A ceremony under thatchSome places are built for ordinary weekends. This lake-facing hillside was never one of them.
X on Lake sits on 25 acres that run from the top of the hill all the way down to the shore of Lake Beale: a single, unspoiled stretch where you can gather under thatched roofs, beside infinity water, among rice fields or bougainvilleas, or simply under the open sky as the light changes. It can hold a hundred guests for stays in a scatter of lake-facing chalets, close enough for shared meals and far enough for quiet moments. Plus 400 guests for the evening function or day spend.
Two and a half hours from Mumbai, with no planes and no fuss, it is near enough for friends and family to arrive easily and far enough that the ordinary world stays behind.
It is a place for traditional ceremonies and for the ones that write their own rules. For Navjot celebrations under the open sky, for mixed marriages that blend families and rituals, for rainbow celebrations that simply refuse to look like anyone else's, for anniversaries that deserve more than a restaurant table, and for parties that want both grandeur and the feeling of being invited into a magical venue. The architecture stays low and island-like; nothing rises above a single storey. The land keeps its two honest seasons, the saturated greens of the monsoon and the colour therapy of bougainvilleas the rest of the year, so every gathering is framed by something living and unforced.
Here the X is still yours to define. You bring the people, the rituals, the music, and the meaning. We give you the hillside, the water, the rooms, and the space to make it exactly what you want. A hotel in a building is not a celebration. This is.
