Such a wonderful safari resort for families. We stayed two nights and it was wonderful. Very clean and attentive staff. Food options were great and our child with a wheat allergy had plenty of options. My wife enjoyed the spa and the kids enjoyed the play area. We will definitely be back again and only stay at Serai.

This is our 2nd time at Serai Kabini. The service is as good as ever! Special mention to Mr Chamraj, a naturalist who works at Serai! Our main intention of visiting Kabini is to spot the big cats! Although we did not spot the Tiger we did see the leopard on our last day with Mr Chamraj leading us. Pls ask for him always… he is our lucky charm 😃 Such warm hospitality by everyone else too! The bf buffet spread is quite good. Hot dosas n eggs being served. A nice touch was the free cycles provided to ride from reception to the rooms. The only issue we had was the AC in our room was not working. We buzzed the reception and someone came to service it a couple of times but it was still not working. Hope they fix it soon.

Terrible Location - I booked the hotel thinking its a wildlife resort, after looking at the pictures and description on hotels website... but this is a hotel located near the river the Jungle is far from the hotel location Rooms - Hotel rooms are very very small and does not offer amenities or any specific service when compared to the high price they charged for the room, its a very very average budget category property charging rates of a luxury hotel or a 5 star, just exploit the customers as there are not many options in this location. Very very bad product does not deserve the price they charge Rules at the hotel - BF, Lunch timings are 2 hours each, pre and post these timings as per the staff only Sandwiches or pizza will be served and since the hotel is in a remote location you will not have any other option to eat Food Quality - They charged price of a 5 star resort approx Rs. 1000 for a pizza and served a Pizza made on Pizza Base bought from a cheap local grocery store, cheap processed cheese and tomato ketchup - even a road side stall will do a better quality product as compared to their food Staff - The Sales Head of The Serai Group is very very rude and ill mannered person, we made a request and he started shouting on my wife Book only if you have money to waste
