"As a wildlife photographer who frequently travels across different jungles and wilderness destinations, I had my first visit to Manas Tiger Reserve last weekend, and my stay at Musa Jungle Retreat made the experience even more memorable. After looking through different accommodation options, I finally chose this place based on my guide’s recommendation, and I’m genuinely happy with the decision. The food was excellent, the room service was prompt, and the rooms were extremely spacious and comfortable. Initially, we had booked the Grazing Rhino room, which itself was very good, but since the villas were available, we upgraded — and it turned out to be an excellent decision. The villa had plenty of space, including a comfortable sitting area and a dining space where we enjoyed all our meals. One thing that stood out was the hospitality of the staff. Despite continuous heavy rains, the staff ensured hot food was delivered quickly and properly packed in casseroles. A special appreciation to the kitchen and service staff for their dedication and courteous attitude throughout the stay. The biggest highlight of this property is definitely its location — right opposite the forest. Watching elephants and rhinos grazing from the room itself was an unforgettable experience. And as a wildlife enthusiast, spotting a black leopard barely 100 meters from the property made the trip even more special. The only areas I feel could improve are the bathrooms, which looked slightly worn out for a property of this standard, and the front desk experience, which could be a little warmer and more welcoming. Overall, this is absolutely a place I would recommend to anyone visiting Manas Tiger Reserve."

"Het is hier eindelijk afgelopen na sterke, onafhankelijke aanbevelingen van twee verschillende vrienden en het spijt ons niet. Het bos ligt aan de nationale parkeergrens van Manas en blijft binnen het resort met zijn vele hoge bomen en bamboe groeien overal in het bezit. De mooi ontworpen huizen waren schoon, comfortabel en gezellig. Het personeel was helpend en helpde om al onze safari reizen, inclusief naar de recentelijk geopende Kahitama range en de leuke olifant interactie. We zagen rhinos, die niet zo ver van het huis was, begraven, en de duikende wandeling rond het nabijgelegen dorp Bodo was ook een memorabele ervaring. Ik dank de heer Shakti Singh Shekhawat voor zijn verzoek om een noodgeneesmiddel voor mij te organiseren door een dorpschemist na 9 uur te wakker te maken."

"De accommodatie ligt op 3 km van de banbari poort van het nationale park van Manas. Kamers zijn zeer gewone type zonder tv en airconditioning. Eten was gemiddeld kwaliteit, het personeel is coöperatief. Over het algemeen een goede ervaring."

"This is a good budget resort to stay in Manas. It’s also great for sighting wild animals, as it’s bordering the forest boundary. We sighted a rhino with her cub as well as an Indian bison sitting in the hotel itself. The stay is comfortable and homely. Staff are friendly and helpful. The only complaint is, very limited menu and the food price is exorbitant."
