Unwind at our family-friendly resort in Amba Ghat's nature.
Perched at 3,000 feet above sea level, Amba in Kolhapur district is a mist-laden mountain haven tucked deep within the UNESCO-recognised Western Ghats. Located on NH166 at the crown of the iconic Amba Ghat—almost equidistant between Kolhapur and Ratnagiri—Amba enjoys rare accessibility while remaining blissfully untouched. Easily reached from Mumbai, Pune, Kolhapur, Panaji and Goa, this serene plateau lies within a reserve forest and the buffer zone of the Sahyadri Tiger Reserve, Chandoli National Park and Dajipur Bison Sanctuary. Steeped in history and nature alike, Amba is flanked by the legendary sites of Pawankhind and Vishalgad, while the sacred swayambhu Marleshwar Temple, enveloped by dense forests and cascading waterfalls, adds a timeless spiritual depth to the landscape.
The Jungle Resort Amba is a 5-acre haven tucked deep within nature—lush, tree-covered and thoughtfully developed to let the forest take center stage. Expansive green open space, towering trees, and a gentle seasonal stream flowing along the western edge create a setting that feels alive, peaceful, and refreshingly untouched.
Scattered across this emerald landscape are our tastefully placed rooms, swimming pool, adventure activities and amenities, designed to blend seamlessly with the surroundings while offering comfort and privacy. The resort invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and reconnect with nature.
Adventure awaits beyond the resort. Our guided jungle safaris in specially fitted jeeps take you deep into the forest, where our knowledgeable guides introduce you to the region’s rich wildlife, medicinal plants, and endemic flora. As the jungle unfolds around you, you’ll also be transported back in time — listening to captivating tales of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and his legendary escapades in these very hills.
At The Jungle Resort Amba, nature, history, and adventure come together—offering not just a stay, but a story you’ll carry back with you. 🌿✨
