The villa
Space for everyone, with the hills all around
Wake up to mist lifting off the Sahyadris, spend the afternoon in your own pool, and end the day on the rooftop as the sun drops behind the ridge. Sahyadri Crest is a spacious four-bedroom villa in a quiet corner of Lonavala. It feels miles away but is only two minutes from the main market.
Crisp winter mornings, warm afternoons and clear sunset skies make this one of the best times of year in Lonavala. Our full-time cook keeps the chai, hot poha and fresh home-style Maharashtrian meals coming, so nobody in your group has to cook.
An indoor elevator connects every floor, so grandparents and little ones can get around easily. It's a rare find in Lonavala and one of the reasons families keep coming back.
- 2 min Lonavala main market
- 5 min walk Shree Narayani Dham

Take a look around
Hygiene wise one of the best places we have stayed at. The swimming pool is very clean. They have well maintained plants everywhere. It is the best place to unwind and relax.
Exactly as shown in the pictures… Archana was a lovely and responsive host, and she was very accommodating with our late-night check-in since we were arriving by train. Would love to come back again!
Super convenient location close to the city but still calm and peaceful. The mountain views were a big highlight, especially in the evening.
A special mention to the caretaker, Ankush, who was extremely friendly, helpful and welcoming throughout our stay… Would happily visit again!
The pool was definitely one of the highlights: clean, well-maintained, and such a great place to just relax and unwind. The entire property is beautifully kept.
Archana and her husband were very responsive and gracious… and accommodating to help us with some last minute situation. Would highly recommend.
Amazing amazing property… One of the best villas I have stayed at. Highly recommend.
It's a great place, exactly the same as shown in the photos. View from the balcony is great. Caretaker Ankush is very responsive.
