Lonavala best resorts | Budget friendly luxury resort | With every Details
INTRODUCTION :
Life amid chaos and hurry burry, the same old routine, some unchallenging jobs makes us all boring and life meaningless.
Sometimes i wish only that i had extra time in day apart from 24 hours. Time flies and the realization that we did’nt enjoy a minute satisfactorily in day makes my heart break.
Some best moment to reboot your system thereby making the routine life easier and motivating is to often take a break as and when possible. Few places where times passes as slow as an 100 year old tortoise or most laziest sloth can be making a trip to nature.
Hill stations, Beach, mountains, river side camping and going to village. these are the places where time can be under your control or you can be ahead of time.
This article features about my family trip to lonavala ( A very popular hillstation near mumbai) :-
- The easiest way to reach lonavala is by train and takes 1h 28m. Trains like Tapovan Express – 07618, BJP fast pass – 51029, Panvel Ned Express, LTT COA express are few you can prefer to travel. Upon arrival at lonaval railway station the drivers may charge you a hefty amount. so take note of it.
- While planning for a road trip from Mumbai it may take between 2-3 hours depending on the traffic and how far is your resort located from the downtown center.

OUR EXPERIENCE :
PROS :
>>>> We enjoyed the stay. Initially i was concerned about how secured the place could be. But later upon enquiring the guards they said its a local area and surrounded by village. All the 6 exit points of the resort were guarded by the security who work in shifts. The owner also happens to stay within the building itself.
>>>> Food was no problem at all (the ones we tries). Water was not hard and salty either. Towels and soap were provided. You can ask for anything like freshener, detergent, shampoo, etc.
>>>> No smoking/drinking in the resort property. Inside the room it is allowed.
>>> Children friendly area. family friendly resort. Decent Bachelors might be allowed, as far as my knowledge they allow only married men visiting in groups.
>>>> Maids come upon informing the manager. Since we cooked our meals they used to come and clean the dishes as and then. Housekeeping is done on regular basis. All basic cooking utensils are provided and if you need more you can request them. depending on the availability of the same they will arrange for it.
