Winter’s Arrival: The Season of Indulgence
As the summer heat fades, travel shifts focus. Rather than seeking sunshine, winter invites cooler, quieter moments. Unlike typical peak season trips that are crowded and costly, winter travel offers calm, spacious experiences that feel less rushed and more intentional. Lohono Stays understands this shift, providing private villas in top Indian winter destinations where guests enjoy both comfort and peace, free from the usual travel pressures.
Why Are Travellers Preferring Private Villas During Winter
For the ones who appreciate the finer things, luxury is the privilege of choosing how the day unfolds. Opting for a private Lohono villa is a declaration of this taste.

There are no queues, no intrusive meal times, no busy common areas. Guests dine and rest at their leisure, confident that dedicated chefs, spa professionals, and discreet housekeepers are attuned to personal needs. Here, service is quiet yet complete, allowing guests to unwind in splendid seclusion.
