No holiday feels like one without picture-perfect, magical moments that soothe your soul. Now, imagine a Spanish escapade along a Colombian shoreline: You wander through a lawn, with the grass pampering your feet and gaze at the many moods of the sea, as the sun melts over the horizon and the night sky comes to life… We bring to you the ultimate luxe Spanish experience to you with our newest luxury villa in Alibaug, SaffronStays Hacienda By The Sea – the Queen of all Alibaug Beach Homes, less than 2 hours from Mumbai.
True to its name, the 5-bedroom Spanish-styled Signature estate is located on the Sasawane coastline, offering a gorgeous backdrop of the Arabian sea and greenery. The luxury villa in Alibaug is splashed in pastels of whites inside that marvelously contrast the greens and blues of the surrounding nature, promising a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. Only till you find yourself appreciating the rhythms of the palm trees swaying through the floor-to-ceiling windows and watch the sea stretch as far as you can see; a true feast to your sight right there.
After a much-needed siesta in the morning sunshine, take a dip in the crystal waters of the private pool and you’ll feel rejuvenated instantly. Homebodies can cosy up in the opulent rooms perfected to contemporary elegance.

We learned one of the greatest lessons in 2020- gratefulness for every moment of our life. As things start looking a little brighter this time around, we eagerly look forward to celebrating life in itself. It need not be a birthday or occasional party, but the idea of relaxing, taking time off to rejuvenate feels desirable. A cherry on the cake of your celebrations is when you truly make an experience of it. Celebrating in private villas or homes is a step up over hotel rooms or banquet halls because they provide a well-curated experience just for you. And we have many such reasons for you to come, celebrate with SaffronStays…
Unparalleled Privacy
Unparalleled privacy in spacious villas!
An entire place to yourself, with nobody else to pry on what you do, what you wear or how weirdly you laugh. You can do the embarrassing dance moves by the private pools or flaunt your sporty side on gaming lawns, our private villas near Mumbai, Lonavala, or Alibaug all are equipped with various facilities for guests to choose from. While you enjoy, our chefs and caretakers on site will ensure you get the best hospitality.
Safe and Sanitised Villas
Regularly sanitized villas
It’s become a norm to check on the hygiene standards and practices being followed whenever you book a place for a vacation now. All our private villas and homes are regularly sanitized and keep up with the safety protocols as per the Govt. So be rest assured that your safety is also our concern, that we fully address.
Intimate Celebrations Stay Intimate
Celebrate with your loved ones!
The premise of having small, intimate gatherings is to only have people that you really want by your side. When booking private villas for wedding-related events, it gives a space and time to personally bond with your people, instead of the rushed hi-hellos and plastered smiles.
With SaffronStays, you can choose an occasion — pre-wedding party, roka, wedding to reception and leave it to us with the arrangements to make it a memorable one for you! Don’t stress over what can go wrong, when you can focus on what to make right- a choice to select private villas for your intimate celebrations. You will cherish your special moments when you exactly remember how happy you felt in them.
Freedom of Choice
Relax in a way you wish to!
You have a lot of free time on your hands when you are being taken care of by someone else. There’s no worry about what’s cooking for breakfast or lunch, or what tasks need to tick off the routine. In spacious villas, one can have the ‘Me-time’ or ‘Us-time’ as you desire, by the pool, walking on the lawn, playing games, or curl up with a book in a cozy corner. You have the flexibility to spend your time as you want, something that you cannot do at your own home at times. That essence of being free of restrictions or responsibilities even for a day or two is so engrossing.
The Foodie Experience
Farm-to-Table food experience at Sanvina Farms
The food you eat during your vacation is also very much a part of your memories. How many times have Dal Makhni or Chicken Masala Curry from fancy hotels tasted distinctly different? But when you’re staying at private villas like ours, where chefs have their own specialties infused with local tastes, food also becomes part of an experience. Have a preference for veg-only homes? We got that too! From coastal style curries at beachside homes in Alibaug, to farm-to-table experiences at private villas in Karjat, your stay with us also serves you some delectable dishes.
What is your vibe for celebrations? Taking a nature’s retreat, cousins’ reunion, family staycation, work with a view, girls getaway or occasions — we have luxurious private homes that match it. Wake up to sunrise views over mountain valleys at beautiful villas in Lonavala or to the sound of sea waves by staying at a beach-facing private villa in Alibaug, go organic farming in rustic homestays around Mumbai or plan a workation from WiFi-equipped private homes. We have pet-friendly homes around Mumbai and Pune, so a getaway with your pooch, why not?
Last, but not least — celebrate you for being you! We all have seen difficult times, dealt with extra pressure, crumbled even but here we are again. Owe up to that, to give yourself a celebration you deserve. With the whole place to yourself in private villas, you need not have a show-and-tell, but a quiet celebration of just your family. Go all out with your favorite playlist or elusively finish that self-help book that you’ve been putting away.
Be grateful to you, your loved ones, celebrate life with SaffronStays, and let us be the gracious hosts to add the feathers on your party hats!

We Indians love our traditions! And why shouldn’t we? Our traditional ceremonies are like a triveni sangam of time-honoured culture, gracious hospitality, and the perfect opportunity to dress to kill! But we are also constantly seeking new, unestablished, and unconventional ways to marry our modern lives with our ancestral pasts. We also see glimpses of this newly acquired taste in a small but growing community that’s reinventing the way they celebrate traditional Indian ceremonies. With influencers leading the way – like the Virushka wedding or the Ambani’s celebration of Shloka’s first birthday as their daughter-in-law – we’re totally inspired! That’s why we made our own list of 5 non-traditional ways to celebrate traditional ceremonies.
1. Stop the spouse-to-be in their tracks with an exclusive roka ceremony
The roka ceremony traditionally takes place with the groom’s family coming over to the bride’s place and “sealing the deal”. For many, it is a private function while for others, a grand engagement celebration. But for those looking for the perfect balance, what’s better than a roka with only close family and friends at an exclusive location?
How: Take close friends and family to an exclusive getaway with nobody else in sight to share the roka ceremony with. Pictured here: SaffronStays Himalaica, Nainital
2. Plan an intimate wedding with those who really matter
How does ‘exchanging vows with a promise of a lifetime of happiness in an intimate space’ sound to you? If this seems like your kind of thing, ditch the mama ke chacha ki beti ka bhatija kind of guests and solemnise your marriage in the presence of those whose blessings and wishes mean the most.
How: Instead of a conventional wedding venue, pick an intimate wedding property that is big enough to accommodate your VIP guests i.e. close friends and family. Pictured here: SaffronStays Nisarga, Tala
3. Let nature be witness to your son’s thread ceremony
The thread ceremony signifies the religious enrichment of a boy and his rite of passage into the greater affairs of life. Step out of the confines of four walls and let nature betroth your son to his higher calling.
How: Pick an outdoor location that’s nestled in nature but close enough for the extended family to travel. Pictured here: SaffronStays Odeon, Lonavala
4. Baby-shower your daughter with a modern godh bharai
A little baby shower, a little godh bharai, a whole lot of fun! The traditional godh bharai is typically a women-only ceremony hosted by the mother, replete with rituals and yummy food. The imported version of this ceremony, called the baby shower, is usually hosted by the woman’s bestie or a sister and is a party full of games and fun. Mix the two and you get a celebration like no other!
Families today are spread all over the globe and Diwali is the time they come together to celebrate. And why only Diwali? The same applies for Christmas, Eid, Holi, and other festivals too. Traditionally, celebrations at home may be the norm, but the real occasion is to get the whole family under one roof. And this roof need not be the one in your home! Take your family on a festive trip to bring alive conversations in the midst of relaxation
