The
Beach at Mandavi Palace is a deluxe camp, comprising,
ten hand crafted tents. Each tent has its own
verandah, spacious air-conditioned bedroom and
state of the art attached bathrooms with running
hot and cold water. Each of the tents is interior
decorated to resemble the colonial-period camps
of erstwhile royalty with carved furniture The
camp has 24 hour electricity with back up generators.
This camp
is located on a private beach at Vijay Vilas Palace,
Mandvi, Kutch. Vijay Vilas is the residence of
the Maharao of Kutch and was originally made as
a summer palace for the royal family.
The beach
is a curving stretch of white sand fringed by
blue waters, with windmills on one side, the Sunset
pavilion on the other, and an uninterrupted view
of the sea in front. The sea is safe for swimming
and the beach is ideal for walking making Mandvi
a beach-holiday paradise. Camel and Horse rides
on the dunes of the beach can be arranged.
The camp also
has a restaurant made of thatch and bamboo with
a majestic view of the Arabian Sea. It is a multi
cuisine restaurant, serving Indian, Continental
and Chinese fare as well as the local flavours.
The sea-food
and tandoori delicacies are a speciality. A romantic,
candle-light bar-be-cue on the beach is a must
have! The restaurant is also a great hit with
the Army and Air-force officers stationed in Kutch
and caters to all their important events like
Battle Honour Day, Raising Day, etc. |
