Savista Retreat

Savista is every bit as beautiful and tranquil as the photos suggest. The home cooked meals were full of dishes unlike anything we had anywhere else in India, and often featured home grown produce, including butter, milk and yogurt from their own cow. What the photos won't tell you is that Savista is owned and managed by a husband and wife team who are some of the most warm, gentle and charming people you will ever have the good fortune to meet.

It is a wonderfully located, calm and peaceful palace about 40 minutes away from Jaipur. The family that is running the Hotel is simply wonderful. They are treating their guests like kings and are fulfilling every single wish. I spent only 2 nights there over a weekend and was happy that I chose the place over a centrally located hotel as the peacefulness there was a great change to the noise in the city.

The seclusion, after a very busy week in Jaipur, this was perfect. The location is beautiful and so quiet, and the food was amazing, all organic and gown right there at the retreat.

Nothing I didn't like

This was an exceptional property with beautiful staff and amazing food. We have stayed in many Rajesthan accommodations and this would rate at the top of our list for overall attention to detail and hospitality. This property is like finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. We arrived in the dark and instantly fell in love. Everything we required for a comfortable stay was provided.

We didn't like having to leave. 2 nights wasn't long enough. It can be tricky to locate, we didn't have too much trouble because we have an excellent driver.

Savista is a piece of paradise in a rural village surrounded by the Aravelli Hills. The rooms are large and comfortable, the food delicious and the hospitality warm and generous. Such a special place
