The hospitality project in vicinity to the Tadoba National Park, Maharashtra, proposed on an 18 acre site required a great focus on the comfort of the guests due to the arid-tropical climatic condition of the region where the average rainfall is 1227 mm per year. The existing contours of the site were favourable to propose a lake in the northeast quadrant of the property. Considering the aesthetic significance of the waterbody, the shape of the lake was defined to accommodate maximum vistas from the villas.
