In a world where peace, calm, serenity and privacy are hard to come by, we give you all this and more as we welcome you to The Machan.
Hidden amidst one of the most bio-diverse spots on the planet in the Western Ghats we are back to greeting you at this vision of tranquillity.
Built over 30 acres of indigenous rain forest, in perfect harmony with Nature, and with our famed tree houses extending 45 feet vertically into the air, and hundreds of feet apart from one another, we are not just private and peaceful but have been safe and socially distant for over a decade now.
While we are already renowned for our rustic yet luxurious interiors in our comfortable and serene tree houses, we are also equally aware of our social obligations and count your safety as our utmost priority especially in these tough times.
The Machan also goes the extra mile to protect you and ensure that your experience with us is a memory that you will cherish long after you have left our gates, hopefully to return very soon again. Please allow us two minutes to explain our safety features that are designed keeping the best global standards in the hospitality industry.
Your safety and security begins right at the front gate, the minute you drive into The Machan.

Our check-in process is designed to ensure zero-contact and zero hassle. This contactless system is created to ensure that your safety and convenience is always maintained perfectly.
To ensure 100% safety of your room, it is sealed after disinfection and sanitization. Once you enter, utmost care has been taken to ensure a completely sanitized, aesthetic and luxurious machan. Every room caters to the highest standards of privacy, comfort and offers stunning views of the world renowned Western Ghats.
At The Machan, we are primarily off grid and generate most of our energy from Solar and Wind. We request you to refrain from using power hungry appliances like Hair dryers, Curlers, Induction cooktops etc. We tend to use natural light to the maximum extent possible & use LEDs after dusk.
This is your time to disconnect with bedlam and reconnect with all that is important to you. The Machan is a digital detox destination that encourages you to bond with your family and loved ones. Due to very sporadic network, if you’re expecting a call please ask the reception for a local number which can be routed to your Machan.
The reception can also help you with limited satellite internet connectivity packages upon request. However, do remember that these packages are slow and limited and so we request you to turn off your auto update features in all your devices.
We strongly recommend that you keep the mesh doors shut at dusk and lighting at low levels to keep moths and other insects away. If you happen to have any unwanted visitors in your room from the forest; please do not panic or attempt to approach. Please call us at ‘9’ & our team will assist you.
In our endeavour not to disturb nature and our surroundings, we maintain an absolute silence zone after 10:00 pm. We encourage you not to play loud music or make noise and disturb other guests along with our natural neighbours who cherish this silence.
We highly recommend exploring the various paths along our property. Please use the trail map provided in the room to explore the property at will. A list of things you can indulge in include Bird walks, Hill Treks, Forest Bathing, Yoga, Documentaries, Night Walks, Star Gazing, Board Games, Book Shelf, Outdoor Game paraphernalia and Mountain Biking. Should you choose a more quiet and relaxing massage instead, do try out our treatments at the Aaranya Spa.
At The Machan you can feast on wholesome and delicious North Indian food made fresh and served at our restaurants. Do please pre book your meal timing slots to comply with social distancing norms.
You can also opt for contactless room service for all meals where the food will be pre-packaged in sealed disposable biodegradable containers and left at your doorstep.
We would request you to keep all your valuables in the safe lockers provided in your rooms. For any other information please refer to the guest services directory on the writing desk or call our guest services desk on extension “9”.
Our check-out process is also designed to ensure zero-contact and zero hassle. This contactless system is created to ensure that your safety and convenience is always maintained perfectly.
It is our constant endeavour to provide you with a unique experience where every moment spent becomes a memory for life.
We love having you with us at The Machan and wish you a pleasant, relaxing and rejuvenated holiday amongst the bounty of nature as it should be.
