Another great experience over here . Nature does what it does best , heals better than anything and mostly anyone . Love how Dharna has factored that in , and it was even better getting to know from the locals living around how they were being supported to protect this natural place . The treatments were amazing, love all the private areas where one can just be in solitude connected to nature . The food is amazing and although not enough for me , but when I requested for more, i got it 🙂 …. I love the holistic approach they have , and the staff is warm, and friendly . I love that one is forced to slow down over here and that’s actually what many of us need . I recommended this place to some of my friends and it was good to know that they had a great experience too . Would love to experience this place in the rains as well . loved the nature walks, the gym is fab , fantastic equipment, loved the meditation caves , the yoga classes and the tea room, such a pleasant experience . Traffic is always a bummer, but hopefully that will be better soon, enabling a quicker reach time .

The place is in Lonavla away from all the crowd of Lonavla. It is a beautiful gateway if you are looking to relax and unwind in nature. The rooms are spacious and the house keeping team ensure to keep it clean and beautiful, their healing centre has amazing doctors and masseur who are experts and know what they are doing, the food is wholesome with just the right quantity, and Waqar has been extremely polite and helpful to explaining the menu and dish. The pick and drop facility makes it extremely easy to move around and the drivers are polite and nice.

Overall the staff is polite, humble and extremely helpful. One should consider visiting this place if they have the opportunity and means to do so.

When I was planning my trip to India, I came across Dharana at Shillim on the internet. It would be great to stay at this lovely place but for how long? I decided on 5 days 4 nights to see how I liked it. I was not disappointed. Every one is so polite, compassionate, and caring. I would definitely recommend Dharana to everyone to come and be pampered and relax for a few days.
