Wander Beyond - Villa in Alibaug

Wander beyond the lights of Mumbai, to a place of the soul. Blurring separations between the inside and outside, this charming abode was built around the traditional Indian concept of an aangan with a gorgeous plumeria tree right in the middle. With the beautiful verdant hills and meadows, and the melodies of the waves of the Arabian sea churning somewhere in the distance; this is a blissful sanctuary away from the chaos of urban life. Wander Beyond is a place to birdwatch, butterfly-count, stargaze, slow down, and appreciate all that is innate in this world. This is where you are encircled by the rustling of bamboo leaves, the melodic bird calls, the blossoming of bougainvillaea and Champa flowers, and the fluttering of monarch butterflies.

With a number of courtyards surrounding the bedrooms, get a glimpse of the rising sun, and the birds passing through, whilst being accompanied by two furry friends Peter Pan and Gunda. Forget the stress you left at our doorstep, as you drink your chai in the sun, after a refreshing swim, with the people you love.

- Serene location amidst the vibrant hues and summer vibes of Alibaug
