Facilities and Activities

In the main building is a cozy library, which is attached to the bar. From the hotel guests can embark on nature walks with a local and experienced naturalist. Birdwatching is also possible from the property.

Environmental and Social Responsibility

Environmental and social responsibility is very important at Khem Villas. The property has been built using locally-sourced materials and skills and is staffed by local people. It also uses its organic farms to produce food used in the meals cooked for guests. 

The property supports two NGOs which were set up by the original owner. Tiger Watch seeks to protect against the loss of natural habitat and tiger poaching, while Ranthambore Foundation provides healthcare and education for surrounding villages.
