The colourful
land of the Rajputs is the region of Shekhawati, taking its name from
the powerful Shekhawat clan. The l egends
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.
The mystery and
romance of the desert are captured in the unusual architecture of the
resort. Recreated in the style of a typical Rajasthani village, The
Desert Resort is a verdant oasis in the midst of a stark desert
landscape. Visitors to this haven peopled by camels, peacocks, birds and
khejri trees, can experience a whole new world - the aesthetic charm of
the rural without compromising on luxury or comfort.
The Desert Resort
reflects the traditional harmony between man and nature in the region.
Rooms:There
are 60 well-furnished, air-conditioned rooms including cottages and
spacious deluxe suites.
Each cottage and
room is furnished in a distinctive style. The exteriors are decorated
with traditional lime-paste MANDANA or rice-flour patterns which are
redone daily by women from the village, while the interiors are
ornamented with mirror-work and glass beads in myriad colours.
Authenticity blends seamlessly with modernity. Each cottage has a
sitting room and a spacious bathroom, complimented by woven fabric and
hand-made pottery. Apart from the cottages, guests can choose to stay in
the spacious deluxe suites.
