Firstly, my apologies for how long it’s taken to post my report! My wife and I had always wanted to visit India and as we were already visiting Dubai, the trip to Jaipur was a mere two and a half hours away. We researched long and hard about where to stay and Jas Vilas kept coming up as spotlessly clean, well positioned, excellent staff and with great amenities. We were not disappointed. Due to occupancy, Jas Vilas is very popular, we experienced two different types of rooms. We spent the first few nights in a Heritage Room and a couple of nights in a standard room. Whilst both rooms were quite lovely the Heritage Room was absolutely stunning. Traditionally decorated with four poster bed, incredible wall art, Indian mosaics and tiling and even a in room fountain with rose petals, which was turned on by our concierge to celebrate our arrival. The gentle tinkling of water aiding our sleep as we gently drifted off, with yet another memory of the pink city. The ensuite bathroom with his and hers vanity units, sunken bath plus shower and bidet, was lovingly decorated with stunning floor to ceiling painted tiles. The outside corridors and walkways give a glimpse to a bygone era of colonial architecture with stunning marble walkways and ***icured gardens. The centrepiece outdoor swimming pool is beautiful maintained and cleaned daily - although in January with temperatures down to around 7 at night (25c during the day) we decided to leave the swimming costumes in our suitcase.
Breakfast and evening meals served in the estates’ quaint dining room are cheerfully served by the excellent maitrė d and cooked to order. Food was excellent and incredible value for money.
Around the house and gardens, staff are gracious, humble and incredibly helpful.
We’d without doubt recommend Jas Vilas for a short, medium or even a longer stay.
Finally it would be remiss to not single out the owners, the wonderful charming Lilly and Mr Sinch. They are without doubt part of the allure of this fabulous place and treat guests as a part of their family, taking a genuine interest in booked trips and excursions and sharing local advice and knowledge. Lillys’ tales of Indian times gone by are fascinating and our chats were a highlight of the visit. We will return but meantime, please keep our places warm!
