Find Hotels in Dechu, India

We had a lovely evening in the camp. The dinner was served overlooking the camp and dunes, we were also treated to a huge bonfire to keep the chill off. We had a cook and waiter on hand to cook for us, which was a special treat. The tents are intact a brick built building with a canvas roof, the internal photos on the web site were misleading, the showers were good but with no hot water. Having said that we had a good time, it’s expensive by Indian standards but for foreign tourists we had good value

Under the stars of the beautiful Samsara Luxury Resort, you feel the nights belong only to you and the arrival of the morning sun having you long for more. My wife an I stayed a one night at the resort and the following night were upgraded to the luxury tents for what would turn out to be an unforgettable experience. Our first day at the resort we were completely pampered by the incredibly proficient and professional staff, who doted upon us at the crystal clear pool. We had refreshing drinks and delicious food from dusk till dawn. Dawn met us with the most thrilling jeep safari over the Dechu dunes. This is an absolute rush!!! From soaring over the epic sand dunes, to a village house visit with an absolutely beautiful little family. Then back on the dunes and pleasantly getting stuck with a sunset to die for. Here we we found ourselves standing still in wonder, while enjoying a cup of tea on the hood of the jeep. The night followed with dinner and dancing back at the resort, and then a walk back to luxury before turning in for the night. Our second day started with more poolside fun in the sun. I had given Harish, the manager one of the most challenging request at a very short notice... could he help us put together a small wedding ceremony out by the Samsara Desert Camp that evening...? No problem. By sunset we were escorted to our Luxury tent suites and welcomed by a camel safari around the camp. Magical!!! Again we found ourselves sharing drinks delight on the rim of the dunes. We then made our way to our private tents and were given the royal treatment soon after. I stepped out of the tent and was in awe of what I saw. The jeep and the entire staff waiting in celebration for our special night. We were driven from our tent by jeep, accompanied by a band of singing, dancing, and drums. The ceremony was as warm and embracing as the fire and Brahman that met us by the fire. We were gently given direction to one of the most beautiful traditions I have come to know
