About Wild Kasarwadi
Wild Kasarwadi Resort Dandeli sits in Kasarwadi village on Jagalbet Road (Singargaon / Joida belt), about 24 km from Dandeli. Guests come for a forest-edge base with tent, cottage, commando and AC stay options, plus cycling, archery and campfire on the property. Guests typically pick a tent or cottage plan with meals on property, then add Kali rafting or a reserve safari the next morning. Share check-in date and group size on WhatsApp so we can confirm the jungle & pool options that fit your weekend.
Stay details & how to reach
Packages include unlimited veg / non-veg meals with kayaking, boating, river swimming, pool, rain dance, trekking and nature walks. The tiger reserve safari gate is roughly 10 km away. Because the stay is near the reserve belt, loud music is not allowed.

To-do list
A short checklist so the stay and add-on activities actually happen.
Before you leave
- Carry a government photo ID (Aadhaar / passport / driving licence). PAN alone is not enough.
- Pack light cottons, trekking sandals, swimwear and a raincoat in monsoon.
- Share train or bus arrival time if you need a pickup toward Kasarwadi / Jagalbet Road (about 24 km from Dandeli).
- Tell us meal preference, veg or non-veg, and any allergies on WhatsApp.
On arrival
- Check in from 12:00 PM. Early check-in depends on the previous guest.
- Ask which water activities are running that afternoon (kayak, boat, rain dance, slide).
- Confirm any extra safari or rafting slot with us the same evening.
- Loud music is not allowed — the stay sits near the tiger reserve belt.
Before checkout
- Checkout is 11:00 AM. Ask if you need a bag hold after a morning safari.
- Settle extras (safari, rafting, sightseeing cabs) at the desk, not only on WhatsApp.
- Allow time back to the Dandeli bus stand — roughly 24 km.
