Sterling Holiday Resorts unveils Sterling Ratan Villas Jawai, an elegant jungle retreat set amidst the dramatic landscapes of Rajasthan’s premier leopard country. This marks Sterling’s eighth property in Rajasthan, further deepening its presence in a state known for its wildlife, heritage, and distinctive landscapes.

Strategically located near Jawai Bandh, the region’s prime leopard-sighting zone, the resort offers a seamless blend of raw nature and refined opulence. Situated amidst 30 acres of unspoiled farmland, it caters to those who seek both adventure and serenity— whether tracking Jawai’s elusive leopards or unwinding in its pristine wilderness.

“Sterling Ratan Villas Jawai is a key addition to our Rajasthan portfolio. The state’s unique mix of wildlife and cultural tourism makes it an undeniable choice for discerning travelers. This also brings to itinerary a one-of-a-kind circuit between our Sterling resorts in a Hill-station like Mount Abu, Heritage destination like Udaipur and Wilderness escape like Jawai.” said Vikram Lalvani, Managing Director & CEO, Sterling Holiday Resorts.

Designed to blend seamlessly with the terrain, the resort features thoughtfully curated accommodations, ranging from intimate Jawai Rooms to expansive Pool Villas with private courtyards. Select suites also offer private plunge pools, creating an exclusive retreat amidst the wilderness, and for large families, the 2 and 4-Bedroom Suites with additional large sized bunker beds offer more avenues to relax.

The resort’s culinary experiences celebrate Rajasthan’s rich flavors, with Chulha, an all- day dining restaurant, serving authentic local delicacies like Godwadi Maans and Pather Kutta Gosht, crafted with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Soviet – the bar and alfresco inspired by 1970s Soviet graffiti, offers a bold selection of regional spirits and inventive cocktails, while Robin, the coffee lounge and library, provides a laid-back escape with artisanal brews and fusion snacks.

“Sterling Ratan Villas Jawai is designed to deliver a promise of luxury to our travellers. Our commitment to the product is unmatched, it is carefully crafted to present the charm of Jawai in its décor and facilities. Aligning with the product is our association with Sterling Holidays– India’s leading leisure hospitality brand. We are confident that together we will bring more attention and much needed boost to the destination.” Said Sawai Singh Chaudhary and Siddharth Singh Chaudhary Owners, Ratan Villas Hospitality.

The resort goes beyond opulent accommodations and gourmet dining—it is designed as a gateway to extraordinary experiences. Guests can embark on day/night jeep safaris, led by expert trackers. For those seeking cultural immersion, heritage treks offer a glimpse into the timeless traditions of the Rabari community, whose nomadic lifestyle has remained unchanged for centuries, and a guided visit to Ranakpur Temple, and Kumbhalgarh fort. Guests can also experience private Bush Dinners by the crocodile pond, a surreal setting where nature takes center stage under a canopy of stars.

The resort also caters to wellness seekers with bespoke experiences designed for relaxation and rejuvenation. From sundowner with high tea by the Jawai River to curated nature treks that reveal the region’s diverse flora and fauna, every aspect of the stay is crafted to provide a deeper connection with the land. Whether it’s an expedition into the wild or a star gazing experience, this retreat offers a rare chance to connect with Rajasthan in its most authentic form
