The Machan, near Lonavala.

Mystic Machan

This is a magical place nestled deep in the woods of hilly Lonavla (India) with a narrow bumpy entry just enough to squeeze one car through at a time;) And we were rather lucky to get a booking at the Heritage in The Machan with some early bird thoughts.

Built on a sprawling hilly area, each machan is unique and has an exclusive view of the valley and the ranges in the background. We even saw one machan with a sliding sky roof, but nothing quite beats the Heritage;)

Aesthetically designed and attention to detail not just the rooms but the bathing areas too, complete with bathtub and shower in an area filled with plenty of natural light.

Huge glass facades and all wood structure brings the green valley not only to the living room, but every other living space.

There’s even a spiral leading to the open terrace with a grand unmatchable view.

There are exclusive wood areas for breakfast and dining, both having varied choices for the taste buds and a nature trail walk and yoga sessions for added exclusivity.

Simply lay in the wooden floor and end up waking to beautiful bird tweets in the morning;)

Getting to Lonavla is a couple of hours drive from Mumbai, its the last mile to watch out for, so as to not miss the narrow stretch.

Cheers!

Thanks @Petra_M it was quite amazing to see the whole structure supported on strong stilts on a forest hill, and not just one. One from our old school group had briefly visited the place, so the idea of staying there got seeded;) For everything else, there’s always Google Maps!

Cheers!
