Decent Dining Experience

“The restaurant at Musa Jungle Retreat surprised me with its variety and quality. I particularly enjoyed trying the local Bodo and Assamese cuisine, which added a unique touch to my stay. Despite the restaurant offering a limited menu, I found the food to be simple yet hygienic. The staff was accommodating, packing me breakfasts for my early safaris, which was a thoughtful gesture that made my mornings easier.” view full review

Musa Jungle Retreat is a true gem nestled right at the edge of Manas National Park. The peaceful surroundings and vibrant gardens make for a magical experience, complemented by clean and spacious accommodations. The staff's hospitality is remarkable. However, there are a few minor maintenance issues that could use attention, particularly in the bathrooms, but this didn't significantly detract from our delightful stay.

This resort is perfectly positioned right next to Manas National Park, making it easy to access the park and enjoy nature. The room I stayed in was quite spacious and comfortable, though there were a few bugs, and the staff took a while to address my needs. The dining was decent but overpriced for what was offered. Overall, it's an enjoyable stay with the charm of being close to wildlife, but just watch out for the added charges on food.
