A-frame lakeview stays at Tapola on the Shivsagar backwaters, with mountain views, about 157 km from Pune.
Steep-roofed A-frame cabins are the signature of Sunset Canyon Resort, set at Tapola where the Koyna backwaters spread out into Shivsagar lake. The triangular design frames the outlook nicely: water in front and forested Sahyadri hills rising all around. Tapola is a peaceful detour from Mahabaleshwar, and the drive down through the forest already feels like a break from the city. As the name hints, evenings are a good time to be outside, when the light softens over the water and the hills fade into silhouette. After the monsoon the slopes are lush, and winter mornings often bring mist drifting across the lake. The setting suits couples as well as families who want space to breathe. Tapola is around 157 km from Pune by road.
