The Wanderlust Guest House & Safari

We stayed at The Wanderlust Guest House for a long weekend and wow, we loved it! By entering the building, you feel comfortable and at home. There’s a relax vibe and Padam and the team are amazing. The whole building is well-designed by Padam. They are very friendly, not only showing but living “hospitality”, good advice for things to do (or not) etc. The rooms are very clean. On the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floor you have nice places to take a seat with an amazing view of the fort and the village. The 4th floor is a roof top, where you can order breakfast, lunch and diner all day - the food is amazing and very nice. The guest house offers Camel & Jeep safari’s - we had an overnight safari with Bhoja and Bioro which was more than amazing: a combination of a jeep drive (incl. a visit of Khaba Fort), camel drive and…your own sand dune in the middle of the desert. No other tourists, just you and two guides whom prepare your dinner and breakfast on open fire. No words to describe, a 5-star experience. Definitely recommended! The guest house is located 15 minutes walk from the fort and 25 minutes walk from Galdisar Lake.

Such a wonderful place to stay! The hotel is beautiful, full of charm, beautifully maintained and incredibly photogenic, with the most magical views of Jaisalmer Fort. Trust me, the view is even more impressive from outside the fort! The owner is a truly lovely host, warm, professional and always happy to help. They arranged all my tours, including an unforgettable desert experience. And the food is absolutely delicious! Everything made my stay feel special. I couldn’t have wished for a better experience in Jaisalmer!

Absolutely nothing! Everything was wonderful, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

This property is a great place and you can tell so much pride is taken in it, the new rooftop and seating areas are amazing. We spent a lot of time chilling here and ate many of our meals at the restaurant. The real highlight though has to be the owner Padem - he was the most helpful and kind person we found during our stay. Messaging us before arriving to organise help, then on the day he really went above and beyond to help us when we couldn’t make our planned bus journey to get there. We also did the desert safari through him which has to be our top experience in Rajasthan - it was just me and my husband on the tour, and we had the whole dune to ourselves with amazing freshly cooked food. We can’t thank Padam enough.

The aircon was a bit noisy

It was beautifully clean with hot showers and really comfortable bed. The food was freshly cooked and delicious.Padnam and his staff were so friendly and attentive to all our needs. The rooftop restaurant was a delightful space to relax and enjoy the view of the fort. The wanderlust desert safari was exceptional. It was non touristy and authentic with and the camel ride was such fun. Our evening meal was cooked on the campfire by Nabu and was rice, Dahl, vegetables, chapatti with vegetable pakora to start. Delicious. We slept under the stars on comfy cots with clean bedding and plenty of warm blankets. It was a magical experience. Dawn and the bird song was wonderful and breakfast on chai, fruit biscuits and toast was perfect. A shorter camel riding in the morning followed by travelling back through the desert to jaisalmer.
