A Private Pool for ₹14k? Why This Aarey Colony Villa is a Budget-Friendly Miracle

WHY SHOULD YOU HAVE TO GO THERE: For a “Nature Immersion” on a budget. If you are a group of friends who want a private pool and a place to grill barbeques under the stars without driving 3 hours to Lonavala, this is your spot.
WHY PEOPLE LOVE TO GO THERE: The Disconnected Vibe. Because it’s nestled in the hills of Aarey, the mobile network can be patchy—which guests actually love because it forces everyone to put down their phones and actually talk to each other.
IN THERE WHAT IS FAMOUS PLACE TO VISIT: Chhota Kashmir (the only place in Mumbai with a boating lake) is just a short drive away. You can also visit the Aarey Dairy to try the freshest milk and lassi in the city.
FUN FACT ABOUT VILLAS OWNER OR PLACE: The villa is part of a community where many Bollywood “horror” movies and forest chase sequences are filmed. Don’t worry, the only “monsters” you’ll see are the local monkeys trying to steal your snacks!
PRIZE OF VILLA: ₹14,000 per night.
WHY IS RATING HIGH (4.0/5): It hits the “Value for Money” sweet spot. While some villas in Juhu cost 5x more, this provides a private pool and a forest view that is arguably more peaceful for a fraction of the price.
HOW TO GO THERE:
- TRAIN: Take the Western Line to Goregaon Station (East). From there, take a rickshaw or taxi. Tell the driver “Royal Palms, Aarey Colony.”
- TAXI: Use the Western Express Highway (WEH) entrance to Aarey. Be prepared for a scenic (and slightly bumpy) 15-minute drive through the forest to reach the villa.
- BUS: Take Bus No. 452 from Goregaon Station East directly to the Royal Palms main gate.

bly cooler and the only “traffic” you’ll hear is the rustling of leaves.

WHY SHOULD YOU HAVE TO GO THERE: For a “Full Family Reunion.” It has massive outdoor spaces and a safe, gated feel that is perfect for kids and elders alike.
WHY PEOPLE LOVE TO GO THERE: The Privacy. Unlike hotels, you get a sprawling garden and pool all to yourself in a high-altitude forest setting.
IN THERE WHAT IS FAMOUS PLACE TO VISIT: Upvan Lake is nearby, famous for its evening lights and peaceful walking paths.
FUN FACT: Yeoor Hills is part of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, meaning you are literally sleeping inside a leopard sanctuary (safely behind high walls!).
PRIZE PER NIGHT: ₹16,000.
WHY IS RATING HIGH (4.4/5): The “Service & Space.” It’s rare to find such a large property that is so well-maintained.
HOW TO GO THERE:
- TRAIN: Thane Station (West).
- TAXI: Drive up the Yeoor Hills road (it’s a steep, scenic climb!).
- BUS: Take the Yeoor-bound bus (No. 56) from Thane Station.
