It’s better to see something once, rather than to
read about it a thousand times.
Inspired by the reviews and feedback, I was enticed to make some classic memories at Aahana Resort in order to rejuvenate and breath some fresh air into my suffocated lungs from Delhi-NCR. A personal lawn surrounded with garden in front of your luxurious suite, relishing morning Tea under blue skies and a glass of wine by the poolside, evening bonfire, and birdwatching to make loads of memories with your loved ones. Memories make life worthwhile; you will make a lot of them.
Spread over 13.5 acres and placed between ideally placed between the dense jungles of the Corbett Tiger reserve and a local farming village, every moment spent at Aahana makes one feel like walking in the Corbett National Park. Everything about Aahana is surely going to mesmerize you. This amazing resort not only offers unparalleled luxurious convenience but also stunning rooms, long nature walks and amazing dining options. Let’s scroll through the resort.
1. Stunning
Rooms:
Exquisite design and beautifully structured, Suites are carefully designed with Forest theme, keeping luxury at heart. Just pull the curtains to Welcome morning sunshine. Check out -
Amenities in the Room -
· Electric
kettle is handy to make tea/ Coffee of your choice from
number of pouches kept in the room.
· LED Television however, for the first time in all of my travels I did
not switch ON the TV as everything about Aahana kept me occupied for
2 Nights and 3 Days of stay.
· Iron and Ironing Board.
· Electronic Safes, bathrobes, and slippers in the Ward robe
· Glass partitioned shower and premium toiletries, dental kit, shaving kit and a hairdryer in the washroom.
2. Nature Walks:
Walking is the most ancient exercise and still the best modern
exercise. And walking along with nature is to witness a thousand miracles.
If I consider miracles as trees, you are in for a treat at Aahana.
Only 30% of total area has been used for
construction and rest 70% is all about 4000 trees and 200 species of birds
chirping and approx. 20 species of butterflies. 1.2 km. of walking track within the resort premises is surrounded by almost 100 different types of trees to make you feel like
walking in a forest.
Unlike other properties where you may have to go outdoors in search of naturescape, at Aahana Nature is just at your door. To ensure you take back information about the diverse Flora, specialized Naturalists have been engaged to provide information about the variety of trees along with their benefits.
Spend time to check the Maina Luvka, Bamboo trees (Tiger bamboo, Pencil bamboo, Buddha bamboo), Malubel and many likewise, have a virtual walk around Aahana.
Travelling and Food goes hand in hand and signature Dhikala
Restaurant with amazing dining options ensures taste buds are in good taste.
That’s how we need to re-calibrate our life. After the dinner you may go back to your room but trust me, the restaurant will have your heart with its liveliness. You can also join the live band for your favorite songs or enjoy the ambience with a glass of wine.
Aahana Resort has been consistently featured in “Top 25 Luxury Resorts in India”. Indeed, you will be spoilt for luxury choices here at Aahana. Apart from Luxurious Stay, Delightful Dining and Nature walks, there is more to Aahana Resort, something, which sets apart Aahana Resort from the pack – “Sustainability Initiatives”. Like:
For statistics: PH level of this treated water is 7.09. See for yourself, the STP plant.
And Aahana is also taking care of local
communities nearby to the resort, likewise:
1) Financial
support to two of the nearby village schools.
2) Monthly
Green Corbett exercise to clean the village with help of local village school
children.
3) 98%
of the staff requirement of the resort is met with local people so that fruits of development duly benefit the local community.
4) Only local artisans/ craftsmen are hired for any woodwork within the premises.
When the planet earth is fighting with severe
climate issues, just handing over the waste to the Municipal Corporations, will
not relieve you from your responsibility towards the Environment and local
communities. May not be the right approach as well. Full marks to Aahana for
their Sustainability initiatives.
We don’t have to engage in grand,
heroic actions to make the change. Such small initiatives can do
wonders in tackling the problem of Waste/ Water Pollution and can make
our Earth a better place. You will be surprised to know:
1. This lavish place which you just saw in the pictures was a barren piece of land till 2006, which even the locales considered unfit for cultivation. With sustained and determined efforts Aahana not only has created this amazing spot, but also is paying back to the local communities and driving the holistic development of the nearby areas.
2. Citronella and Lemon grass plants have been planted to bring down use of insecticides and pesticides. We did not feel any time disturbed by Mosquitoes, even while walking around at night. Aahana was benevolent enough to provide me with a plant of each for planting at my home.
So, whether you are visiting Jim Corbett or even 100-200 km. from Jim Corbett, planning to visit Aahana, The Corbett Wilderness Resort will surely make for awesome memories. If you have read so far, please do enjoy a virtual tour of Aahana Resort…
