Amara ReserveMahabaleshwar, India
Luxury Estate & Township · VelangAmara Reserve at Velang–Mahabaleshwar by The Forestry spans 60 acres of hilly terrain where the landscape does most of the storytelling. On one edge, a dense forest creates depth and privacy. On the other — the sweeping expanse of Dhom Dam opens up into uninterrupted panoramic water vistas. The west-facing rolling hills are positioned for cinematic sunsets. Every evening here is defined by warm light reflecting off the reservoir, turning the water into a sheet of gold.Narrow mountain valleys cut through our mountain reserve. These valleys are naturally populated by wild teak trees, and waterfalls emerge here during the monsoon — adding movement and sound to the landscape.At Amara Reserve, The Forestry brings the land to life through a layered, immersive experience — an ultra-luxury mountain resort, a private members' club, and a limited collection of estates woven into the terrain. Opening out to uninterrupted views at every turn and built with locally sourced materials, the architecture feels rooted and timeless.Mornings at the Reserve begin in soft mist over the water, days unfold across forest trails, and evenings gather around the horizon as the sky dissolves into gold. It's a place designed not just to be seen, but to be lived — fluid, sensory, and deeply connected to its setting.
