Escape to Paradise: Chitwan's Park Safari Resort Awaits!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the wilds of…well, not exactly the wildest wilds, but Chitwan's Park Safari Resort! This ain’t gonna be your sanitized, cookie-cutter hotel review. Prepare for some honest, possibly rambling, and definitely opinionated observations. After all, who needs a sterile review when you can get the real deal?
Escape to Paradise: Chitwan's Park Safari Resort Awaits! - The Honest Truth (and it's a Mixed Bag, Folks)
Let's be upfront: this place is selling an experience. The "Escape to Paradise" tagline? Yeah, they're aiming high. And, look, there's flashes of paradise. But there's also…well, you'll see.
First Impressions & Accessibility: The Initial Hurdle
Firstly, navigating this place is possible. The entry point is a little tricky. It's not perfectly designed for everyone. I'm not personally a wheelchair user but I spotted some ramps, and it seemed mostly accessible, though the terrain is…Chitwan-esque. Think a bit uneven. The website promised stuff, and from what I saw, they deliver most of it.
- Wheelchair accessible: Seemed to be a good level.
- Accessibility: A bit clunky with the pathway and roads.
- Getting Around: Uh, taxi is gonna have to get you there!
The Tech Situation: Wi-Fi & Beyond
Okay, let's talk connectivity. In today's world, Wi-Fi is basically air. Escape to Paradise understands this, mostly.
- Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Okay, good. I needed to Instagram my first jungle sunset. The connection? Hit or miss. Think sporadic bursts of connectivity, followed by periods of…digital silence. (Could be a blessing, depending on your perspective.)
- Internet, Internet [LAN]: Didn't even bother with the LAN. Wi-Fi was enough of a gamble!
- Internet services: They offer internet services, sure. Just don't build your travel plans entirely around them.
- Wi-Fi in public areas: Better, but still…Chitwan-speed Wi-Fi. Embrace the disconnect, right? (Or bring a pocket Wi-Fi, just in case.)
Cleanliness & Safety: Post-COVID Considerations (and My Mild Neurosis)
Look, I’m a germaphobe. I'm not saying I scrubbed my luggage with disinfectant, but…I brought extra wipes. So, how did Escape to Paradise handle the pandemic era?
- Anti-viral cleaning products/Daily disinfection in common areas/Rooms sanitized between stays: Gave me some peace of mind.
- Hand sanitizer: Everywhere. Good.
- Staff trained in safety protocol: They seemed to be, though I didn't audit their training manuals.
- Physical distancing of at least 1 meter: Attempted, with varying degrees of success. Again, it's Chitwan. Space is…a suggestion.
My Quirky Observation: I saw a cleaner constantly wiping down the elevator buttons. Bless their heart.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: A Culinary Safari (with Some Hiccups)
Food is key, am I right? Escape to Paradise offers a lot of options, but the execution is…varied.
- Restaurants: Yes, plural! (Though, to be fair, they all felt like part of the same place.)
- Breakfast [buffet]: The buffet was…well-stocked, though the lines for fresh omelets could get long. I’m talking a “hangry-tourist-eyeing-the-chef” long. But when I got one the local cuisine available was amazing.
- Breakfast takeaway service: Offered. Perfect if you need to hit the jungle trails early, or avoid the omelet line.
- Asian breakfast/Asian cuisine in restaurant: Pretty solid, actually. The noodles were a guilty pleasure.
- International cuisine in restaurant/Western cuisine in restaurant: Safe but not exactly exciting. More like "comfort food" to soothe the brave adventuring soul.
- Coffee/tea in restaurant: Coffee was…weak. Tea was better, but I missed my proper espresso.
- Poolside bar/ Happy hour: Yes, and Yes. The pool bar was great! Nothing like relaxing with a cocktail after a long day of the jungle.
- Snack bar/ Bottle of water: The snack bar was basic, but water was free and plentiful.
- Room service [24-hour]: A lifesaver after a particularly adventurous (and muddy) afternoon.
Honestly: Don't expect Michelin-star dining. But you will find something to eat. And the pool bar cocktails? They’re the real stars.
Ways to Relax (and Sweat): The Spa & Fitness Factor
Alright, let's see if they deliver on relaxation. I'll be honest I skipped the spa.
- Fitness center/Gym/fitness: Okay, it exists. Don't expect state-of-the-art equipment. More like: treadmills and dumbbells that have seen better days.
- Pool with view/Swimming pool [outdoor]: The pool is lovely. The view is lovely. Pure bliss on a hot day.
- Spa: Yeah, that’s where I bottled. But I did see: Body scrub/ Body wrap/ Foot bath / Massage / Sauna / Spa/sauna /Steamroom.
- Spa/sauna A bit rough around the edges but okay.
My Rambling Anecdote: I did spend about an hour bobbing happily in the pool, staring up at the sky. That, my friends, was paradise.

Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into a chaotic, glorious, probably slightly sweaty adventure in Park Safari Resort, Chitwan National Park, Nepal. Forget those sterile itineraries, this is the real deal. Prepare for some rambling, some questionable decisions, and a whole lotta jungle fever.
Day 1: Arrival and the Great Bug Invasion (Maybe Not That Dramatic, But Still…)
Morning (7:00 AM - 10:00 AM): Kathmandu Airport to Chitwan! Ugh, Kathmandu traffic. Let's just say it involves more honking than a clown convention and more exhaust fumes than a diesel factory. We're gonna ditch the chaos and head towards the airport. We finally board our teeny tiny plane to Bharatpur (Chitwan), feeling simultaneously thrilled and terrified. Tiny planes are NOT my comfort zone, okay? But the views? Chef's kiss. Mountains, clouds hugging the peaks… Absolutely stunning.
Mid-day (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Bharatpur airport. Transfer to Park Safari Resort. Oh, the resort! My expectations were already high. I'd seen the photos, the promise of luxury in the heart of the jungle. And… it mostly delivered. The greeting, after a bumpy truck ride was warm and welcoming. Cold towels (bliss!) and fresh juice, the place looked beautiful. We settle in, and I swear, the first mosquito that dared to buzz past my ear was met with a murderous glare. They're coming for us. I can feel it.
Afternoon (12:00 PM - 4:00 PM): Lunch at the resort. The food? Wonderful. I'm talking plates piled high with Nepali thali - Dal Bhat, curries, the works. Okay, I might have been a little overzealous with the chili. My nose was running, my eyes were watering, and the friendly waiter just chuckled. "Spicy, yes?" Yup, buddy, you have no idea.
- Afternoon (4:00 PM - 6:00 PM): It's a nature walk or jungle tour, time to get properly acquainted with the area. I’d read all about the Chitwan National Park and the wildlife. We started our walk, and my first thought was definitely: "Where are all the animals?!" But then – a rhino! Okay, a fleeting glimpse of its backside disappearing into the bush, but still!
Evening (6:00 PM - 8:00 PM): Tharu cultural program. This was the highlight of the day! The dancers, the music, the vibrant costumes… I was mesmerized. There was so much joy in their performances! I was utterly swept up in it.
Evening (8:00 PM onwards): Dinner and collapse into bed. It was all so exhausting in the best way possible. Despite my previous apprehension, I was so happy.
Day 2: Elephant Back Ride and the Quest for the Elusive Tiger
- Morning (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM): Jeep Safari. Ugh, the early wake-up call. But it’s worth it, right? We climbed in a jeep, bouncing our way through the jungle. The air was thick with mist and the promise of adventure. The morning dew settled on our faces. It was beautiful.
- Morning (9:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Elephant back safari. The elephant, 'Ganga', was gentle and HUGE. Felt like a king or queen. The views from up there were spectacular.
- Afternoon (12:00 PM - 1:00 PM): Lunch at the resort. It's time for a big lunch at the resort and rest.
- Afternoon (1:00 PM - 4:00 PM): Visit the Elephant Breeding Centre. This was a fascinating experience. The babies were adorable, albeit a bit boisterous. I think one of them bumped into me, which I'm choosing to interpret as a sign of affection.
- Late Afternoon (4:00 PM - 6:00 PM): CANOEING! On the Rapti River. I'm not the most graceful person, and the thought of tipping over into the croc-infested river wasn't exactly high on my list. But seeing the crocodiles sunbathing on the banks? Priceless. We saw so many gorgeous birds too.
- Evening (6:00 PM - 8:00 PM): We had the chance for a bonfire! It had been a long day.
- Evening (8:00 PM onwards): Dinner, and then, the utter disappointment. No tiger sightings. Zero. Zilch. Nada. I was crushed. I'd prepared, I’d looked for signs, and I was SO ready to say, "I have seen the tiger!" But alas.
- Night: (10:00 PM): Exhausted but thrilled, I got into bed and reflected.
Day 3: Farewell Chitwan (And a Vow to Return)
- Morning (7:00 AM - 9:00 AM): Another nature walk. And guess what? We saw more rhinos! And some deer. And some monkeys. Okay, still no tiger, but I’m starting to think that they're just incredibly good at hide-and-seek.
- Morning (9:00 AM - 10:00 AM): Breakfast. Loads of delicious food!
- Morning (10:00 AM - 11:00 AM): Some relaxing time. The last chance to soak in the view and chill
- Afternoon (11:00 AM - 1:00 PM): Transfer to the Bharatpur Airport. Sigh. Time to face the music. The plane ride.
- Afternoon (1:00 PM onwards): Arrive back in Kathmandu. Bye-bye, jungle life. Hello, Kathmandu concrete jungle.
The Verdict:
Chitwan was incredible. Messy? Yes. Chaotic? Absolutely. But entirely worth it. I didn't see a tiger, but I saw something even better: pure, untamed beauty. I came back tired, windswept, and a little buggy bitten, and I wouldn't trade this trip for anything. I'll be back, Chitwan. You haven't seen the last of me. And next time, I'm finding that damn tiger. You hear me, tiger? Just you wait. 😉
