Why book a private pool villa in Alibaug?

How to reach Alibaug from Mumbai

By ferry (most popular)

Catch a ferry from the Gateway of India to Mandwa jetty, then take the connecting bus or a cab to your villa. It’s quick and scenic, and you skip the highway traffic entirely.

By Ro-Ro (with your car)

The Ro-Ro ferry from Ferry Wharf (Bhaucha Dhakka) to Mandwa lets you take your own car across the harbour. Book in advance on weekends.

By road

Driving via Panvel and Pen takes roughly 3 hours depending on traffic. This is the best option if you’re coming from Navi Mumbai, Thane or Pune.
