The most lovely, cheerful and helpful hosts we have experienced in India so far! Manish and his family cared so much about our needs, they offered to buy train tickets, helped with booking a safari, called a taxi driver for us and even drove us to a restaurant and picked us up because they were worried about us being attacked by tigers or panthers. We got a breakfast package at 6am, a freshly cooked and utterly delicious lunch with organic spices and ingredients, a heater for the quite cool room... the list could even continue. And we had very personal and intense talks with the family. The room itself was clean and comfortable, covering the basic needs, no extra stuff you don't need. Cozy bed. :) It's located around 11kms from the Fort (absolute must see!) and 800m from a pick up point for the safaris. Some advice: book Safaris upfront as long as you can, and ask for taking part in zones 1-5 as chances to see a tiger are higher than in 6-10. A government ticket is 4500 rupees, all above that is the fee for the agent. If you come by train, a taxi should be around 200 rupees to the accommodation. No Uber in Sawai Madhopur! The Vantage Haveli is a little hidden: On Mount Valley Resort turn to the left, follow the street and turn to the right on the second occasion (around 500m after leaving the main street) - this path is NOT on Google maps! All in all: An absolute recommendation!

Couldn't think of anything.

We had a very comfortable stay. Manish welcomed us warmly and was extremely accommodating with all our requests. He also gave us helpful suggestions for our onward journey. The highlight of our stay was the homely, freshly prepared meals. Dinner was delicious, and the poha served for breakfast was equally tasty. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a warm and pleasant stay.

The hotel is slightly off the main road, and reaching it at night can be a bit confusing. However, this is likely a temporary issue until the roadwork is completed. Additionally, the dining hall is located in the basement, which may be difficult to access for elderly guests. Manish was kind enough to assist my father, who has walking constraints, and even served the meal in his room. His thoughtfulness truly stood out.

We stayed for 2 nights at the Vantage Haveli ran by Manish and his family. We were politely received and got really good care from the whole family as we had some stomach aches. They offered us water and ORS. The room is spacious and equipped with a smart tv, WiFi and a Airco. The shower was hot and we had running water all the time. We liked the setup where they try to have guests enjoy breakfast and dinner together. This created a nice atmosphere to share stories about traveling and off course tiger spotting. We already booked our tiger tours separately, Manesh could have also booked this for us. Even though he did not help us book the tickets he did help us to arrange pick-up from the roadside by the canter. On our last day we misread our train journeys (probably a result of the stomach aches combined with spotting 5 tigers). So we had to rush out during lunch and Manesh did not hesitate to speed us through traffic to catch our train in time. We would definitely recommend coming to Manesh and his family’s run Haveli to experience their hospitality and support their business. Thank you again Manesh!!

There was not much else around, which is also why it is so quiet at night

The owner of the property and the staff who cared for me were just excellent. The owner booked all my 5 safaris in 5 different zones. He selected the best safari zones for me. All well prepared a month before my arrival. On arrival had a warm welcome. The room was spacious. He punctually got early in morning to drive me off to the safari vehicle pick up point on all days. Food was all my choice. The food served mouth-watering and met all my demands (photo). Overall, the whole family took good care of me (Family photo on their roof top attached). I spotted tigers on 2 safaris, at very close range. It was an unforgettable experience staying at the Vantage Haveli! My heartfelt thanks to the owner Mr Mani Sharma!

The property was about 650 meters interior from the main road, a 10 minute walk. But this minimal inconvenience was fully offset by the owner personally driving me for all my safaris to the main road. He arranged all transport needed, including pick-up and drop-off to airport. So, the location is still the best for the price!

Vantage Haveli is a cozy place, run by a wonderful couple, that offers everything you could hope for: warm hospitality, delicious food, and impeccable service. The home-cooked meals prepared by Mr. Manish's wife were absolutely amazing! Every dish was packed with flavour, and it was clear they were made with love, care, and from scratch. Dining there felt like enjoying a meal with family, and it was a true treat to experience such authentic and fresh cooking. The rooms were simple but spotlessly clean and comfortable. After a long day of exploring, it was a relief to return to a tidy and welcoming space. One of the best aspects of staying at Vantage Haveli was Mr. Manish's incredible help in organizing our tiger safari in Ranthambore National Park a few months before our stay. The communication via WhatsApp was prompt and easy. He secured jeep tickets for us in our preferred safari zones, making sure we had the best chance of spotting wildlife. Their local knowledge and connections made the entire process seamless. If you’re looking for a place that combines the warmth of a homestay with exceptional service, Vantage Haveli is the perfect choice. We left rested, happy with the safari and with full stomachs :)

The owner, Mr. Sharma was extremely caring and supervised everything. We asked him to prepare the food like we make at home and he immediately understood our requirement and followed suit. We liked the food very much, including breakfast, lunch and dinner. Given the fact that I hail from West Bengal, I am not used to a lot of chilllies, spices and ghee in our food. In general, in Rajasthan, what I found in other places (like Jaipur, Pushkar and Ajmir), they love these. But Mr. Sharma understood or taste and made them the way we liked. But, in the menu, I found a lot of varieties of dishes. We did not feel any requirement to go and look for outside food. We got all food that we required in the Vantage Haveli itself. Mr, Sharma also arranged for packing sandwiches for us during tiger safari in afternoon as per our request.

I liked almost everything. Only a small cupboard in the room for keeping clothes inside and a drawer would make this place even better.

Incredible real Indian experience! Best food I had on my whole trip in India! Manish was taking care of me with the most honest and friendliest service you can imagine. His awsome employee Narzi (sorry if spelled wrong) cooked always different food which gave me the taste of all dishes from all Indian regions. Everything was clean and quite at night and the Safari was best organized!!! Saw 2 tigers on first day! I'll definitely come back here!

Good location for the visit of Ranthambore National Park. The owner was extremly helpful to find a seat for a safari and other excursion to the park. We had the extraordinary chance to see a mother tiger with its three cubs.... well it has to do with a lot of luck ! Excellent food, freshly prepared and delicately spiced by the wife of the owner..... a real delight ! Quiet place, a foot-walk away from the mainstreet leading to the park entrance. A family who will do there utmost to make you feel comfortable and at home.

One should not expect a place in a green place with lots of vegetation around.....

Manish was very good host, helped us to get a took took to his place, advised us on Rajasthan interesting places and made very good food for us, his location is very interesting for Ranthambore safari as it is very close from a pick up point. The place is very nice and clean and the facilities are good.

It is a bit out of the city if you’re more interested into visiting the city but Manish is very helpful to book took took to get there.

We are experienced travellers stayed in this homestay during our Christmas trip in India. Manish, the owner of The Vantage Haveli, was very hospitable and very polite. I guess I could say we've become friends with him.  The rooms are spacious and clean with a large comfortable bed. It was cold in December and Manish  kindly provided us with room heaters and extra blankets. Even though we are not vegans at all and eat eggs and meat, the vegan breakfasts and dinners at the homestay were quite tasty and varied. Many thanks to Manish's wife who prepares the meals and Manish's son who helps out.  If you are a meat lover, you can walk 15-20 min to the Food Corner, they have mutton and chicken there.  If you are a beer lover, Manish's son can bring beer from the wine shop, please pay him 100 rupees for this service. After the checkout, we needed to stay one more night, but The Vantage Haveli already was fully booked for that day. We found another similar accommodation on Booking.com, but when we reached there, it was very uncomfortable and we went back to Manish again. How happy we were when one of the rooms booked by others didn't have guests arriving and we were able to stay there for one extra night! Manish provided us with his car and driver to drive to Ranthambore Fort early in the morning, where we saw real live crocodiles along the way, and also for a morning drive to Amreshwar Mahadev Temple, where you can see spotted deer up close on the way, after which the deer on Ranthambore safari are no longer very exciting. In addition to this, Manish has a number of other interesting programs in Ranthambore Park, including a wild forest hike. We highly recommend The Vantage Haveli to all!

In general, everything is fine, but it is necessary to make sure that the hot water flows without breaks.
