Vanaswara isn’t just a stay, it’s a soulful experience. Built with sustainability at its heart and designed to blend effortlessly into its wild surroundings, the retreat offers refined comfort with a reverence for nature. There are no screens, no artificial noise — only the rich, layered symphony of the forest. It's the perfect digital detox, where each day unfolds slowly and deliberately, in harmony with the natural world.
Begin your mornings with golden light filtering through the trees and the scent of wild blooms on the breeze. Spend your afternoons immersed in the quiet magic of the forest or beside the Kundalika’s sparkling flow. As evening falls, gather by a crackling fire or gaze at a sky scattered with stars — letting the stillness settle deep into your soul.
Just a short drive from the city, yet worlds away, this hidden forest sanctuary invites you to listen — not to your phone, but to the timeless music of the earth.
Tucked away in the heart of the Western Ghats, just 120 kilometers from both Mumbai and Pune, lies Kolad — a serene, untouched haven where the river hums, the trees whisper, and time seems to slow. Here, on the lush banks of the Kundalika River, embraced by a dense forest and a grove of graceful cashewnut trees, you’ll find Vanaswara — a luxurious, eco-friendly forest retreat whose name means “the sounds of the forest.” And true to its name, this is a place where nature speaks — in birdsong, rustling leaves, and the gentle murmur of flowing water.
