Gaj is an eco luxury resort which proved out to be a great vacation I've had in ages. So when I was planning on going on a vacation we were really confused whether to go to the hills or the mountains, gaj retreat it offers you both. Located on the plateau at mansalwal in Punjab , this place is the perfect weekend getaway that we all want. Their rooms are super luxurious and comfortable with hot tubs in their bathrooms, they have tent rooms, poolside villas for great pool party and they also offer Greek villas if you want to experience a little about Greek culture.

The food at the restaurant is super delicious, a lavish spread of buffet which is included in the room charges.

We spent 4 wonderful days relaxing with our family in the comfortable pool villas. Even though the weather was cold we received a warm and friendly welcome from all the staff at Gaj resort. The food was amazing, I have never seen such a tasty variety of food, fruit, and sweets. We spent one afternoon enjoying a luxury picnic in the dried up riverbed close to the resort. We all experienced a wonderful holiday in the resort and look forward to planning another visit next year.

This place is definitely high on my recommendation list. I went here on an extended weekend and the experience was just amazing.
I booked a Chateaus which had a private pool in the backyard and a big washroom with tub and spacious room.
The place is big, green and beautiful. Service here was 5/5 and food is lip-smacking. And the icing on the cake is an amazing line of adventure activities this place has to offer.
There is off-roading, riverside snacks, trekking, ATV rides, paintball and several other stuff. We had a gala time being here. The overall experience of this place is just beyond words. Will love to be here again.

One place we all wanted to travel and so had a lot of expectations. Alas !! They were no where near to it. To start from service is as poor as it can be. They made us wait for 4 hrs just for plain drinking water bottles. Nobody picks up the call and if by chance they do pick up ur call they r in a hurry to say no and hang up the call A big NOO.... Please don't waste ur money and precious holiday time here.

Recently i visited Gaj retreat resort with my fiancée I don’t know where to start with i mean everything was over the top. From Hospitality to their services. The view from the resort was mesmerising. We stayed in their private pool villa. Staff were on their toes to make our stay wonderful. The highlight was there food which was mouth watering and the kind of setup one can expect at dinner was breathtaking. They have this exotic dinner by the river which itself is a lifetime experience. Can definitely say that it’s a must visit for couples, family and friends.
