The Fern Gir Forest Resort, Sasan Gir

A true hidden gem in Gir with outstanding hospitality from start to finish. Manager Ramesh Patnaik welcomed us warmly and even had snack packs ready so we could head straight to our safari—such a thoughtful touch. The team was fantastic: Anil, Barshana (always warm and attentive), and Verma at the food counter made every meal and interaction pleasant. The evening activities hosted by Siba were engaging and added a lovely sense of energy and community to the stay. We stayed in Villa 110, which was immaculate, beautifully presented, and located away from the main road—completely peaceful with no road noise. Delicious food, genuine service, and a very relaxing experience overall. Highly recommended!

Our stay at The Fern Resort, Gir was truly wonderful. The resort is beautifully maintained, surrounded by nature, and offers a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The rooms were spacious, clean, and very comfortable.||Siba and the entire team were exceptional—warm, courteous, and always ready to help, making us feel truly welcome. The activities organized at the resort were fun, engaging, and well-managed, adding great value to our stay.||The food was delicious with a good variety, and the overall service exceeded our expectations. Its proximity to Gir National Park makes it a perfect choice for wildlife lovers and families. A memorable stay—we would definitely recommend The Fern Resort, Gir, and would love to visit again.

Food was good. The campus is scenic and well maintained. Room was well decorated. Activities enjoyable. Services provided by Dona Pue Rime Barsana Sima bharat Rohan was commendable. |Reception needs to improve on their alertness. Room toilet was having bad smell even after running exhaust fan for 40 minutes.

Location is really good. The property is well maintained and beautiful. Their ritual in the evening brings guests together for some laughter and snacks. Service is great and staff is kind and helpful. Rooms are well maintained and quality is brilliant. |It’s a 5 star so expensive but worth the experience.

We visited many Fern properties, but this one was the best. In terms of the property, it was similar to other Fern hotels, but the hospitality and service were excellent.||The best part was their evening events. They were so engaging that we used to complete all our outings before evening just to make sure we could attend them.||They also made our anniversary very special by providing a complimentary midnight cake. It was very thoughtful. We would love to come back again and again.||Thank you to Abhijeet and Rohan

Overrated Property – Disappointing Service I stayed at The Fern Sasan Gir for 2 nights and booked a villa costing around ₹20,000 per night. At this price point, there are far better options available in the area with much better service standards. The biggest letdown was the service and staff behavior, which was far from what one expects from a property of this category. The staff appears poorly trained, and we had multiple encounters that made our stay unpleasant. One example: we reached the property around 11 PM after traveling for a couple of days and were completely exhausted. The reception staff was rigid about their process—first IDs, then room allocation. I requested them to take the ID of one guest first, allow us to go to the room since my mother was extremely tired, and I would hand over the remaining IDs shortly after. This was flatly refused. A more guest-friendly approach would have been to ask us to sit, offer water or a welcome drink, explain the policy politely, and allow us a few minutes to settle down. Hospitality is about empathy, not just rules—and that was completely missing. The food was average at best, nothing memorable or worth the premium pricing. The only positive aspect of the property is the greenery and landscaping, which is well maintained. Apart from that, the experience did not justify the high cost. Overall, I was quite disappointed and would not consider staying here again. Definitely not worth the price being charged.

We enjoyed our stay thoroughly at the hotel and special tanks to Akshay Kolhe, Barshana, Ashraf Bhai, Shiba, Abhijit, Rohan, Sima for their lovely treatment. Because of each one of them our stay became memorable for life time. We give our love to each one of them from bottom of our heart. Each person is truly indispensable for the hotel. With best love and regards from from Sachin and Archana

The location is good with a nice view, and the room and washroom were also nice. But after I took a bath and requested them to clean the bathroom since it was wet, the cleaning was not done properly. I stayed for two days, and even then the bathroom wasn’t cleaned well. The breakfast was okay, but the dinner buffet was good.
