Mumbai, the city that never sleeps, throbs with energy, aspiration, and ceaseless movement. But just a hop,skip, and jump away from all of this is a hush-hush paradise where time unwinds to a lullaby and the cacophony and chaos of the city are replaced by nature’s melodious whispers- the Bird’s Nest Resort, a hotel where many believe to be one of the best luxury cozy cottage retreat around Mumbai.
Set amidst lush greenery at Best Resort in Shahapur Mumbai, around two hours outside of Mumbai, the resort is meant for the indulgent-but-wanting-to-keep-it-simple crowd. The Cozy Retreat Cottage is the very epitome of that combination. Intended for privacy, solitude and to spoil, this is a sanctuary designed for couples, single, and for anyone needing to recharge from the inside-out.
With its timber cladding, soft illumination and alfresco feel, it is a cuddle of comfort amidst sweeping vistas of rolling hills, forests and the dulcet tones of birdsong.
Enter the cozy retreat cottage, and find yourself in a space that has been thoughtfully designed to blend rustic elegance with modern comforts. The natural look and organic feel is completed with sleek wooden floors, original crafts and huge French windows that brings the same aesthetic to the outside. The insides are not excessive — no blaring screens or unnecessary mess. Instead, a plush queen size bed, comfortable furniture, and a private loft space makes sure that every nook and cranny offers an opportunity for peace, connection, and intimacy.
And with a private veranda, the property’s natural surroundings can be appreciated in leisure and privacy, a space that’s perfect for lazy mornings with a fragrant cup of tea or solitary moments under the stars.
While the retreat emphasizes nature and tranquility, it doesn’t compromise on comfort. The cottage features:
The absence of televisions is a deliberate choice. Here, the entertainment is birdsong, rustling leaves, and good company.
Bird’s Nest Resort – A Luxury Resort in Thane Mumbai is not a place to stay, it’s an experience to stay in. From the design of the cottages to the well considered activities and in-room services, the ethos is one of peace, health and organic luxury.
Strolling through it, you’ll find organic vegetable gardens, curated nature trails and open spaces that invite reflection, movement, or even doing nothing at all.

A retreat to Bird’s Nest is as active — or as relaxed — as you want it to be. For guests who like to keep things in motion, the resort provides:
Whether you’re traveling alone, as a couple or with a small family, nothing is accidental or random; every moment is designed to support calm and connection.
Despite its tranquil surroundings, the resort is well connected to Mumbai by road and railways. Punyadham is situated at Khinavali, Shahapur (Thane distict) approx 2 hours drive from Mumbai in a beautiful & serene environment which makes it an ideal destination for getting away from it all.
For those using public transport, the hotel staff is accustomed to advising guests on their local transport choices, including arranging for guests to be met, if they choose, with door to door service.
Bird’s Nest Resort has pinned their successes on sustainability and community involvement. The hotel is eco-friendly doing rainwater harvesting adding compost and using minimal plastic going for it. The majority of the staff are local, from the surrounding villages, and the property gets all its food and materials from the region whenever possible.
