Odeon
Khandala, MaharashtraAbout the Home
- SaffronStays Odeon is one of the few remaining grand vacation homes designed using art-deco architecture, a design style widely popular in the '20s and '30s.
- This 4-bedroom heritage home, combined with modern amenities and luxuries located in Khandala, near Ryewood Park.
- Two bedrooms are located on the ground floor, and two bedrooms on the first floor. All rooms have ensuite bathrooms.
- Your stay would be incomplete without a midnight dip in the cantilevered pool.
- Indulge in a game of table tennis or have a laid back evening in the sprawling verandah. If you want to step out, a walk through the 2-acre estate will take you through a canopy of forested trees, terraced gardens and fruit trees.
- The trained Caretaker, Cook and Housekeeping Staff will ensure that you enjoy a hassle-free stay and enjoy tasty home-cooked meals.
- Ideal for celebrations, because:
- You can organise a kitty party brunch with your girls in the sprawling lawns with a garden party table set-up. Owing to its large living room and huge lawns, the home can host anywhere between 75 to 100 guests for a day event.
- Relive those terrace parties with your friends by personalising the rooftop area. Comfy mattresses and cushions, a barbecue set-up and beverages of your choice, music and lights that suits your mood - everything you need for a laid-back, intimate get-together.
- Amidst plenty of greens and the cantilevered pool blues, bond with your group for jungle-esque quietude and some well-deserved pampering. Post a swim, enjoy some foot massage in the lounger by the pool.
