Luxury staycations have become the new weekend plans. And not just weekends; as the work from home culture takes over, working professionals who work remotely prefer escaping the city on weekdays for a change of setting. Preferably a calmer, quiet setting, and one that is close to nature. For folks in Pune and Mumbai, Lonavala provides just that – a change of atmosphere and a break from the routine.
This need to escape has been reciprocated by a pop-up of the most gorgeous villas surrounded by hills, waterfalls, and lush fields. To meet the demand of their guests, these villas have a host of amenities and facilities. A guest looking to escape is undoubtedly bombarded with plenty of ads and villa options on booking sites and the choices are endless, and sometimes confusing!
So if you’re looking to book your perfect weekend escape or just a space to work from, then here are 5 things that should be on the top of your list when booking a villa.
1. Great connectivity
This one is a must-have for the work-from-home individuals. Imagine leaving the city in search of motivation and not having strong Wi-fi. You most certainly don’t want that! So great Wi-fi is the first check that you need before you finalize your villa booking.
2. Open Spaces
The point of escaping is the need for space. Especially open spaces in the heart of nature where you can walk around, play, meditate, do yoga, or any other physical activities. So villas with huge lawns or gardens are always a bonus.
3. Swimming Pool
The ultimate therapy is relaxing in a pool while soaking in mind-blowing views the nature around. Whether you are alone, with family, or friends, pools are perfect if you want to exercise, relax, or just to have some fun.
4. Games/Activities
Entertainment is a must. Whether it is a badminton court or just some sit-down board games, some villas in Lonavala provide all of this and more so that guests can have interactive experiences in their free time.
5. Home-cooked meals
Many villas include the most wholesome, healthy, and hearty meals home-cooked by their in-house chefs. Some even make sure to grow their own produce and cook it fresh for the guests. Vegetarian or not, these meals are sumptuous and solve the issue of having to step out for meals.
Other than these top 5, there are various other facilities provided by villas in and around Lonavala.
