Near Pune · Near Mumbai
Close to home. Far from routine.
Wake to mist over the Sahyadris, spend the afternoon at the water's edge, and finish the night by a bonfire. Three rooms and a hall, a short drive from Pune and Mumbai, and the whole property is yours.
The best villa near Pawna Lake, made for your crew
Come as a family, a friend group, or a couple who just needs a quiet weekend. The villas give everyone room to rest, and the hall gives you a place to gather, spread out or sleep extra guests. No crowded lobby, no strangers at breakfast, just your people and the lake. .

The Property
The best villa stay near Pune for a weekend is the slow kind
Start with coffee and a lake view. Then fill the day with a little or a lot: a lakeside walk, a long lunch, a bonfire when the sun drops.
