The resort lies in close proximity to places of tourist interest and is located just 22 Km or about 45 minutes away from Nainital and about 300 kms from Delhi NCR. Situated 39 kms from Kathgodam Railway Station, this serene and mesmerizing hill station can be accessed easily by road or train, and by air via Pant Nagar Airport just 55 kms away.

“The new openings are a part of the group’s continued commitment to the state. We feel there are still unexplored locales within the state and many tourism circuits have yet to be explored, hence, we are on a quest to put Kumaon Uttarakhand on the national tourism map that has close proximity to Delhi NCR, U.P., Punjab & Haryana”

Bhimtal is a lake city named after Bhima, a famous Mahabharata mythological character. Bhimeshwara Mahadev Temple, a historic Shiva temple on the banks of Bhimtal Lake, is said to have been built when Bhima visited the area during the Pandavas' exile (vanvas).

Apart from spectacular landscapes, Bhimtal is also known for boating, kayaking, aero & water sports, paragliding, zorbing and other activities. Bhimtal Lake Aquarium, Victoria Dam for picnics, Hidimba Parvat, Astronomical Observatory, and Butterfly Research Centre are among the other destination attractions.
