About Aman-i-Khas |
Aman-i-Khás (combining aman, meaning “peace”, in Sanskrit, and khás, meaning “special” in Urdu and Hindi) is an exclusive wilderness camp set in the rugged hills of Rajasthan on the
outskirts of Ranthambhore National Park. The luxury tents are set in a quiet rural area that borders one of the finest tiger reserves in the world. The camp operates from October until the end of April
– the best period for wildlife spotting.
The camp lies on a gentle slope against a backdrop of dry, brushwood hills. Aman-i-Khas is set up for only seven months of the year and is packed away in the hot summer. When set up, the camp blends in
unobtrusively with the native vegetation of tall grasses, scrub and trees.
On arrival, guests are taken by four-wheel-drive vehicle to a walled courtyard. The entrance to the Aman-i-Khas is via a pathway that leads through high walls, opening onto views of the rocky Aravalli
hills that undulate through Ranthambhore National Park.

Restaurant & Bar |
Restaurant: The Dining Tent at Aman-i-Khás is furnished with tables and chairs. Meals are often served in different locations throughout the grounds and dinner is most often
concluded around a roaring outdoor fire that serves as a focal point in colder winters. The camp serves Indian cuisine and a range of western dishes. Freshness of produce is ensured as most of the
vegetables and herbs are grown in the camp’s organic vegetable garden.
Bar: Available.

Room Facilities |
There are ten accommodation tents. Each echoes a rich Mughal style with “rooms” separated by cotton drapes. The tents, set on a concrete plinth, measure 108sq m, and are identical in
design. They are constructed of canvas and supported by a steel frame with the interior walls and ceilings draped in fine cotton. Entry to each tent is through a screened area that contains an armchair
and a dining table with chairs. Beyond this is the centre of the tent that ascends to a soaring six-metre canopy under which lies an oversized daybed, ideal for lounging.
Opening from the central area are three further sections for sleeping, bathing and dressing. The “bedroom” area is fitted with a king-size bed flanked by twin writing desks. The bathing area includes a
shower, soaking tub and separate toilet whilst the dressing area contains the cupboards with hanging space and twin vanities. Cotton screens provide complete privacy. Furniture is minimal and
unobtrusive, mimicking the travelling camps of an earlier time. Each tent is air-conditioned and there is also a ceiling fan and a cooler chest for drinks.
Camp stays are all-inclusive of accommodation, meals and house beverages and run for a minimum of three nights.
