Srinagar Lakeside Luxury Retreat

5 Days · Srinagar

The Experience

"A highly curated 5-day journey through the heart of Srinagar."

Dal Lake is one of the most iconic water bodies in the world, and our Lakeside Luxury Retreat puts you right at its heart. You will spend five days aboard a meticulously restored Kashmiri houseboat, surrounded by chenar trees, lotus flowers, and the snow-dusted Zabarwan hills.

Each morning begins with a private shikara ride through the quiet channels before the markets stir. Your personal host prepares traditional Wazwan breakfasts, and afternoons are yours to explore Nishat and Shalimar Bagh at your own pace. Evenings are reserved for sunset cocktails on the veranda as the lake turns gold.

Signature Highlights

Private heritage houseboat with lake-facing bedroom suite
Sunrise shikara ride through the inner channels of Dal Lake
Guided Mughal Garden walks — Shalimar, Nishat & Chashme Shahi
Authentic Wazwan dinner prepared by a master chef
Floating vegetable market visit at dawn
