What Makes It Awesome

We found a lovely and sweet little bungalow-cottage in Kashid. You can rent out the entire homestay for a large family vacation or a trip with like-minded friends for one purpose: relax, relax and relax. Read on to know why this must be on your list. 

The property is located in Kashid, and makes for a quick getaway. The destination is only 3-3.5 hours from Mumbai by road and you will cross Alibaug on your way. The other option is to take a ferry from Gateway of India to Alibaug and then hire a cab, however the road option is very viable. The house is extremely well-designed, and has nine spacious rooms, with each room opening up to French windows out to the lush white-fenced garden.

A night's stay for 8 guests comes to INR 16,142 here, and considering the location and how comfy the stay is, the tariff makes sense. La Mer has its own in-house space for food, and is also close to local restaurants. The staff at the property prepare lip-smacking fish thalis though, and you might want to ditch the restaurants around to try that instead. 

The beach is so close by (about 2-5 minutes) that you can hear the waves lapping the shore, inviting you to go on and take a walk. And if you wanted to visit a few local and beautiful temples, start with the Birla and the Rameshwar Temple near the property. The Korlai and Revdanda forts are also in the vicinity, in case you want to hike. 

Pro-Tip

They don’t allow kitchen use, so you will either have to order your food earlier and let the in-house cooks prepare your food or you'll need to step out.
