Sterling Naman Bastar, Jagdalpur – A Green Retreat in the Heart of the Bastar Experience
Set amid landscaped gardens on Chitrakote Road, Sterling Naman Bastar is a 3.21-acre resort in Jagdalpur and Sterling's first property in Chhattisgarh. Spread across five room categories and 45 rooms, from comfortable Garden View Rooms to the spacious Indulge Suite and an exclusive Private Pool Villa, most rooms and suites look out over the resort's landscaped gardens, with the low-rise cottages and open lawns giving the property the feel of a countryside retreat rather than a city hotel. Just 6 km from Jagdalpur town, it makes a comfortable base for adventure activities and outdoor sightseeing across the waterfalls, forests and tribal culture of the wider Bastar region.
Bastar is famed for its dramatic waterfalls, dense sal forests and centuries-old tribal traditions, and the resort's location on Chitrakote Road places guests within easy reach of it all. The horseshoe-shaped Chitrakote Falls (approx. 32 km), often called the Niagara of India, and the thundering Tirathgarh Falls (approx. 40 km) inside Kanger Valley National Park are the region's biggest draws, with the limestone Kutumsar Caves tucked within the same forested park. Closer to the resort, Jagdalpur town's Zonal Anthropological Museum, Dalpatsagar Lake and Danteshwari Temple (approx. 7 km) offer an easy introduction to Bastar's tribal art and culture, rounding out a well-planned Bastar tourism trip.
Beyond sightseeing, the resort offers plenty of ways to unwind after a day of exploring. Guests can cool off in the indoor swimming pool, relax with a spa treatment, or keep children entertained at the play area. For dining, Amravan offers vegetarian meals. Whether you're exploring Bastar's natural attractions, discovering its local culture and crafts, or planning a family celebration on the lawns, Sterling Naman Bastar offers a comfortable base for experiencing the region.
