wonderful trip to Bandipur

I would like to thank Country Vacations Nagpur for our absolutely wonderful trip to Bandipur which we undertook in June 2011 as a family of 3 including our 5-year old daughter. In particular, I would like to thank Mr. Ashish, an extremely energetic and patient man with absolutely wonderful behavior, who not only dealt with our innumerable queries in the most professional manner but also gave realistic solutions whenever we came across any problems. Not once did he lose his cool and set aside his pleasant behavior. He is an asset to Country Vacations and we are glad that he is the one who is handling our arrangements.
As for Bandipur, the resort is fabulous. The cottages are very well decorated with appropriate theme. The swimming pool is big, clean and my daughter enjoyed herself immensely. We also played table tennis and carrom-board. The karaoke facility was enjoyed by quite a few of us. Food was excellent with a different menu every day. it is quite surprising to get that type of food sitting right in the middle of the forest. There were special decorations made with food items on Sunday like a lantern made with papaya and animals made from brinjals, cucumbers and bitter-gourds. We spent some time on the watch tower also and got to see deer, wild boars and a peacock. In fact, deer can be seen at very close proximity from the dining area. A special mention should be made of the staff at Bandipur, especially Mr. Kumar who manages the reception desk. He seemed to be as enthusiastic and fresh at 10 p.m. as he used to be at 9 a.m. In fact when our safari got cancelled due to rains, we were quite disappointed. however, Mr. Kumar immediately arranged for a small trek which could be done even in the drizzling rain. The staff takes personal care of the guests and even ring up to ask whether guests have taken lunch and dinner. My daughter hurt herself badly and I will never forget how one of the staff there ran with a bowl full of ice to apply to her hands to stop the blood. These small little gestures go a long way in creating happy customers which we definitely are. However, there is one thing that Bandipur can improve on and that is housekeeping. Apart from that everything else was simply fantastic. We would definitely like to go back to Bandipur once again.

with regards,
Sushmita Goswami
