Lonavala is the ultimate monsoon hotspot in India that has travellers under its Monsoon spell during the rainy season. From July-September, the lush green landscape of the hill station breathes new life into every corner, as if nature herself sprinkled her magic. And let's not forget the mist that drapes the Sahyadri range, whisking you away to a fairytale realm.
If you're chasing those monsoon dreams, The Four Villa property in Lonavala is the holy grail you've been seeking. Tucked away amidst nature's enchantment, the property seamlessly blends elegance, vintage vibes and a colour palette that would make even rainbows jealous.
