Loved our stay at Earth. Enjoyed the pool, massage in the spa, dinner service, family friendly nightly entertainment. The grounds were amazing and lived our sunrise and evening strolls smelling the fragrance from various flowers. Staff was amazing and our villa rooms were the perfect for our family of 5. Can’t beat the price!

This hotel was welcoming and peaceful. They have a problem keeping the pool clean, I guess it is due to being beside a nature reserve. Overall we found this a fantastic stay, the nibbles after the afternoon safaris are a great idea, and the magic show was very entertaining. We would only stay here if we went to Ranthambhore again.

I would have rated the hotel much more - but I find they have been dishonest with me . The hotel itself is lovely and the food is very good . But we came to do a Tiger safari not sit in their lovely garden. I brought a group of 12 people . There was NO info about booking safaris - despite booking the hotel months in advance . So when I arrived in India 2 weeks before we arrived , I emailed them again . I was told they couldn't arrange it and would put me over to an agent who could. The agent told me we would have to go on a waiting list and let me know a week later - and cost was 7000 per person. - I was very nervous - but they DID get us on - and although one of our jeeps never spotted tigers , I've no complaints . I was told no cantours 2 weeks before - only jeeps. After the safari some of our group wanted to try spot tigers again. They asked the hotel who immediately said they could book safaris at 2000 p/ They could not care less about getting a safari booked , just wanting their agent to make a lot of money out of us. When I told them this, they just kept putting the situation back on agent. Sad

Different hotel experience
Really good nights sleep. Very different earth hut rooms. Not a lot to do in evening as no bar. Magic shows, potters wheel perhaps not enough but a very restful detox hotel near the park entrance

Lovely stay at The Earth at Ranthambore
We had a wonderful time staying at the Earth at Ranthambore. We stayed in Vayu 1 and the space was great for my husband, adult daughter and I. The beds were fine and shower was mostly warm enough. The property is very nice. It was too cold to use the pool. The restaurant was nice and the food was good. They seemed to adapt times and buffets based on number of quests and if guests were on safari, so best to check in with the front desk every day. They did accommodate our daughter's gluten free need. It was a little hard to explain but we worked it out. The hotel had high tea with a very fun magician both nights. They had music on their outdoor stage one night. The musicians were good and the guests seemed to really enjoy it. We were given blankets for our safari and they were much needed and appreciated as it was quite cold. They also made sure that we had breakfast on our return from the morning safari. The property is a great location if you are visiting zones 1-5. It was far for zones 6+. Everyone says the interior zones are the best and the most likely to yield tiger sightings.

Great property if you love nature
This is an excellent place if you are a nature lover. Not much to do though since the main attraction is Tiger Safari which consumes 3 hours max. And best time to see tigers is summers so very difficult to stay outside.

Great place and staff, they made sure we had what we needed, and even went out of their way to decorate a table and make a birthday cake for son’s celebration.

Earthly Experience
What an amazing earthly experience. A fabulous resort that is 5* on hospitality, ambience, service and comfort. Now on my all stays in Ranthambore will be in this resort only. Special mention for Mr Sunil (Ops Mgr, The Earth) for his professionalism and courteous behaviour and the Head Chef. Also the team earth was exceptional

Very beautiful property. The rooms are comfortable and spacious. Staff is excellent. Food is great. Only downside : the water of the swimming pool is uninviting.

Worth it if you want a rustic feel
Nice hotel and a very ecological concept of mud houses. The room phone was not working and you needed to walk up to the restaurant for placing in room dining order in the morning. Overall a great place to stay

Hidden gem off the main trail
Really amazing resort outside of the normal. Very attentive staff, going out of their way to organise also what is not on the menu. Very quiet location with individual house/ villa accommodation. Great kitchen catering both local and international needs.

Achtung bei Buchungen und Stornierungen. Keine Rückerstattung oder Kulanz! Ich bin während meines Aufenthalts in Indien erkrankt und konnte nicht weiter reisen und musste die Buchung daher leider am Anreisetag stornieren. Ich habe das Hotel über Expedia informiert. Kulanz, leider nein. Ich musste alle Tage komplett zahlen obwohl ich nicht da war.
