Born from a Family Trip.
Built for Families.
An intimate desert haven shaped by personal memories, boundless dunes, and true Rajasthani hospitality.
Kesariya Desert Resort didn't start with a business plan. It started with a family trip to Jaisalmer.
Our founder came to the Thar with his family and fell in love with the desert—but struggled to find a place that truly had it all: comfort, quality, warm hospitality, and a real family-friendly vibe.
That trip ended with a simple question:
“If we couldn't find a place that felt just right for our family, why not build one?”
That question became Kesariya.
Today, we're a place where traditional Rajasthani warmth meets modern comfort. Where kids can play, elders can relax, and every guest feels like they're coming home.
Kids Can Play
Safe, enclosed dunes, camel rides & open courtyards for endless joy.
Elders Can Relax
Ground-level luxury cottages, easy access & tranquil sit-outs.
Feel Like Home
Attentive royal hospitality, tailored meals & heartfelt Rajasthani care.
“Golden dunes. Breathtaking sunsets. Evenings under the stars. Folk music. Traditional flavours. And moments with family that stay with you long after you leave.”
Our Promise to Your Family
Our promise is simple: no family should leave Kesariya feeling that something was missing. Because for us, a resort isn't just a place to stay. It's a place where memories are made.
