Summers are for famjams

Family holidays are much-needed. We get so caught up in our daily routines that often we forget to really sit and spend some quality times with our loved ones. And summer break is the perfect time to head out with the family to someplace beautiful to create some lovely memories. We’ve handpicked some great retreats where there is something for everyone in the family.

1) Shivadya Resort & Spa, Manali, Himachal Pradesh

Shivadaya is a designer boutique spa-retreat nestled snugly amidst apple orchards in Karjan village. Built from the ground up using the ‘Zero Wastage’ concept, this mountain hideaway is truly a marvel by itself. The 15 rooms here have splendid view of the mountains, valleys and orchards. You can even enjoy  lunch with the family in the apple orchards or even by the gurgling Himalayan stream on special request. Indulge in activities like cooking, camping, hiking and trout fishing this summer at this spectacular mountain hideaway.

2) Hotel Highlands Park, Gulmarg, Jammu and Kashmir
