Resorts en Govardhan

Sarbojit Biswas India

Shri Radha Brij Vasundhara Resort and Spa is probably the best property located in Vrindavan. The main gate / entrance to the property is on the Parikrama Marg ( a metalled road and a maintained dirt track run side by side to the boundary railing of Giriraj Govardhan). We had the notion that Giriraj Govardhan would be visible from the gate itself or from the rooms, but that is not so. Beyond the boundary railing, there is dense forest and hence not visible from the property. The whole property is spread over a lot of space and when we entered by car through the back gate, we first passed through private cottage enclaves all named after different rivers. The section named Tungabhadra is the only one which is part of the resort and we put up in Family Cottage 23 which is just beside the spa. The cottage opened into a expansive drawing room with a small wall TV but a very big sofa which can be used to sleep also. On the left is the kitchen area with a sink and tap and electric kettle. There are cabinets in the kitchen to keep things but no other gadgets. The master bedroom is on the left of the drawing room, and quite spacious with wooden bedside tables and a large table to place your luggage on. The bathroom is spacious and tastefully done. The toiletries provided are of good quality. The other bedroom is actually an extension of the drawing room, separated by a wooden partition which is high enough but not up to the ceiling. There is another bathroom attached to this bedroom, albeit a smaller in size. There is only one geyser but it is connected to both bathrooms. The beds are of decent width and comfortable, though the spring mattresses seem a bit old, hence noisy and when you change sides, the person sleeping beside you also moves. The AC in the second room was a tad bit noisy. Overall the stay experience was extraordinary and very cosy for a family of four. The highlight of our stay was Matki the restaurant of the resort.
