Rooted in Similipal

Our story

Similipal Eco Cottage is a small nature retreat in Lulung, near the Pithabata entry gate—created for travellers who want forest, quiet and warm local hospitality.

Similipal Eco Cottage framed by trees

A sense of place

A simple forest stay with a deep sense of place

Canopied by trees, the property brings together tribal-inspired cottage architecture, practical modern comforts and open-air spaces for unhurried time outdoors.

The jungle stream, mountain views and forest edge shape the rhythm here. Mornings begin with birds and filtered light; evenings invite tea, conversation and the comfort of a freshly prepared meal.

We welcome travellers who value calm surroundings, uncomplicated comfort and a genuine connection with the landscape around Lulung.
