Aamod Bhimtal - Tranquility and serenity

Bhimtal – a place blessed with beautiful lakes and huge mountains. If you visit this amazing hill station, you must visit Aamod Bhimtal.

Introduction

Barely 6 hours drive from Delhi this place sits on a hillock surrounded by huge trees. The silence is both invigorating and therapeutic when you visit this quaint hill station.

A quaint town in Uttarakhand, called Bhimtal is the pathway to heaven. Barely 23 kms away from Kathgodam, the pristine and serene Bhimtal is a traveler’s abode. Once you reach Bhimtal, you don’t need to brainstorm anymore.

The best pick is the Aamod Resort at Bhimtal that gives breathtaking view from each cottage. The drive towards the resort lasts for hardly 45 minutes giving you a healthy dosage of oxygen.

The beautiful paradise called Aamod is tucked amidst large trees and looks alluring. The wide path had colorful trees that depicted nature’s abode to the best. We were given the finest cottage that was surrounded with foliage of trees. Though the cottages are bit pricey, yet the exclusiveness is well deserved because this place is extraordinarily wonderful. The biggest attraction is the breathtaking scenic view that belts this area and your entry onto the grounds of nothing less than a fairytale with a vast and an exuberant spread of an abundance of nature.

Accomodation

Aamod Bhimtal has 43 well appointed rooms divided into standard, deluxe and suite. All the rooms have luxury amenities to offer and a complimentary view of the stunning vistas.

We had a deluxe room with all the luxury amenities making it like a Queen’s abode. The bed was comfortable and the wide glass ushered in the warm hues of the sinking sun. A wide array of trees could be seen from the window and we could even spot a wood pecker sitting on one of the branches.

The best part of my room was the beautiful balcony that had the most fabulous sight of the mountains. Since Delhi’s polluting environment causes nothing much stress, this place offers an escapade to a magical land where the oxygen levels make your lungs happy. The sun rays fell straight inside my cottage and I loved the sounds of birds chirping.

While your most commodious stay is ensured at Aamod Bhimtal, you can enjoy the free and fresh crisp air and not to forget, a reminder of you being alive!

The cottages here are huge and have the luxurious essentials of a five star hotel. Each balcony opens to a magnificent view of the lush greenery with sunlight peeping through the mountains.

The Spa – Sublime

There is a fantastic spa called Sublime that resembles a magical paradise. The lingering aroma of tea tree oil surrounds the spa and gives you a feeling of well-being. The spa has the finest therapists that are well trained. You can try their abhyangam or full body massage that originates from Kerela.

Dining

Aamod Bhimtal has a wide variety of food options to choose from. The best part is the gorgeous scenic view of the mountains that keep your soul alive while dining.

Recreation

Besides the fabulous outdoor activities like trekking, cycling and bird watching Aamod Bhimtal has a variety of in-house games like carom board and table tennis. We would highly recommend visiting the beautiful Saattal lake that is barely about 2 km from the resort. The Nal Damyanti Tal, a small natural lake, is named after the famous mythological characters, King Nal and his wife Damayanti.

Fishing is prohibited here due to religious reasons. Sitting there and connecting with nocturnal sounds while gazing at the fish was amazing. The lake is usually frequented by tourists and people who live nearby.

The lake also has some adventure options for kids like the flying fox. The boating experience is fun and you get to watch some interesting birds while boating.
