Bagh Serai — Elivaas

About this villa

Tucked into the rugged beauty of Ranthambore, this pet-friendly cottage sits quietly within a 5-acre forest resort where mornings stretch slow, and the wild breathes just beyond your door. It opens into a calming world of whitewashed walls, arched alcoves, and hand-carved wooden furniture. The interiors are cool and minimal, yet rich in detail. From carved teakwood trunks to jaali (netted) windows that scatter sunlight across slate floors.   At its heart is an airy living room, earthy and elegant with cushioned window seats that overlook swaying grasses and distant trees. It’s a space designed for stillness: to sip tea, sink into a book, or simply be. Tiger-print cushions, woven blinds, and the soft rustle of leaves outside offer a quiet connection to the forest around you.   Just outside, a private plunge pool awaits, bordered by earthen walls, shaded by neem trees, and softened by the flicker of lanterns. Terracotta pots and wild creepers lend it a lived-in charm. The adjoining outdoor patio carries the same rustic soul, charpais, a low stone bench, and glowing wall niches set the mood for slow afternoons and starlit nights.   Step beyond, and the resort’s shared spaces unfold like a secret village. A gazebo, thatched and breezy, rests in the garden, surrounded by wooden swings and hammocks that sway in rhythm with the wind. The courtyard, warmed by a glowing firepit, becomes a favourite spot by dusk- ideal for storytelling or sipping something strong under the stars.   The main pool feels more like a forest spring than a resort pool tucked under the trees, edged with tiled pathways and cooled by a native breeze. The stone-clad lounge, timeless and quiet, invites you to pause, while the open-air restaurant lights up with lanterns and laughter, serving slow-cooked Rajasthani fare that feels both homely and indulgent.   From early bicycle rides through guava orchards to evenings of Ghoomar and Kalbeliya swirling under firelight, this cottage is not just a stay it’s an invitation to return to rhythm, to roots, and to something deeply restful.   Note: This property is located in a forested area. For the safety of your pets, please do not leave them unattended outside, as wild animals may be present.     Bedroom 1 One queen-sized bed with a wooden frame | 220 sq ft. | Ensuite bathroom | AC unit | Fan | Mini fridge | Soft lighting | Two small wooden nightstands | Stone flooring | Mirror | Adjacent living room | Attached outdoor patio/balcony | Wooden bench with decorative items | Trunk-style bedside table | Electric kettle | Small wooden table and chairs | Night lamps & ceiling lights | Colourful wall sconces | Fibre canopy ceiling | Wooden rustic doors | Wardrobe space | Located on the ground floor   Bathroom 1 Shower geyser and jet spray | Organic toiletries and towels | Western commode | Bamboo towel stand | Big wooden mirror | Geyser | Hair dryer | Ceramic sink | Wood-beamed ceiling | Soft lights     Outdoor patio  Breezy seating area | Stone flooring | Wooden table & chairs | Earth-toned exterior | Corrugated metal roof with fabric canopy | Lantern-lit mud walls | Lush green field views | Attached to the room     Plunge pool Soft lighting | Daybed with cushions | Majestic trees | Woven cot (charpai) | Low wall enclosure | Lantern-lit mud walls | Wall sconces | Views of the surrounding | Earthy-toned flooring     Living area Stoned window single bed with pillows | Pedestrian fan | Mud walls | Wooden workstation with a chair | Pendant lights | Wall decor     Common areas   Lounge area (Reception)   Wooden sofa set with table | AC & fan | Comfy chairs & reception desk | Wall sconces & pendant lights | Stone-clad walls | French doors & canopy ceiling | Large glass windows with views | Attached common bathrooms | Located on the ground floor     Courtyard   Sunken seating area with warm fire pit | Wooden benches & table | Paved with large stones | Surrounded by a picturesque landscape | Wall lanterns & night lamps | Metal chairs with wooden table | Near the reception     In-house restaurant  Wooden tables & chairs | Unique wall paintings & artwork | Pendant lights & ceiling fans | AC unit | Colored wall sconces | Stone walls with scenic views | Buffet counters | French doors & canopy ceiling | Windows overlooking fields     Outdoor dining area   Thatched roof & stone walls | Wicker chairs with round glass tables | Ceiling lanterns & wall-mounted sconces | Potted plants | Rustic windows, doors & mud flooring | Dining hours: 8 am – 10:30 pm     Kitchen   Fully equipped commercial kitchen      Shared pool   450 sq. ft. swimming pool | 4.5 ft depth | Poolside sun loungers | Tiled patio & surrounding garden | Thatched-roof gazebo with charpais & lanterns | Colorful lanterns & potted plants | Aravali, forest & green field views | Kids’ pool with mud flooring | Dining setups with tables & chairs | Pool timings: 8 am – 7 pm     Common Garden  5000 sq. ft. | Outdoor activities like bicycles | Rustic wooden cart | Seating areas with tables & chairs | Charpais & hammocks | Swings & serene ambience | Soft lighting & lanterns | Guava orchards | Grassy badminton court | Serene pond with blooming lotus plants | Vibrant greenery with Aravali & forest views | Surrounded by trees, bushes & shrubs
