And it is said a short holiday of 2 to 4 days, sometimes works better than a longer vacation to get recharged in life and instant rejuvenated.

The Retreat, a 5 Star Deluxe hotel is just the ideal get away treat for all you city folks wanting to get rid of the city blues.

Situated on the Madh Marve Road (before Madh Island), The Retreat is just a short drive away from the city centre and about an hour drive from the domestic and international airports. It is well within the city, yet it gives you a feeling of being far away from it.

The drive to the hotel changes dramatically just as you are 5 kms away from it. This last pathway to The Retreat covered with lush greenery and breezy palm trees straight away gives you the feeling of getting into a countryside and instantly puts you in a holiday mood.

The first thing that strikes you on entering the hotel is the sheer vastness and its charming ambience. A fabulous landscape with beautifully maintained gardens are a feast for the eyes and Mumbai's largest lagoon shaped swimming pool with a waterfall, sunken bar and an open air jacuzzi are very inviting, apart from being the highlight of the hotel.
