The Beach at Mandavi Palace is a deluxe camp, comprising,
ten hand crafted tents. Each tent has its own verandah, spacious
air-conditioned bedroom and state of the art attached bathrooms
with
running hot and cold water. Each of the tents is interior
decorated to resemble the colonial-period camps of erstwhile
royalty with carved furniture The camp has 24 hour electricity
with back up generators.
This camp is located on a private beach at Vijay Vilas Palace,
Mandvi, Kutch. Vijay Vilas is the residence of the Maharao
of Kutch and was originally made as a summer palace for the
royal family.
The beach is a curving stretch
of white sand fringed by blue waters, with windmills on one
side, the Sunset pavilion on the other, and an uninterrupted
view of the sea in front. The sea is safe for swimming and
the beach is ideal for walking making Mandvi a beach-holiday
paradise. Camel and Horse rides on the dunes of the beach
can be arranged.
The camp also has a restaurant
made of thatch and bamboo with a majestic view of the Arabian
Sea. It is a multi cuisine restaurant, serving Indian, Continental
and Chinese fare as well as the local flavours.
The sea-food and tandoori delicacies are a speciality. A romantic,
candle-light bar-be-cue on the beach is a must have! The restaurant
is also a great hit with the Army and Air-force officers stationed
in Kutch and caters to all their important events like Battle
Honour Day, Raising Day, etc.
