Inside Six Senses Fort Barwara: Fort Turned Luxe Oasis

Step into a 14th-century fort turned into a luxury retreat at the Six Senses Fort Barwara in this installment of my Best Hotels & Resorts in India series. From palatial suites and a jaw-dropping welcome to a poolside pottery class (really), I’m exploring whether this isn’t just India’s best luxury fort—but its best luxury resort.

With lush courtyards, lantern-lit dinners, and even a $3 champi head massage, Six Senses Fort Barwara brings opulence and authenticity together in a way few places can.

Just under three hours from Jaipur International Airport and an hour from Ranthambore National Park, this 48-suite resort blends history and modern indulgence. Two palaces, two temples, and a sprawling spa define the grounds, while three bars and two restaurants offer everything from Mediterranean bites to Indian specialties. And the pool? A serene courtyard escape with a heated jacuzzi, though I wish they’d thrown in an adults-only option for some added zen.

In this video, you’ll see why this resort has become a standout in India’s luxe hotel scene. I’ll take you inside its jaw-dropping suites, share my favorite spaces, including a sublime lantern-lit courtyard, and, as always, point out a few areas where the resort could step up its game. Whether you’re dreaming of a tiger safari or just a getaway steeped in history, this might be your next escape. Don’t forget to check the description for details on how I can help you plan your own adventure—because booking shouldn’t be the hardest part.
