Guests can expect amenities such as outdoor pools, spa facilities, Ayurvedic treatments, and guided nature walks. Most resorts offer free parking, airport shuttles, and family rooms. Accommodations vary from ethnic Gurung-style cottages to boutique cottages with hand-cut stone walls. Room rates typically fall in the mid-range to luxury bracket, depending on location and season.
