Alright, the monsoon is here already and we are a tad bit late for this post. However, this write up is for all of us, who crave for a quick getaway and a staycation at a property/resort that suits our taste.
I have complied a list of resorts that TTB Experiences recommends.
These resorts are either personally tried and tested or are vouched by our travel community.
Oleander Farms
Location: Karjat
Average weekend rate for one night: INR 15000+ Taxes onwards.
This farm retreat needs no introduction. Spread over 180 acres this resort is perfect for a getaway from the city. You get the best of both worlds with Farm and Luxury! The dining here deserves a special mention as they have a micro- brewery, restaurant, cafe, a pool bar and the prettiest cococart.

Dharana Retreat Shilim
Location:Shilim
Average weekend rate for one night: INR 35000+ taxes onwards.
This award-winning luxury wellbeing retreat is immersed in the tranquillity. Just a three-hour drive from Mumbai, this retreat spans over 2,500 acres of a pristine ancient landscape. This is not your regular resort, its a wellness retreat hence more suitable for couples over families with young kids.

The award winning architecture and design of coco Shambala provides you a holiday for the mind as you connect intimately with the Arabian Sea and tropical jungles surrounding. At Coco Shambhala, everything is a luxury. From the chemical-free infinity pools to the carefully designed and created coconut furniture, the designer and seasonal food menus to the most exquisite Indian textile linens, the books dotting the villas to the fine selection of wines, spirits and craft beers in your personal bar—we overlook nothing.
