A trip to the Cutest Resort near Mumbai #HiddenGem

We all need a vacation for ourselves to get rejuvenated from our daily hectic schedule.

It's like we need a detox therapy for our soul.

Me and my fiancee, often go on small trips at least once every 3 months.

Before going on a trip, we spend a lot of time finding a perfect place. And for us perfect means unique, surrounded by nature, serene and of course comfort!

So, while searching for new places, we came across this place "Manas Resort with Petting Zoo, Igatpuri"

It has an in house petting zoo with more than 20 different breeds of doggos including German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, Labrador, Japanese Akita, French bulldogs, Jack Russel, Tarrier, and many more.

Not just four-legged buddies, they have African gray parrot, rabbits, exotic birds, and fancy hens too.

Isn't it interesting?

Without even giving it a second thought, we did our bookings and visited this heavenly awesome place to meet those 'pawfect' creatures and to cherish some lovely moments.
