Desert
Resort

In the heart of Rajasthan,
the colorful land of the Rajputs,
is the region of Shekhawati, taking it's name from the powerful Shekhawati Clan.
The legends of this historic land have been
captured in the murals and frescoes
of its havelis, forts, temples and cenotaphs. Set against this exotic backdrop
is the Desert Resort Mandawa.
A typical day at the resort commences with
an
early morning camel ride, though a full day camel safari is also offered.
Breakfast is followed by a sojourn into the town of Mandawa and the
neighborhood
villages to view the frescoed havelis and indulge in some local shopping.
After a relaxing afternoon swim, ride out on our
jeep safari for a total
desert experience. Return with the glorious setting sun for a sundowner by
the poolside bar.
The rich canopy of the
starlit night and alluring
folk music is the perfect setting to end your day over a variety of cuisines
(which ranges from authentic Rajasthani to Chinese or Continental).
