We stayed in Satish’s villa for 2 nights. It is a well maintained and spacious villa. The swimming pool and rooms were clean. The location was noiseless and is few minutes away from Panchgani tableland / market. The support staff was polite and helpful, and the food cooked by them was decent. It looks exactly how it appears in the pictures. There are a total of 3 well appointed bedrooms in the villa with attached bathrooms. The host very kindly provided towels and soap for our use. Special mention to be made of the caretaker Anil. He ensured that our every need was taken care of. The two cooks who were present at the property plied us with plentiful tea, coffee and even bournvita at no extra charge as and when we requested. They even prepared meals for us when we were feeling too lazy to step out in search of food. The USP however is the lovely swimming pool which was cleaned everyday during our stay. (Non-swimmers please note that the depth of the pool ranges from 4 ft at one end to 8ft at the other). The sound system in the living room was an added bonus and we were able to plug our cell phones into it and play the music of our choice. The property is located a little away from the town center but is easily accessible by car. All in all it was a great place to stay and complete value for money. I look forward to visiting again in the future.

The host made it comfortable for us to reach the right location.

The place is very clean and well maintained. Kabeer is a very helping host and he helped us in all d way possible. Just a small negative about this place is its nt on main road amd inside a very small lane which smetimes create a glitch kin gaking out your vehicle.

A very nice house to stay for a group of friends...I traveled to this place with my friends and Kabeer helped us from the time booking was (URL HIDDEN) was a well directed route he sent me and it was easy reaching the place...Caretaker Ashok Mane was also very helpful and attended us whenever we called him...Panchgani market was so close and every item was available with very less efforts...Drinking water was not available. However we got water jars which saved us in our stay...Most of the points are easily accessible from his house and Ashok Mane also helped us in getting a good guide who showed us all the places...Some Cons but they are not so big ones...Walls needs painting and the roads leading to the house needs some serious repair because they can damage your car... Whenever I get a chance again with book this place...A good and nice place to stay with good scenic beauty and not to forget a well maintained garden with a swing and procedure to arrange a Bonfire... Overall a lovely and peaceful stay away from home inside nature...

Had a very nice time. Well equipped and spacious place. Caretkar of the society, Kabeer was very helpful.

Kabeer was really helpful in giving directions to his place. He was really nice and checked on us while we were driving from Mumbai to Panchgani. His place and neighbourhood was exactly as described here and Kabeer had honestly told us that the last 100-200mts drive way to his place is rugged. But parking was not an issue as his building is in a gated colony. There is maid facility available for cleaning. And beds for 5 people to sleep and extra mattresses for 2-3 more people. 6-7 people can comfortably stay at his place. The kitchen has all the utilities to cook a good meal. And we had bonfire in the backyard. All in all it was a great stay! It is a great place if you go with a group of friends to hang out and have fun!

My visit to panchgani could not have been better if i had not found this place. its beautiful home with a green garden and superb view.

A very good and clean place to stay. Kabir is a very nice host, proper communication and guidance. Place is awesome with good scenic view and very near to main panchgini market

Very peaceful place with a good scenic view. Any nature lover must visit. Beautiful backyard with a swing. Few points to note: Its not a bungalow, its a flat on the ground floor with 2 bedrooms, a hall and a very well equipped kitchen ( including a refrigerator too). Also 2 bathrooms with geysers. The caretaker Ashok is very helpful. The only con is that the place is a 10min walk on a slope to the main road. Make sure you call Kabeer to find the place as it is a bit confusing. Don't forget to carry all your essentials when you go as there are no nearby shops. Will definitely come back again to this place :-)

its amazing place to stay. very calm ,cozy , peace... best place to relax after hectic work load.

The place is quite nice, away from the hustle of city. Just the right place to blend in for a peaceful weekend. It's nested just beside the table top and is great for morning walks if ones loves to explore. The place is quite well maintained and the host alon

This place is absolutely lovely. Its a bit away from the panchgani market but not too far, lots of places to explore. The food is homely and very tasty. There are many places to explore around which we loved. Lots of greenery around the property and the staff was extremely warm and courteous.

Nice and peaceful location, good rooms and hospitality. The dog is really friendly too :)

Awesome place....

I had a fabulous time at the property. The view was breathtaking and most definitely something that one would go to again and again. The view of the valley from the lobby, the beautiful swing and the amazing ambience certainly would make you want to just be there and watch the peace for eternity. Apart from this the garden, the beauty of the decor made me feel like having a second home. And the home made food cooked there was a plus too. The host's caretaker was very polite, helpful and went out of the way to make me comfortable. A bonus was the Organic Farming experience I got, to learn about crops, farm and some actual tilling made my stay more experiential! Very good for families or groups to come down to spend a weekend. Unlike other properties that I've been to. I'd certainly recommend the stay, plus the quiet atmosphere certainly helped me unwind from the hustle of the city.

This is an awesome place with great scenic view, space, comfort and hospitality. Highly recommended

Verandah by the Valley as the name goes is what you see in the pictures is what you really get. It's located right in the heart of nature, and since it's 4 kms off the city, as bikers we enjoyed the trail along with safe parking. The caretaker and his wife cooks healthy farm grown meal. The 2bhk property is the best we have visited so far. We can see the waterfall on the right and the river on the left. The place is very clean, good to stay with friends and family. Nature lovers don't miss out the opportunity. Thank you (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) for recommending us the best. 100% recommended

Couldn't have asked for a better birthday weekend. Beautifully located away from all the bustle, unhindered views of the valley and a stunning sunrise! Santosh and his wife, the caretakers, were ever helpful and made our stay really comfortable. Rotis cooked on the wood fired mud chulha and a bbq in the evening were the highlights. Loved the walking trails around and the strawberry fields. Thanks Tejas, had a wonderful stay! Look forward to being there again soon.

Stay was great.location is awesome.all facilities are (URL HIDDEN) minus point is approach road is very bad to the villa still it does matter after reaching the place.

Super place.great good and absolutely clean. Kids had a blast as there was lots of open space to play

Ethereal is located in a cozy spot, not too far from the market to feel secluded, but not too close either. Visitors will have advantages of both, privacy, peace and quiet as well as proximity to places to see. Ethereal is for people want to spend a relaxed weekend, doing everyday things, in a different setting. Sit by the balcony, a cup of tea in hand, gazing endlessly at clouds floating over the valley, while perhaps reading a book. Take a walk and breathe clean, hillside air. The staff is friendly, efficient and helpful. It doesn't feel like a lodge or hotel at all; quite the contrary, it feels like you're bunking at a friend's vacation cabin in the woods. Beware of the cat that stalks guests at night in the balcony, scraping at the French window, whining for food. :-)

It was just perfect . AWESOME Experience . I am not usually the one who writes reviews . But for this one i had too Me and my friends visited Ethereal on 7th and 8th August. Very well maintained house, very clean and calm place . In case you are nature lover and want to visit a place to be in peace this is the best out of all . Vinesh is a perfect host , very friendly , very helpful . He made sure that we are quite comfortable . Excellent service and mouth watering breakfast :) Without having any second thoughts just visit this place . Its worth it .. I am sure you will end up writing a positive review too :)!!

I stayed here with my family ie my inlaws and husband. Its a lovely property and most importantly very clean. My husband is super finicky and loves his five star stays and he too gave a thumbs up to this property. The main approach has a bit of climb of stairs and may not be very suitable for senior citizens but i understand there is back approach road which can be used but would be a bit cumbersome for the driver as the parking has to be done from the main entrance. The only issue if i have to picky would be that it has one bathroom and one toilet and that would be an issue for a large crowd. Overall highly recommend the place.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ethereal. True to its name, Vinesh's Chalet is a beautiful, quiet home right in the middle of natures lap. Each day was perfectly what we wanted in a vacation, away from our taxing city life. Our host and caretakers were exceptionally good. Vinesh took special and complete care to ensure that we had everything we need to be comfortable. Highly recommended for those who want to explore Panchgani-Mahableshwar or simply unwind!!

I had gone to Ethereal with my wife and our friends recently and let me describe this only in few words which the travelers would want to know when they are looking for great place (1) Absolutely clean, spot less - every furniture, beddings, doors windows, bathrooms (2) Private bungalow Ideal for 2 - 3 couples or 6 pax (3) Beautiful and scenic location - you get the view of the valley (4) Absolutely Rocking service - Appa, Ashok Singh are always at your service but dont invade your privacy (5) A super Host - Vinesh takes care of you as if you are his own family/friend (6) Value for money - It was hard to believe the service and the property that we had got in that tariff (7) Excellent Location - Restaurants, Points, Mapro Garden and Pachgani market are 5-7 mins away. Mahabaleshwar is 14 kms from the bungalow (8) The whole property is safe and secure with Alarms and CCTV cameras (9) Parking available upto 2 cars In all an excellent stay and makes you want to come back again.

We visited Ethereal during the busy 15th August long weekend and this place was perfect for getting away from the hustle of the city life. The cottage is far better than what meets the eye on the listing. It's comfortable for even a group of 4, however it has only one washroom (bath and toilet is separate though). It was very close to Mapro and other main attractions, while still being secluded enough for us to rejuvenate given our busy schedules. The cottage is beautifully designed and was spic and span when we entered it. The fresh air and view from the balcony was refreshing. Vinesh is a great host who made sure that we left on time so that we skip the traffic, gave us crystal clear directions and was waiting to personally welcome us when we reached. Vinesh is also very well read and his depth of knowledge from general economic issues to cars was pretty spell bounding. We had a good long conversation with him. He invited us to have a meal with him which was very unexpected and gracious. He even took us for a trek through the village to reach an exclusive point, where we had an absolutely spectacular view of the valley. A special mention for Appa, who was the most warm caretaker. His tea, as you might have read in the earlier reviews, is right up there with the best. If I had to pick a reason to crib, it would probably be the fact that the geyser switch is not inside the cottage. All in all, Ethereal is a great place to stay for people looking for weekend gateways around Bombay.

Our stay at Ethreal was wonderful and rejuvenating. It is located in a very quiet Lane. The moment you enter the chalet, you feel good looking at the spacious room, kitchen and balcony on the ground floor and the lovely mezzanine bedroom. The view from balcony is superb and with a lovely breeze blowing, you can sit there for hours. The entire chalet is maintained very well and is very clean and tidy. Vinesh and his staff are very hospitable and take care of you very well during your stay. Will keep visiting there frequently.

Ethereal as the name says is a serene calm abode... it actually feels like home away from home...The host Vinesh is excellent and takes care of his guests personally... Everything was well coordinated..He and his team made our stay joyous.....Place is far away from hullaboo of a typical hill station...The view from the chalet is breathtaking.....Its gives you a fresh feel.... Plus it gives you the much needed privacy... No interference whatsoever.... I strongly recommend this place for quiet quality time with family....Thumbs up to Vinesh and his team! Special mention to Uncle Ashok Singh who was so sweet to insist and make us a cup of tea when we were leaving for Mumbai early morning.....Can't wait to go there again!Loved it!
