Mahua Kothi

The name Mahua Kothi draws its inspiration from one of India's most beautiful trees, the Mahua or butter tree. The tree has fleshy off-white flowers which plays a central role in festivals and rituals, as the vitamins, minerals and sugar-rich flowers are used in a number of ways. The twelve charming suites or Kutiyas, jungle village huts, are built on 40 acres. Mahua Kothi is not in operation from July 1st until September 30th due to closure of the National Park.

Charming individual Kutiyas are built in the vernacular style of Central India, with richly colored local textiles in shades of rust and burnt orange. Each Kutiya is accessed through private courtyards with shaded seating, traditional swings and mud floors. Ensuite bathrooms feature twin hand basins, indoor shower and bath.

Mahua Kothi offers a variety of dining options including the cart breakfast in the Baghiya, Picnic lunches under the Mahua tree, roof-top dinners under a star strewn sky and discover fresh lime, exquisite teas, fine Indian wines and icy cocktails made from the distilled sap of the Mahua tree.

Guests of Mahua Kothi can discover the beautiful jungle of Bandhavgarh National Park and learn about the rich biodiversity of Central India from a trained naturalist.
