Zostel Kolad

I had travel-led with my group of friends. To get to the venue we have to take a small boat ride which was fun. The staff are quite polite and helpful. The room that was given to us was a bit smelly but as soon as we raised this concern they gave us a fresh new room. Food here is so so delicious. I have also stayed in mahabaleshwar zostel. There too we had loved the food. We were totally engaged and had so much fun. We started with game room which had plenty of games. And chill vibe. Then in tge evening they gave an option if we want to go for mini trek and see sunset. But we chose kayaking and water activities. Then relaxed for some time near the river. Then while we were returning they started playing good music to create vibe. They also organised friendly volleyball match. Then there were other group who were playing some amazing songs and dancing all night. They also arranged bonfire. Next day morning with delicious breakfast buffet we winded up clicking some great pictures. We couldnt use the swimming pool as it was under maintenance from past few months. We did not miss it but if someone visiting in future wants it then they can check with the zostel folks before booking

Reaching zostel kolad is fairly easy its a 3 hour journey from either mumbai or pune (drive from pune is really scenic. Zostel is located on the banks of kundalika river. We need to cross the river to reach zostel and zostel provides a ferry service for this, which also a unique experience. It is a beautiful property with clean rooms, outdoor sports (badminton, volleyball & cricket, indoor activities (table tennis, carrom and etc) and amazing restaurant. Zostel kolad particularly lights up after 7pm. There are multiple activities organized by zostel every night involving dance, music, drinks and lot of food. Truly, it was an amazing experience making me want to extend my stay (unfortunately they were fully booked. Ps: book your stay a month early. They sell out very quickly particularly on weekends.

I had a great experience in Zostel Kolad. The food was ok, vibe was good, pool was alright, service was pretty decent. The room's bathroom had some leakage issue but overall I would give a 4 star rating.

Great food and amazing location
