Registhan Guest House Cum Resort

Rejisthan guest house Khuri I visited Rejisthan guest house Khuri on 7 sept 17 after a long survey & reading reviews etc to step into sand dunes. I was on solo long drive from Mumbai- Mount Abu- Jodhpur-Jaislamir (Khuri)- Jaipur -Udaipur -Mumbai. The resort is about 50 Kms from Jaisalmir. The road from Jaisalmir to Khuri was excellent, deserted & will reach destination within an hour. Mr, Kalyan Singh @ the resort manages the show well. He is a wonderful person & all your needs will be sorted out personally. I reached the resort by 4 pm & was offered tea instantly. We could see the dunes right from the resort. @ 5 pm the camels were ready. (camel safari if not included in the reservation will be chargeable). After a 45 minutes ride, we reached the sunset point. The dunes are untouched & high. We could see the sand flowing like water with the wind. The site of dung beetle rolling dung over dunes & the sinking lizard into sand & deers were spotted during transit. I was surprised to the old man handling the camel was talking fluently in English to the foreigners. As we waited for sunset Mr. Kalyan reached the site in his jeep with a music troop who played Rajasthani songs. Post sunset we headed back to the resort where the cultural program with small eats & drinks were ready, foreigners really had a good time dancing with the drums, Followed by dinner. The music was non-stop until the end of dinner. The options were given for us to sleep on sand dunes or on roof top or inside the Huts. I slept on the roof top , witnessed the moon rise, enjoyed the cool breeze & the scream of peacocks occasionally. Later I shifted to the HUT as it was too cold at mid night. Morning we could see lot of peacocks & hens around. After breakfast & tea I left the place. It was a perfect night out @ desert. The foreigners in the group has thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Mr. Kalyan Singh & his team has done an excellent job in creating a memorable day out at a desert hut @ Khuri Jaisalmir. That was fantastic!!!

we have booked 5 rooms over there for 12 persons. We reached there at 7:30 at evening. Evening programme already started, they offered tea to us. As there will be no other option for dinner we had our dinner there only in buffet. They offered Rice , roti, 2 vegetable, karhi and churma. At night their staffs unloaded our luggage from our traveler. At morning we came to know that our laptop is missing. we told them to search but they are saying no staff has taken it. We told them to see the CCTV camera, they said there is no CCTV camera.*Also they are charging 1750 for one person for night tea dinner and desert safari, at last we settled it on 1100 per person. Also they assured us that if they get to know about laptop they will inform us. After two days we call them but they even not recognised us. Overall for us its a bad experience.

The hotel staff told us the route, which had terrible road. On arrival, no one was there to receive us. They neither asked our name nor the booking details. The room which we had booked was too small to accommodate three persons. The mud hut had holes on the roof. We enquired about the camel safari charge, one of the guys told it is included in the package. The camel ride was for about 100m and on the way back, we took the jeep. They didn't tell about the jeep safari beforehand until the payment time came. They were busy catering to foreigners. The food was just pathetic. There was no description about the type of food, ie. veg or non-veg. Later we were told that camel, jeep safari, dance and dinner was included in a package .... Not at all value for money.

the resort is located at a good location. clean area, good service. the only issue was food. not much variety. also the food was ok types. overall good experience and value for money.
