For those busy bees in Mumbai and Pune sometimes a weekend of netflix and chilling isn’t enough. Sometimes even a whole two days of hiding under the bedroom blankets with your partner, ordering swiggy, and watching the new GOT episodes is not enough to truly relax. That’s why you need destinations like Amanzi Resort, a two hour drive from Mumbai and a one hour drive from Pune. By the way proximity is not the sole allure of this gorgeous getaway.
Individual cabins are speckled around a lush green property that offers sunrise views of Pavna lake. For the lazy lovers a day of spa treatment and sparkling wine next to the infinity pool are in order; whereas, the more adventurous paramours can opt for trekking, kayaking or paragliding, and still get some shut eye on those fancy hotel beds that make your mattress at home feel like it’s made of stone.
The architect behind this desirable retreat is the notable Shabbir Unwala, who is an expert at creating spaces that interact and highlight the natural elements around them. Properties next to water bodies are a speciality of his, the expansive and arced view of Amanzi’s cabins harkening back to Unwala’s Eye on the Lake design, which in his words, “is a visceral response to the (lakeside) site.” If you feel like getting some real rest and recovery this weekend check out their rates here.
