I was on my maiden vacation to the subcontinent with my fiancé and what better place to kick start the trip than India, an amazingly exotic country. Being avid hill station lovers we decided to start our trip from Manali, the famous hill station in Northern India. Along with the snow capped peaks, being a total foodie I was also looking forward to having some authentic Indian dishes there as I had heard a lot about them.
While pre-booking, I decided to use the travel website of Antilog Vacations based on positive recommendations from a friend. The site was helpful and adept in finding the correct accommodations and we got our entire India leg booked at nominal prices too.
The Heritage Village Resort in Manali was our first abode in India and we both were quite excited. The travel guys had arranged a cab from the Delhi international terminal and after the picturesque 15 hour drive we reached the hallowed gates of the Heritage. The resort impressed us from the outset and we got a duplex suite in the western corner of the resort. The room was large(>500 sq ft) and the windows ensured a glamorous view.
The resort was slightly removed from the rush of the central town but the “country side location” worked well for us. Sightseeing options were aplenty close to the Heritage and the hotel manager was friendly and doubled up as our guide. The trip to Rohtang was one of the major attractions and the place was really awesome and the 3k was worth spending on that trip.
The food was a tad disappointing though given my high expectations and the quantity too left a lot to be desired. They should improve on this aspect get increased footfall. Thus on the whole we found more positives than negatives and hence recommend the hotel and responsible services of Antilog Vacations.
