There’s absolutely nothing better than a relaxing weekend at a beautiful resort overlooking the vineyards, that too with authentic Parsi food. And that’s exactly what you get at Summer Vines, the latest brainchild of famous Parsi caterer Tanaz Godiwalla.
Set amidst the rolling hills and vineyards of Nashik, Summer Vines is a standalone boutique resort along the Mumbai-Nashik highway, away from all the hustle bustle and crowd of Sula and the likes.
The property has 14 luxurious chalet styled rooms, which are air conditioned, spacious and exceptionally cozy. Each room has its own Wi-Fi, flat screen TV with Tata Sky and an open porch facing the vineyards, from where you can watch a spectacular sunrise {if you’re able to get out of your warm and comfortable bed, that is!} or gaze up into the starry skies at night. There’s also an outdoor swimming pool {separate kids section}, play area, indoor games room and reading lounge! So rest assured, you won’t be bored for even a second!
Besides de-stressing at the resort, you can also binge on some amazing Parsi food. That’s right, it’s a buffet so turn your binge mode on!
If you’re looking for something more, you can trek up to a nearby temple located on a hillock and watch a brilliant sunset from there, or take a stroll around the table-grape vineyards surrounding the property.
Gargoti Mineral Museum is also located close by, where you can see a remarkable exhibit of crystals, stones and minerals found in India and the world. The museum is open all day and if you call them in advance, they will ensure that a knowledgeable guide is available for your museum tour {Costs INR 100 per person}. Oh, and they have a souvenir store in the museum too, in case you’d like to purchase something.
What’s more, all guests at Summer Vines get coupons that entitle them to a free wine tasting tour at York Winery! {which, in my opinion is nicer than Sula}. It’s over an hour away though, so I would recommend visiting York after checking out from the resort.
The tariff is only INR 4500 per person per night, which includes ALL meals {breakfast, lunch, dinner and high tea}. Not only is it a peaceful stay away from the crowds, but is also much more reasonable than any vineyard stay in Nashik!
Also, the staff is extremely helpful and goes out of its way to serve you better, so do take into account a small tip that you might want to give them at the end of your stay {optional}.
For details on any of these activities, you can always reach out to Tanaz, the owner of Summer Vines. She's an amazing host, who makes you feel right at home from the moment you arrive, and personally ensures that you have an awesome experience at her property!
In short, Summer Vines is a perfect getaway for families, groups of friends and couples alike, so get ready to escape the city for your well deserved weekend break!
