WEEKEND VACATION

TWO HOURS AWAY FROM MUMBAI (AND PUNE!), NESTLED IN THE GREEN HILLS OF LONAVALA, LIES THE BEAUTIFUL RADISSON RESORT & SPA. WE SPENT TWO NIGHTS TAKING IN THE SIGHTS, THE SOUNDS, AND ALL THE AMENITIES ON OFFER. HERE'S WHY YOU SHOULD TOO...

- 

When it's time for some rest and relaxation, nothing compares to getting away from the daily humdrum work schedule than enjoying an indulgent spa treatment in a dreamy locale. But there's a certain cliché that tranquility seekers must travel to a far-off land (say, Bali or the Maldives) to experience the mind and body rejuvenation of a spa resort. The reality? There's probably a luxury resort and spa within driving distance of you. Whether you're hunting for an unforgettable solo experience, shopping for a mother-daughter retreat, or searching for the perfect opportunity to round up your friends for some much-needed pampering, there's a domestic spa destination for you. So mark a weekend on your calendar and prepare for a blissful experience at this serene getaway - the Radisson Resort & Spa in Lonavala. I promise you will not be disappointed.

On arrival at the property, I was guided to the circular rock clad reception area - this gives you the feel of entering an old fort with modern amenities - an eclectic mix of the old with the new.
