ABOUT US
The Idea
Villa Vani is a private sanctuary for discerning travellers — a place where elegance meets soul, inspired by the rich cultural rhythms of Mysore. A home away from home for design-conscious visitors, the villa is filled with an eclectic collection of art, books, and objects gathered from travels across Africa, Asia, and Europe. Every corner reflects a deep appreciation for beauty, craftsmanship, and the quiet pleasure of a well-curated life.
The Villa
Set in a lovingly restored 1970s bungalow, the villa is located in a peaceful, elegant suburb of Mysore known as Vani Vilas Mohalla. Reimagined with a retro modern aesthetic, it has four luxurious bedrooms with attached bathrooms, generous living spaces, and lush gardens that embody South India's tranquil charm. The villa is a special place where you can feel at home, eat well, and be inspired by the magic of Mysore.
The Name
Inspired by the strength and resilience of remarkable women in India’s history, Villa Vani is named after Maharani Vani Vilasa Sannidhana (1866 - 1934), whose vision, leadership, and fortitude defined an era and made Mysore what it is today. The villa is a tribute to her enduring legacy, and to all strong women who inspire us to lead with courage and purpose.
