulders. Imagine:
- Sunrise meditation to the call of birds
- Deep tissue massages using herbal oils
- Outdoor yoga with panoramic views of ancient land
A true mind-body-nature reset.
