Whilst the Turkish interpretation of Serai is 'a palace of the Sultan', the Persian version means a comfortable, accommodative place where intrepid travellers and battle-weary soldiers rested and recuperated from their rigours and travels across inhospitable terrain. The Serai is the perfect blend of both those definitions! A luxury oasis of peace and tranquility that refreshes mind and body; a well deserved respite from modern day travails, trials and tribulations.
To describe The Serai as a haven to rejuvenate oneself is an understatement! Here, in its exclusive environs, you reconnect with yourself - physically, mentally and emotionally. Ensconced within the embrace of nature, The Serai creates an ambience where you will feel an innate alignment with nature, all at once transporting you into a state of tranquility and serenity. The Serai is unique for the fact it is luxury perfectly in tune with the fecundity of nature, and a one-of-a-kind destination where you will discover 'the Lap of Luxury' and 'the Lap of Nature' in the self-same instant.
The Serai is a luxurious oasis of peace and tranquility nestled within a verdant coffee estate in Chikmagalur. It resonates with the positive vibes only perfect alignment with nature brings.
The Serai is surrounded by imposing trees with thick foliage. More than just estate boundary markers, they serve as the line between the stressful and the serene, the commonplace and the exclusive.
And you will feel this distinction clearly, even as you drive up the winding, tree-lined driveway. The sheer magnificence registers a little later, as you lean on the wooden balustrade of the lobby and receive your first 'from-the-ramparts' view of The Serai. Your gaze will traverse over the wide expanse of the main pool and work its way down the waterway-inlaid central walkway. It will linger on the individual villas flanking it and move down to the The Residence at the end of the walkway. Beyond, the rolling hills form a heart-stopping backdrop! You can be sure you will return to this spot often during your stay, for yet another glimpse of this luxurious magnificence! Apart from the 30 villas, each an ode to private luxury, The Serai, slowly reveals its other exclusive secrets, one by one
