A dainty bungalow down a slope, the doors of the villa open into a spacey lounge with comfy divan seating and memorabilia reminding you of a warm vintage time.
With two beautiful stretches of manicured lawns there is ample space for kids to play and your pets to run around. The property has a plantation area with of nearly 28,000 sq. ft., making its spacious outdoors surely a thumb up for a weekend getaway! House of Bliss as our guests call it is perfect for a family get together, a never ending party, a much-needed break, an interesting workshop or an experiential holiday.
The villa houses 2 suites each with a distinct color in itself! The Red Suite and the Green Suite can accommodate 5 adults each and another 5-6 people with provision of extra beddings.
Our multipurpose living room can be used as a conference room for employees, or a little change in the audience and it turns into your personal movie theatre for the family, else a little swish and it can be used as a dance floor for your gang- the projector and sound system does the magical
All three rooms open to the lawns looking out to the splendid hills of Lonavala – an ever so pleasing sight to enjoy the monsoons with your loved ones.
The house is “corporate-ready” with a 42inch Led TV and a well-stationed sound system in the living room that can hold a conference for about 20-25 people.
The villa also adds up to be a pet friendly holiday home, a place your four-legged family member who can be home away from home! Your pets no longer have to be cramped up in a single room when they have the entire property to themselves.

About the Area
Places to see in Lonavala around the property:
1. Tiger point, or Tigers Leap : Basically a ledge with around 650 mts. drop. Oh but the view. The view is breath taking, and there’s a monsoon only waterfall, which is absolutely awesome! Buses are available until 1.6 km away from the actual location, so there’s a little bit of a hike there, but totally worth it.
2. The Lohagarh Fort : It draws you in. No seriously, Shivaji lived here at some point in his life. There are other forts like Visapur, Tunga, Koregad.. which are mighty, imposing, and magnificent to be in.
3. The Lonavala Lake is a lovely sight to see.
4. Goddess Ekvira Temple : located very close to the Karla Caves, the temple is serene, powerful, and beautiful all at once!- Karla Caves, Buddhist Monk Shrines built around 3 BC.
5. The Ryewood Park : because impromptu picnics are fun! Visit Chandralok which is right there to have authentic Gujrati thali.
6. Bhushi Dam & Lion Point : 2 successive fun spots
7. The Duke’s Nose : Trek away!
(these are just the regular touristy guidelines, go off exploring in relatively large groups and find your own little sweet spots around the place!)
