Meher Villa was a welcome break from the noise and chaos of Mumbai. Its located slightly outside Lonavala and handy to the Karla and Bhaja caves. The bungalows are set around lovely lawns and a small pool. The central fireplace/BBQ is a good place to chat to other guests. With A/C inside and large verandahs it was possible to stay as warm or as cool as we needed. Theres some distant noise from the expressway and train tracks, but nothing to compare to the din of the city. Our stay was made memorable by probably the best food Ive ever had in any hotel or B&B. The staff were buying the food fresh from the market each morning, so if we got our requests in early enough we could have pretty much anything we wanted that they knew how to cook. I particularly remember a vege dhansak and a fried pomfret. Theres a rough section of road just for the last stretch, so drive carefully. If youre coming from Mumbai on the expressway, take the exit after the one marked for Lonavala, as there is a much longer stretch of bumpy road between the town and Meher Villa coming from that side. This is probably not the route on your sat-nav, but it should re-route OK.

We had a wonderful family holiday at Meher Villa. Really enjoyed relaxing on the lawn and the food they served was exceptionally good. Our room was spacious and well-equipped and the staff were very helpful. It is a pet-friendly place and we really enjoyed playing in the garden with the neighbouring guest's labrador. The last stretch of the road reaching the property is a bit challenging, but the journey is totally worth it once you reach there. All in all, we had a very fun and memorable experience at Meher Villa and would love to visit again.

We stayed at the villa.(there are smaller rooms next to the pool area available on twin sharing basis) It's got Good views from the balcony area. It's ideal for a group of 7,8 people. Food options were decent. The approach road to the property is quite treacherous, so account for the extra travel time spent.

We had booked a room in this villa via booking.com as it was not showing any other normal means of booking and also received the confirmation mail about the same but when we tried to contact the people nobody answered prior and on arrival they said our booking did not exist as they had cancelled their tie up with booking.com. Totally unprofessional behaviour. They promised alternate accomodation but did not pick up calls after the first one was cut off due to bad connection. Will never recommend this place to any family or friends.

Beautiful place!! It's like the perfect place to get away from the city life without entering the traumatic traffic in Lonavala during the weekends, as it's extremely close from the express way and the foods great as well.
