Types of villas & stays in Lonavala
Whether you are searching for a private pool villa in Lonavala, a spacious farmhouse or a budget-friendly cottage, start with the style that fits your group.
Lonavala: the Sahyadri hill station between Mumbai and Pune
Tucked into the Western Ghats in Pune district, Maharashtra, Lonavala is one of the most popular weekend getaways for people from Mumbai and Pune. Rolling green hills, quiet lakes, ancient rock-cut caves and hill forts all sit within a short drive of each other, which is why it works for a one-night break and for a longer, slower stay.
Staying in a villa or farmhouse in Lonavala gives your group something a hotel room cannot: the whole property to yourselves. You get private space for the family, room for friends to hang out together, lawns or a pool for celebrations, and the freedom to plan the day your way.
Why book a villa in Lonavala?
Villas suit groups. Instead of booking several hotel rooms, you book one property with shared living areas, a kitchen or dining space and often a garden or pool. That makes villas a popular choice for birthday parties, anniversaries, family reunions and corporate retreats.
