Wind Chalet

My spouse and I had a wonderful stay at Wind Chalet. The location offers the best view in the Koyna area, overlooking the Koyna backwaters, Koyna Dam, and surrounding hills. The rooms were comfortable, the homely food was fresh and delicious, and Vitoba, the caretaker, took excellent care of us throughout our stay.Wind Chalet is perfect for longer stays, with scenic walks to nearby villages and a peaceful atmosphere that's ideal for nature lovers, reading, and simply unwinding.

The property is a little old and could benefit from some upgrades, but the spectacular location, peaceful atmosphere, and reasonable pricing more than make up for it.

Spacious room with comfortable bed and armchairs, full tea/coffee/dry milk/drinking water supply. Fan and AC worked well, and wi-fi was OK. Delicious dinner was served: egg masala with Konkani wade and paneer pakoda were finger-licking good 😊 Support team is good and caring. But the main magic of the place is as follows: beautiful evening valley view from the big balcony in the morning turned into pure fairy-tale: sky was gradually being enlightened with the rising sun, while clouds started getting collected on the lake water surface and poured over the dam into the valley covering trees and premises... Unforgettable and astonishing... 🌞🙏

The location was superb, with views of the forest and the Konya lake. But the experience was made especially special by Vithoba and team, who were so proud of the place, so accommodating and helpful, supplying us with cups of tea during a very rainy few days, and more than happy to accede to our every request. It felt like a warm wonderful home stay, and that always makes a trip special for us.

We didn't have anything specific we did not like.

Host Vithobha was very good and the location was serene amd peaceful

Was with my little daughters and very senior citizen and it became scary in the night as it was glass all around and some sliding windows has their latches not locking. Consolation by caretaker Vithobha as property is safe was not helping when the night became too dark. Spent whole night quite scared for safety and security as the isolation became a big problem. It is nice only if you well built people who can manage safety and security. Though Vithobhas family was quite good and helpful but not enough to allay fears and some safety measures like openable iron grilles that can be closed would greatly help.
