A Memorable Stay at Red Earth Kabini
I recently stayed at Red Earth Kabini and had a wonderful experience. The location is breathtaking, with a stunning view of the kabini backwaters and a calm, peaceful atmosphere that’s perfect for unwinding. The sunset views and the serene atmosphere, apart from the coracle ride were the unforgettable highlights of our trip. The hospitality of the staff stood out—they were warm, welcoming, and always ready to help, which made the stay even more special. The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-maintained, and the in-room TV had access to Netflix, Prime, and other OTT platforms which was a nice bonus for relaxing indoors. The open-air Jacuzzi experience was decent, though there were a couple of minor issues. Warm water was available only between 6–9 PM, and due to the natural setting with red earth surroundings, there were some ants and small worms around despite cleaning efforts. While this is understandable given the earthy, open setup, it’s worth noting for those who are particular about such things. We also went on a jungle safari (paid separately), which was a good experience even though we didn’t spot a tiger during our early morning ride from 6–9 AM. Overall, it was a perfect mix of nature, comfort, and relaxation.

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and heartfelt review of your stay at Red Earth Kabini. We’re delighted to hear that the serene backwater setting, sunset views, and coracle ride made your experience memorable. Your appreciation for our team's hospitality, the well-maintained rooms, and thoughtful touches like access to OTT platforms truly means a lot to us. We also thank you for your observations regarding the open-air jacuzzi. While the natural, earthy setting does come with occasional encounters with insects, we understand the importance of comfort and will continue improving our efforts to manage it better. Your feedback on hot water timing is also noted and will be reviewed by the team. We're glad you had a fulfilling jungle safari — even without a tiger sighting, the forest’s quiet drama has its own magic. We hope to welcome you again soon. Do also consider exploring our other Red Earth retreats in the Nilgiris, Gokarna, Tadoba, and Wayanad — each one offers a unique blend of nature and comfort. Warm regards, Team Red Earth
awesome stay
Our stay at the Rad Earth was exceptional. The staff was incredibly friendly and efficient, especially the front desk team, who were always helpful and responsive. The room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, with a comfortable bed and nice amenities. The location was also great, within walking distance of many attractions. The only minor issue was the breakfast buffet, which could have had more vegetarian options. Overall, I highly recommend the Red Earth for its excellent service, comfortable accommodations, and prime location

Very good Experience
Overall Experience at Red Earth was Very good. All the Resort Team were very Courteous. Resort is full of Trees and Nature which was rejuvenating. Cottages were spacious and a private jacuzee. Bathrooms are very Huge. would have like to have Bath Tub. The major highlight is the Kabini river/ backwater so adjacent to the Resort which is just a few steps away. you can see the illuminated Kabini Dam from the backside in the evening when it is dark. The Food was very good. They have a excellent spread of Buffet and also accomodated to prepare Jain Food. The Jeep safari in the afternoon was one of the Best experience we could have with 2 Tiger sightings, Elephants, indian gaurs, wild boars and lot of Deers and Birds. Walking around the property in the night was so much peaceful and you can sit around entire night look and hearing the Nature. With so many Trees and plants around has some drawbacks as there would be flies and insects around which is very difficult to control. Team can increase a bit more lighting to move much more easily and also around the Coffee point on the Backside. Due to hectic schedule could not explore many more amenities like pool, Nature walks, Bird Watching etc. Cost is a bit on the Luxurious side and definitely would be great if can become more affordable for frequent visits Overall had a great time. looking forward for the next adventure...

Raw nature ambience of resort, food is really good, location, flora and fauna and well behaved staff are positive side of it. Needs improvement in cottages jacuzzi & washrooms. The cost of stay is a bit overpriced for the current improvements needed.

Disappointing!
As much as i appreciate the eco centric principles of the property, i do think the rooms and the common areas require a little more tlc. The luxury cottages need some repairs and the outdoor area attached to the cottages are not of much use. For the tariff being charged for the rooms the experience is not justified.

Poor Stay
Though the place has all the facilities along with good food, we were disappointed as our evening got spoil t waiting for jacuzzi to have hot water and to fill up, which never happened. On calling the reception, maintenance there was no response or help. We had to go till the front desk to seek help but here was nobody there either. The luxury cottage which we had opted was with jacuzzi, to be operational between 6pm to 9pm, our ask and expectations were well within the offered time slot. Secondly, as a part of the package there was assured early checkin and late check out, which was not made available as they were running on full occupancy. 34k for. One night with an entire evening getting wasted has been very disappointing.

Regarding early check-in and late check-out, these are always subject to availability, and we apologise that we were unable to accommodate your requests due to full occupancy.

Mixed feelings and experience about red earth kabini
Our stay at red earth was rather mixed. Cons : 1. The room had termites behind the bed and the room cleanliness was a sham. 2. The in-room jacuzzi not working properly. 3. The path to our room was not lit properly which can be a concern since it's full of greenery and with it comes insects and reptiles. 4. A frog right outside our door with porch light not working. 5. One of the guests claimed that there was a snake outside the bathroom, the resort denies it, we personally haven't seen it, so can't confirm. 6. You might assume the jungle safari jeep is only for hotel guests, but upon reaching the national park, you might find more people being accommodated stating it's a 10 seater. Pros : 1. Restaurant was very accomodative and helpful of our jain food request. 2. Spa experience was good. 3. Huge property and since the resort is on the banks of river kabini it is refreshing and peaceful.

Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We sincerely regret the issues you encountered with room cleanliness, the jacuzzi, and lighting, and we are addressing these concerns to improve our guest experience. As a jungle property, encountering wildlife such as frogs is part of the natural experience we offer, and we appreciate your understanding on this. Regarding the jungle safari, these are managed by the forest department, and exclusive safaris cannot be guaranteed, as they accommodate multiple guests. We truly appreciate your kind words about our restaurant’s accommodation of your dietary needs, the spa experience, and the peaceful, refreshing environment by the Kabini river. We look forward to welcoming you again — or perhaps at one of our other retreats in the Nilgiris, Gokarna, Tadoba, or Wayanad. Warm regards, Team Red Earth
Enjoyable weekend getaway with family
Resort is right in the middle of a natural setup. Really good food. Rooms can be better, but for a remote place, it is great. One might face network issues on this area. Wifi is available in the rooms, but not in the restaurants. Great view of the river from the cafe.

Poor Stay
The property was good. The food was average. The Jacuzzi in the room were not working.We were informed that Hot water in jacuzzi is available only from 6pm to 9pm. On using the jacuzzi the hot water was not coming and upon asking the housekeeping we were informed that the hot water was finished due to all rooms being occupied. The snooker table mat was also torn. the rooms were also not very clean. The air-conditioner kept dropping water the entire night on my bed making it difficult to sleep. It was not at all the value for money that we paid
