About Avadale Masinagudi
Tucked within the wildlife corridor between two celebrated reserves, Avadale Masinagudi is a modest two-star resort that delivers considerably above its rating, as reflected in a guest score of 8.8 from over 400 reviews. Situated on the fringes of Bandipur, the property provides a practical and comfortable base for those exploring the national parks of the Mysuru Region. Rooms are furnished with air conditioning, linen service, and television with cable channels; select units open onto a private balcony or terrace, offering pleasant views of the surrounding landscape. Complimentary Wi-Fi keeps guests connected, while daily housekeeping, a concierge desk, and airport transfer services reduce the friction of independent travel. Designated smoking areas and complimentary parking are available on site. The resort's tour desk can arrange safari permits and excursions, which is particularly useful given that timing is everything in this area — travellers would do well to consult guidance on the best time to visit Bandipur before finalising dates. Toiletries are provided in select bathrooms.
