Rising mirage-like from the Thar Desert's golden sands, the Serai's tented hideaway draws inspiration from the royal caravan sites of Rajputana. Just a 30-minute drive outside of the Golden City of Jaisalmer, the camp has 21 white canvas tents raised on plinths of honey-hued sandstone, each with their own outdoor verandah, and some with private walled gardens and plunge pools too.
