Aman-i-Khas 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. It is set up
for only seven months of the year and is packed away in the hot summer. When set up, the luxury camp blends
in unobtrusively with the native vegetation of tall grasses, scrub and trees.
There are 10 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.
