Reading Lounge

When you step out, we'll help you forget the world you've come from, with a scenic Reading Lounge where you can put up your feet, and lose yourself in any of our coffee table books on wildlife, whilst being serenaded by birdsong and the mysterious sounds of the forest you're reading about. The only interruption in this blissful exercise that you'll welcome is the steaming cups of cappuccino brewed from Sidapur, the signature house brand.

 

Vaidyasala

We also boast an Ayurvedic Spa, the Vaidyasala, where India's ancient healing secrets are put to work in ironing out the kinks in your system. Whether it be a simple rejuvenation massage or therapeutic treatments, our Doctors and Therapists will ensure you return in better shape.

 

Infinity Pool

For a relaxed course on understanding timelessness, spend a few hours in our Infinity Pool, located at the lake's edge. Whether you're paying obeisance in the pool or soaking in the atmosphere at the enchanting Pool Lounge, the azure waters and the russet skies of a Kabini sunset spectacle often combine to transport you to a world where time has no meaning.

 

Dining

Our fine dining restaurant, 'Honey Comb', named after the honey gathering Jenu (Honey) Kuruba tribe, lays out a platter of the cream of international and regional cuisine. Served in a location so bewitching, you'll possibly be an hour early for dinner, just to sit back and watch the sun setting over the Kabini river. In this situation, a case of Nature providing the appetizer for Man's culinary creations.


Orange County's 'Spirit of the Land' philosophy finds its most intimate expression at Kabini where the casual visitor is drawn into the very bosom of the Nilgiri biosphere.

While you are cradled in the lap of luxury, the Resort manages to give you a wildlife experience like no other, and enjoins you to be part of the vibrant social tapestry of the local Kadu Kuruba tribe. Steeped in local lore and culture, and inspired in design by the Hadis (tribal villages), this picturesque resort of sweeping panoramic vistas is bordered on two sides by the Kabini River.


At Orange County, Kabini, we help you get closer to the spirit of the land by offering a platter full of activities that let you choose your activity level and the degree of separation from the wild. So, whether you'd prefer being a spectator or a participant is left to you. All the activities here have been designed around the uniqueness of the location and the local culture, and afford you the chance to exercise both your mind and body. For a closer understanding of this unique ecosystem, we offer boat and vehicle safaris with our Naturalists who would be happy to share with you the secrets of the forest and its denizens.
