Little Rann Resort

One of the best resort i have been to.. the food was amazing… hospitality was too good… we had a good conversation with the owner mr kunal ji and knew about the place nearby in detail.. SAFARI WAS THE BEST PART WE HAD WHICH I WILL SHARE THE VIDEO AS WELL… will be there soon with my family in the starting of 2025… amazing weather and what a great year to end where my soul took the presence in the nature at the little rann resort.. see you soon

This 'hotel' is in the middle of the country side, so no one is expecting high value, but, this should not prevent the management of doing the garden, filling up the swimming pool, decorating the premises .. Food is ok, but no choice, just a plate with basic food, a sweet as desert, no fruit in the morning, no coffee etc. The place and rooms look poor, no matress protection eg, electric wires hanging next to shower. The manager, an ex 'globetrotter' is fluent in French, English and local languages, and helpful, but still the place looks shabby. A simmple hotel can still look good. NO credit cards accepted, we did not know this and were short of cash, no where around to go to an ATM. The so called (expensive 65 euros for two) safari is nice but driving through rubbish (ok we know this is sometimes common) to go and see some wild donkeys which have to be chased by the jeep to get them moving and make it interesting (poor animals).... may be this place can be skipped in Gujarat. Sunset though is beautiful in Kutch...

Travelling independently with our own car and driver, we arrived at Little Rann Resort to be greeted warmly by the owner and his staff. Our room was large with a “sit out”, the photos on the website give you the impression that there is road right outside the rooms. It IS, but only for the jeeps to park. NOT a real road !! We were given a delicious lunch, including hot gulag jam for pudding. Too much for us but most welcome. We took one of the jeeps out at 4.30 with four Indian National and a good English speaking driver/guide. Good views for everyone. Saw lots of wild ass and birds. Very peaceful, not a line of vehicles making a disturbance to the wildlife. Went to a salt panning area, and shown how salt is collected by hand. Two families with children working very hard in very austere circumstances. They gave us tea in paper cups which was very welcome. Came back and en route saw large numbers of flamingos and waterfowl. Supper was delicious and served by very smiley local staff. All in all can’t fault the place. Well organised, clean and very friendly. Thank you.

Little Rann of Kutch is very near Ahmedaad, and a good weekend getaway. It's nice, quiet place away from humdrum of the cities. It is home to many species of birds, including migratory, animals and only sanctuary for wild ass in India. It is a vast expanse of dry land, mostly sandy, with a few water bodies. Little Rann Resort is a nice resort run professionally by Kunal, who is a good host. They arrange safaris which are worth taking. The drive through the Rann is invigorating. The drivers of the safari are knowledgeable and act as guides. The rooms are clean and spacious. They provide simple, home like food which is good. It was a nice experience, worth repeating.
