Spend Quality Time with Your Loved Ones and Pet at Nashik's Best Resort

Life moves fast. Between work, school runs and screens, the simple pleasure of time together — with the people we love and the pet who is part of the family — often slips away. A weekend in the hills is one of the best ways to get it back. And in Nashik district, no place brings the whole family together quite like Manas Resort with Petting Zoo in Igatpuri — India's first petting zoo resort.

Everyone you love, in one place

What makes Manas Resort special is that no member of the family has to stay home. Children, grandparents, and your dog are all welcome. That togetherness is the whole point — and it is increasingly rare to find a resort that makes it this easy.

Green space to slow down in

Thirty years of lush lawns give everyone room to breathe. Kids run, adults relax, and pets stretch out in the open air. The cool hill climate does the rest, melting away the pace of the city.

Shared experiences that stay with you

The petting zoo turns a simple weekend into a memory: children meeting friendly animals, families laughing together, everyone a little more present. Add the infinity pool, relaxed dining and evenings under the open sky, and you have the ingredients for the kind of trip you talk about for months.
