Share the post "They Don’t Make Destinations Like These Often! Try the Monsoon Magic at Aamby Valley!"

So, as the story goes, we have not built very many new destinations, if any, in recent decades. And, some that we did, did not fare well for one reason or the other. One is Lavasa, which has now being offered to investors as part of a NCLT package. The good news is that indeed it has found a suitor, one with a fresh appetite for investing in real estate and hospitality.
The other is Aamby Valley, an unimaginable piece of development, curated to near perfection mid way between Pune and Mumbai. It’s an inclusive and comprehensive mini-township, that remains open, bereft of its original owner’s passion and daily guidance. The Sahara parivar history apart, the late Subroto Roy’s visionary ambitions remain legendary! Imagine over 100 km long roads within the campus, its own airport with a provision to expand its runway length to accommodate 737 aircraft. At the resort, the gates are open. Plan your trip, for many reasons, especially in the monsoons, when Aamby Valley comes even more alive washed by Nature. Just note though, the golf course remains closed in the rains!
