Fazlani Natures Nest- The Wellness Retreat

*fazlani nature's nest is a beautiful 68-acre property and one of the best we've been to as a family so far, situated outside of the city limits between Lonavala/Pune (a place called vadgaon, in a calm and serene set up. Things to look forward to if you plan to visit: 1. Unique check-in where the staff comes to the couch you are seated on and you don't need to go to the desk. 2. Golf cart & bicycles for movement within the property. 3. A beautiful lake at one end of the property with benches (and a machan) to sit on for a nice peaceful time. 4. A horse stable where you can feed and ride the horses. 5. A goat milking activity. 6. A flora tour (we missed it so can't share much. 7. An aggro tour where they have a large variety of fruits and vegetables being grown. 8. An open bird park where ducks, turkeys, pheasants and other birds move around you. They also have more caged birds in various parts of the property. 9. A bullock cart ride. 10. A nice trek through nature, ending at a nice point on the lakeside. 11. A school and hostel on the campus for kids adopted by the founders and a hobby centre in it for kids who visit ( pottery, glass painting etc. 12. Bonfire at night. 13. The restaurant focuses on health. Good food but with less salt and sugar. Jaggery provided as an option for tea etc. 14. The rooms were clean and decent. We took the base option. 15. Staff is very helpful and courteous. 16. Kids play area/game zone. Cons (which arent that bad: 1. Just 1 restaurant and a tad bit expensive. Since it's a cut off property, you cannot go out for food. The food taste needs work for sure. 2. All activities end by 6 pm. So post 6 pm you can just chill at the property. 3. A con for some but not all - the property is a no gutkha/smoke/alcohol place. They even make you sign a declaration to abide by it. 4. They don't accept diners black credit card. 5. Erm. Not too cheap. But it is worth spending the amount on a night for sure! definitely peanuts compared to the joy that your kid experiences! a must visit place for couples and families. Our 7 year old daughter just could not control her excitement for the 27 hours we spent at this heavenly property.

Fazlani's Nature nest was a ," Glimpse of Heaven" experience for me. I know it may sound a little exaggerated, over the top expression but for me it truly was. I am into Energy work and the vibe of the place is awesome. The property is beautiful, actually nestled amidst nature and the entire staff is very polite, courteous and hospitable. I was welcomed by Mr Garvit Arora at the front desk who had truly taken care of reserving a very suitable and convenient room on my request as I was traveling with my super senior 79 year old mom. The buggy guys Avinash and Harshal were so kind and really took good care of my senior mom everytime we commuted within the property. There are so many interesting activities to do on the property and the activity Manager Mr Satveer truly well coordinated all our activities and also arranged a few for us on a weekday although they are offered in weekends The restaurant Manager Mr Shyam Panwar was truly a delight to interact with and he made sure we had really good variety and tasty meals everytime we walked in the restaurant. Mr Rajesh gave me the flora tour and took me horse riding and really spent a lot of time with me explaining how the horses communicate, the breed which they belong and answered all my Qs very patiently as I really wanted to spend quality time with the horses and get to know them besides riding them. Ms Swati was such a kind and nurturing yoga coach and my spa experience was very relaxing with therapist Ujjwala and Mini. Lastly, for me the most interesting part was the Agro tour where I got see exotic plants and spices, which have been cultivated by the Mr Sandeep, a Master's in Agriculture who has published some great original work and provided such valuable information on different species of plants and made it so interesting. I even got to interact with Ms Prachiti from the Sales team and truly enjoyed my meeting with her. All and all a wonderful experience and would recommend visiting this hidden gem of a property.

Booked fazlani natures nest for the weekend after long discussions with friends who accompanied us. Pros 1. Staff- the best thing about the property was its great staff. Right from the reception, buggey chauffeurs, restaurant staff ( special thanks to suman) and the various others located in the property, they were all phenomenal and made out stay super comfy. Have never seen such accommodating service in any other place. 2. Property is huge and well maintained with good amenities, like cycling for kids, aggro tour, bird park, separate swimming pool for the kids. 3. Food- the in house restaurant hive offers tasty food though its a little expensive if u go for a-la-carte. Cons 1. Small rooms-rooms are well equipped but small in size given the price they charge. 2. Dinner timings are a little early. 3. The restaurant area has so many flies, especially during breakfast. Also they were spraying water all over the dining area to fend off heat but it was all over our food- a little unhygienic. 4. The close the fountain and machan area after 10 pm. So if u want to explore the property by walking at night u have limited area. You can go to fazlani nature nest for its exceptional staff with some small things that might irk you.

it was a nice stay. amenities and activities were the usps of the property. well maintained throughout. hospitality was the best. humble staff. food was good but not great. can be improved especially the nonveg options menu's in the buffet. variety of beverages could be introduced in evening. since the property is more about wellness and health, they can leverage the promotion by giving complimentary organic vegetables or fruits or any such stuffs to guests on check out. overall a beautiful stay and cheerful memories for lifetime.. thank you team fazlani and mmt. yes welcome gesture was nice. we were accommodated early even though we reached well before check in time. while taking you to the room the attendant harsal explained every place & point where activities were supposed to be conducted. the attendants at stallion castle had such good knowledge of every horse there. and they shared it with us so enthusiastically. mr. sahebrao at restaurant gave us an excellent service. other staffs were amazing at their services too. a big thanks to all of them who made us feel so welcomed and well treated 😊

This place surpassed our expectations in every aspect. The campus is huge, lush green and very well maintained. After being warmly received by the reception staff with a welcome drink, we were transferred to our rooms along with our luggages in golf carts/buggies. The rooms are immaculately kept, with all the facilities of a 5 star Fazlani Natures Nest- The Wellness Retreat. We booked the lake facing suite (connifer) and it was absolutely amazing. I would recommend booking a suite if it fits your budget. Buffet breakfast and a lunch or dinner is included. The buffet spread is good and we were provided the option of ordering from an a la cart e menu as well (all included in the price. The food was good. You’ll be stunned by the view of lake andra and the sunrise over the lake is just jaw dropping. There are activities of all kinds in the campus to suit every taste. The kids would love the birds, geese and several other animals. There are cycling, horse riding and spa facilities as well. Overall a top notch place for relaxing with family for a couple of days. Highly recommended!

My overall experience with this property was excellent. Few kids activities were really fun for my daughter however many more can be still explored (like activity of the day)the breakfast service is good with lots of options however the dinner buffet needs to improve a lot in regards to the choice of menu. The check in process was smooth however the room keys provided to me was not working initially and had to wait for sometime to get this resolved. My ernest request would be regarding the check out and check in time, which seems to be little disappointing as it is not even 20 hrs stay per day and one get start bothered by the receptionist to vacate the room by 10am which is difficult and spoils your holiday mood. Also please start the in room dining experience as it doesn’t exists now and it is not viable for small kids who really gets tired and has to go to the restaurant to have his dinner. I thank each of the team members for making our stay comfortable.

Fazlani Nature's nest is at a very convenient distance from Pune. As soon as you enter into the huge premise, you will be enchanted by huge, serene and picturesque environment. Evenings are made wonderful by the playing, quacking and waddling bunch of exotic and beautiful birds. A stroll on the lawns and a walk up to the Machaan to enjoy the dusky evening, is very soothing. Do not miss the sunrise at any cost. It is one of the most beautiful things I have seen in the recent past. A walk around the farms, experience of beautiful swimming pool, a stroll across the stallion castle with great looking horses, are just walking past the beautiful flowers, are all worth an experience. Food in the Hive restaurant, though a tad pricy, is good. Staff is very friendly. I had only one minor complaint that to fix my room access key, it took me multiple calls. A worthwhile break from the mundane routine.

They take care of every single touchpoint of service and each of them is managed amazingly well right from booking confirmation while talking to the staff, they are really really well trained and courteous. Far superior then any 5stars globally stay is absolutely neat and clean not a speck of dust or dirt, they take extra care food is really healthy and nicely cooked and served with grace. The restaurant manager pawan is a fabulous guy and so is his entire team. They get you what you want. Ambience and walk around is so so good that you don't need to step out at all. They are very generous to let you stay back in the property after check out. No rush no commercial push overall it's an amazing wellness place and the best in lonavala, no need to check any other place just go for it. Btw food is all organically grown there too thanks

Excellent place for relaxing with family. Quality food. Neat and clean room. Flowers and fruit plantation neatly done. Hats off to owners for adopting poor children and giving them free education, lodging and boarding.

The Fazlani Natures Nest- The Wellness Retreat doesn't allow in room dining which during covid is even a bigger risk for people to be gathered at a restaurant which is also not large enough. They had to accommodate people in the banquet area for the same which was not good. The food spread and vegetarian food wasn't tasty, we ordered some nachos the guacamole dip that came was bitter and raw is just one example.

Everybody were following social distancing rules and regulations

Food was good. Location and cleaninness is upto mark. Great stay. Staff is great. Prices are a bit steep of food

Rooms are quite expensive as we got 250 sq, for some 15000 for per night, breakfast was also ok, not much varieties available but the property was excellent

I was there for a day only. I went in late October and the most I like was behavior of staff, extremely polite and always greet you and have that positive smile always on, the property is by some lake although I would have appreciated boating on it if at all they plan to introduce it any sooner. The property is immensely peaceful, the vibes are positive, nature at its almost best, calming and soothing breeze, absolutely relaxing. the only negative for me was that no alcohol is allowed which again is an individual choice well overall a minimum of 2 night stay is bang on! Cheers!

I feel this is end of good Fazlani Natures Nest- The Wellness Retreat to stay in Lonavala. Food was organic. Rooms were average but it was nature view of valleys and hills, which I like.

Overall quality of food and stay is good.

The property is just incredible and well maintained. The staff is very polite and helpful which lead to great hospitality.

Excellent place… excellent view… excellent location…. Excellent service…. Excellent food… very happy

Excellent property, great food and hospitality! there is no better way for a relaxing break away from the city.

Good job done by staff members
