Detailed Description

Sprawling organic Alphonso mango orchard overlooking gorgeous sand washed, palm fringed sea beach! It is neither a boutique property nor is it a resort. It is a farm with an exotic coastal ambiance to it and an abundance of cashew nut, chickoos, banana, palms, guava, and custard apple trees.

We are, situated short of the historic town of Murud, in the peaceful village of Nandgaon, is one of the most beautiful settings along the Alibagh coast with profuse plantation of coconut and betel nut trees.

Hidden away on the unspoilt backwaters of the creak, you find natural beauty and serenity. The farm feel combined with understated luxury and personal service indeed makes it a magical experience.

You can relax on the hammocks in the sprawling lawns with its spectacular view of forested hills in the background and the sea before you.

Trek through the farm, the hill top gives you a breathtaking sea view. Reward yourself a tea/nimbupani break at 'asthanchal', the sunset point.

A walk along the beach or wade through the sea water and cross the creek when in low tide!!
Watch the boats, the sea and the birds along the coast from our outpost, made on stilts well into the sea.

A ride on the fisherman's boat can be organized for a true local experience.

Or spend the day fishing at the Nawabs favorite point.
Close by is the palace of the former Nawab of Janjira and the impregnable Janjira Fort. Ahead is a view of another historic monument, the Kasa Fort built by Shivaji who tried to conquer the Siddis. You can either take it all in or let the history just wash over you.

Carry on towards Murud. Just about 200mts after the Mazgaon bridge you turn right onto a smooth and leveled kuchha road that takes you straight to Bagh.

For those geared for a little more adventure, you drive 2 kms further till you arrive at Mohra bus stop from where you take a right-right turn onto a country road which is about a km in length and leads you straight to Mahua Bagh too.

You can also go to Murud via Roha, a small town dotted heavily with large and shady trees. This route is 10 kms. longer, but you will pass through beautiful country side and will drive along and past the main entry for the Phansad Sanctuary.
