Enjoy A Summer Getaway At These Resorts In Mulshi!
Jalsrushti
A picturesque cottage resort amidst lush green surrounding, quaint ponds and clear lakes, Jalsrushti in Mulshi, is almost like a dream come true. The resort has 14 spacious cottages against the backdrop of lemon and strawberry gardens. Eight of these cottages (Jalshup) are fully wooden and overlook a calm blue river, while the rest (Jalaka) are well appointed and have a mesmerising pond view.We hear you can take a rickety bullock cart ride across the property and even request for a bonfire at the front yard for a perfect candle light dinner with your partner. The prices start at INR 10,700 onwards (per night).
Dhepe Wada
Located at Girivan in Mulshi, 45km from Pune, Dhepe Wada is a one-of-a-kind heritage staycation designed to experience the 350-year-old Maharashtrian wada culture in all its elegance and glory. The place houses 11 rooms that overlook a beautiful landscape. Each room boasts of antique wooden doors, arched windows, teak-wood furniture and glass lanterns. The main hall known as Diwankhana adorns seven massive wooden columns and a carved roof resplendent with intricate architectural designs. There is also a five-fold square or a chowk, designed for playing traditional games such zimma, fugdi, mangalagauri, khamb- khamb khamboli and more.We hear the kitchen, too, is pretty old-school and has a chulha, wood-burning kitchen stove, a jate, which is an erstwhile mixer-grinder and a ukhal – an old way of churning out butter using a rumbler. For all your water supply, there is a well! For a single occupancy room, the price is INR 4,000 per person. For double occupancy, the charges are INR 5,200 per person.
