Tucked into the quiet village of Khanapur, between Khadakwasla Dam and the mighty Sinhagad Fort, Bogunvilla Retreat has been offering Pune families and friend groups a genuinely calm escape — without the long drive or the tourist-trap pricing.
What makes it different
Bogunvilla isn't a sprawling hotel with a hundred rooms and buffet counters. It's a 5-bedroom private retreat, which means when you book, the place is essentially yours. No strangers at the pool, no noise from the next room, no rushing for breakfast tables.
The pool sits against an open mountain backdrop. The meals are cooked fresh by an in-house chef — proper Maharashtrian home food, not resort-buffet fare. And the view? Waking up to Sinhagad Hill on the horizon is something photographs genuinely struggle to do justice.
What's included in your stay
- Swimming pool with mountain backdrop
- All meals — breakfast, lunch, high tea & dinner
- 5 spacious AC bedrooms (up to 10 guests)
- Recreation room with indoor games
- Valley view garden & open spaces
- Wi-Fi, TV & parking
Sinhagad Fort is right on your doorstep
If your group enjoys a bit of adventure, the famous Sinhagad Fort trek is just minutes away. Do the morning trek, come back famished, and sit down to a proper home-cooked lunch. Then spend the afternoon by the pool. That's a near-perfect day by most standards.
Khadakwasla Dam is another 10 minutes away — ideal for an evening walk by the water with local snacks from the roadside stalls.
"Lovely place to stay, food and hospitality is outstanding. Good for friends and family weekend. Indoor games, wonderful experience. Worth every penny."

Coming just for the day? That works too.
Not everyone can spare a full night. Bogunvilla's day package runs from 9 AM to 6 PM and includes breakfast, lunch, and high tea — making it one of the most complete day picnic options near Pune for the price.

Who it's best for
Families looking for a safe, clean, contained space for kids to run around. Friend groups wanting a private pool and good food without coordinating a big trip. Couples who want quiet and nature without roughing it. Corporate teams doing a quick offsite — the recreation room doubles up well for informal sessions.
Bogunvilla isn't trying to be a five-star resort in Pune. It's trying to be the best possible version of a home away from home — and by most accounts, it succeeds.
