A boat ride on Lake Pichola, a royal high tea against the Aravallis, a panoramic view of the city from the Monsoon Palace—I’ve experienced it all and then some. But what I haven’t experienced is living in the middle of a forest with a private lake at my disposal. A stay at Chunda Shikar Oudi is definitely one for the books.
