When you need a quick break from Mumbai or Pune, nothing beats driving up the Expressway and unwinding right by the water. Booking a bungalow on rent in Pawna Lake gives you the space, quiet, and privacy that busy hotels just cannot match.
At Kino Lakeside Chalet, near Thakursai (about 25 minutes past Lonavala station), we built our 3 BHK and 4 BHK chalets specifically for group stays. You get the whole property to yourselves—no shared pools, no breakfast line-ups, and no noisy hallways.
What Makes a Private Stay So Comforting
When you book a private bungalow here, you are paying for real comfort and personal care:
- Indoor Heated Dip Pool: You can take an evening swim anytime. The pool is inside the suite, temperature-regulated, and fitted with ambient lighting.
- Home-Cooked Meals On-Site: Our resident chefs prepare hot Maharashtrian dishes, fresh fish fry, and North Indian meals tailored to your taste.
- Hospitality by Lead Butler Vicky: Vicky and his team take care of everything—from serving evening tea on the lawn to setting up night bonfires.
- Direct Water Views: Floor-to-ceiling glass windows open up to panoramic sunsets across Pawna Lake.
