Le Sutra - Le Arc

Setting the standards high, Le Arc combines serenity, wit and architectural elegance in a way that it’s the perfect, idyllic choice for anyone looking for a class-apart experience. With sweeping views of the hill-station of Lonavala, you find yourself in the home, gazing out at the horizon and letting your thoughts float away to the rhythm of the breeze flowing through the home. A witty piece of art - The Argument Corner is decisively set right by the entrance as you might have a difficult time choosing amongst the array of leisurely amenities starting right from the doorstep. Whether to watch your cinematic favourites as you lay on the cosy sofas, relish a delectable meal from the Anglo Indian Cafe & Bistro at the opulent 8-seater dining area or dive into the refreshing plunge pool that’s right by the living room - it’s going to be a tough choice, indeed! Each of the bedrooms either have direct access to the lawn or open up to a balcony with views and breeze that are no less than a whisper of solitude. After dark, when the sparkling moonlit sky lights upon the horizon, take the opportunity and let us set you an al fresco meal on the rooftop terrace. If you’re a bigger group, there’s another majestic villa - Udaan, just a step away which can be booked along with Le Arc to accommodate larger groups. We care for your absolute comfort! To that effect, we provide: - Generator, AC, Wi-Fi - Wardrobe, hangers - Iron, torch, washing machine  - Geysers, towels, toiletries - Medical kit, mosquito repellent - Indoor games, library - Secured parking space This is neither a wheelchair-friendly property nor a pet-friendly property.

As evening falls, you can head to this garden space and have a scrumptious meal from the epic Anglo Indian Cafe & Bistro. A balmy evening by the pool with a chilled glass of wine paired with some mouth-watering Lime Chilli Prawns from the cafe would be a dream.
