NOW SAVOR THE JAPANESE TREE HOUSE CHALET EXPERIENCE

New Year’s Eve At Rumourss Sky Villa, Lonavala

Ring out the old, ring in the new,

Ring, happy bells, across the snow;

The year is going, let him go;

Ring out the false, ring in the true.

Alfred Tennyson

Mumbai: New Year’s Eve is a momentous occasion for a Mumbaikar. No city in India celebrates the festival with as much verve and vigor as Mumbai. Every resident is on the lookout to usher in the New Year with as much exuberance and uniqueness as possible. For most, this day is the epitome of an entire year.

This New Year’s Eve, eight lucky families (or a group of two to four pax) will be able to enjoy the Japanese Tree House Chalet experience for the first time in India. Rumourss Sky Villa, India’s first resort built on the lines of Japanese Tree House Chalets, has laid out a fun filled evening that includes unlimited dinner and a pool party under the stars for its patrons at very attractive rates.

“Our focus is on creating an experience rather than a New Year event. We encourage our guests to check in at noon and experience our hospitality till check out time the next day. Most parties held in Mumbai are claustrophobic in a manner of speaking. When you go to a dinner, discotheque or a pub, you are surrounded by walls on four sides and roof over the head. At our resort, we will be offering a surreal experience under the stars, alongside a party lit swimming pool, in the lap of nature. Located on the foothills of a mountain with a magnificent lake on the other side, Rumourss is set on one of the most picturesque locations of Lonavala,” says Mr. Devang Badiani, Managing Director, Rumourss Sky Villa & Resort Pvt. Ltd.

The New Year rentals at the resort are priced at Rs.33,024/- for the Sky Villas and Rs.30,656/- for the Earth Villas with early bird booking discount of 10 per cent. This includes accommodation for two to four pax in each villa, a gala dinner with starters and drinks, next day breakfast, free Wi-Fi and taxes. With a usable area of 400 sq. ft., each villa comes with a spacious balcony, a cozy attic with double mattress, 50 inch LED television, room service and many other standard and exclusive amenities.

“One of our most important highlights is privacy and exclusive service. In the entire resort covering an area of one acre, we have constructed only eight villas. Four of them are sky villas and four are earth villas. This enables us to provide quality service to each of our guests,” adds Mr. Badiani. “Another big differentiator is that we are a pet friendly resort. This New Year our patrons will be able to party with their pets as we not only permit the entry of pets, but encourage our guests to holiday with them.”

“One thing we can promise with absolute certainty is that 2016 New Year’s Eve will be one of the most unique and comprehensive experiences savored by our patrons. Since this is a one of its kind property in India and a mere two hour drive from Mumbai and Pune, the resort has been receiving pre bookings ever since its launch, earlier this year. We have priced it economically to generate goodwill and customer loyalty,” concludes Mr. Badiani.

Mumbai: Lonavala, the popular hill station getaway from Mumbai and Pune, is all set to feature India’s first resort on the lines of Japanese Tree House Chalets. An architectural feat, the villas at Rumourss Sky Villa & Resort are erected on a single iron mast at a height of about 30 to 40 feet that tremble gently and pleasantly at periodical intervals.

“One of its kind, Rumourss Sky Villa & Resort will forever alter the travel experience of tourists in India. Instead of going for regular structure with more rooms, we decided to make the villas unique and enhance user experience. We house only eight villas in the entire resort. Four of them are sky villas and four ground villas. This will enable us to provide quality service to each of our guests,” says Devang Badiyani, Managing Director, Rumourss Sky Villa & Resort Pvt Ltd.

The resort is expected to be formally opened and fully operational by the end of the month, however guests have been availing services with limited functions since August. Located on the lap of a mountain on one side and a lake across the road on the other, Rumourss is set on a picturesque location with easy accessibility. It houses a fully lit swimming pool and a multi cuisine restaurant.

“With a usable area of 400 sq. feet, each villa comes with a spacious balcony, a cozy attic with

double mattress, 50 inch LED television and free Wi-Fi, beside many other standard and exclusive amenities. With natural hills and forests complementing the background of the resort, the villas themselves are constructed with eco friendly materials to retain the mood of the destination. During the monsoons, guests can enjoy the view of Tata lake right from their Sky villas or visit a private waterfall,” adds Devang Badiyani.

One of the most popular weekend destinations for both Mumbai as well as Pune residents, Lonavala is located 96 kms from the former and 64 kms from the latter. Set on an altitude of about 2000 feet above sea level, Lonavala enjoys a pleasant weather throughout the year.

“It is however most sought during the monsoons and the winter. During the rains, you can literally see life blossoming and earth around you becoming a sea of green interspersed with idyllic blue of still water. The region is also historically significant with many forts and caves including Lohagad fort, Visapur fort, Karla caves and Bhaja caves. The hill station along with its twin Khanadala, sprawl over an area of 38 square kms and are set on the Sahyadri ranges,” concludes Devang Badiyani.

The resort at Lonavala marks the entry of Rumourss Group into hospitality industry. Over the next two years it plans to come up with more projects with its signature style sky villas across India.
