Imagine waking up to birdsong, sunlight spilling over the Kabini backwaters, and a luxury safari hut tucked into nature’s embrace. That’s exactly what we experienced during our unforgettable two-night stay at Evolve Back Resort in Kabini, Karnataka—a retreat where rustic charm meets indulgent elegance.
Where Luxury Meets the Wild
Perched on the serene banks of the Kabini River, Evolve Back Resorts blends seamlessly into the lush landscape of Karnataka’s wilderness. As soon as we arrived, the atmosphere wrapped around us like a warm shawl—quiet, green, and deeply peaceful.
From the moment you step into the property, it’s clear: this is no ordinary resort. This is a place where the untamed wild flirts with five-star luxury.
Our Stay in the Safari Hut
We checked into one of the property’s iconic Safari Huts, and it truly felt like stepping into a dream. The room exudes warmth, with earthy tones, traditional design, and enough space to sprawl out and unwind. A cozy bed sits under a canopy of wooden beams, flanked by beautiful lamps and an oversized mirror doubling as a vanity and workspace.
But the magic doesn’t stop there. The bathroom alone could be a spa! A deep bathtub, rainfall shower, and generous counter space lead the way to the highlight: a private open-air jacuzzi with views of the surrounding forest. It’s the kind of place where time slows down—and you hope it stays that way.
Activities Around Kabini Backwaters
Evolve Back isn’t just about luxurious rooms—it’s about experiences. Over the course of our stay, we immersed ourselves in the wild in the most graceful ways.
- Sunset Cruises: Picture this—gliding gently across Kabini’s mirror-like waters as the sun melts into the horizon. It’s peaceful, photogenic, and a little bit magical.
- Candlelight Dinners: One evening, we were treated to a special candlelit setup. The stillness of the night, the glimmer of water, and the soft flicker of candlelight created a setting so intimate, we wished it would last forever.
- Nature Walks & Wildlife Watching: Though not all caught on camera, Evolve Back offers chances to see elephants, birds, and even the occasional big cat from a safe and respectful distance. The resort emphasizes eco-conscious luxury, ensuring minimal interference with nature.
