We had seen lots of snaps on the internet about Lavasa and went out from Pune with family. This place looks like an abandoned city with all the buildings in a dilapidated state. Most of the restaurants and shops are shut down and someone told that due to environmental clearance the town project is abandoned by the developers. One has to pay an entry fee of Rs.500/- besides cost of travelling..

Don't go on the images posted online, as it is not what it was years ago.. it's just a lonely place. Not maintained, no good food, entry fee Rs. 500/-. Everything there seems to be burnt out there. Just another city that has been closed down since years. Its completely deserted area. No fun, No rides, NO PUBLIC - TOURISTS at all. We were all alone in this place.

The city is losing its charm, and so lakeside promenade is! Walkway is good in evening, you can have a walk in evening with cool breezes, but cafes and hotels are almost closed, colorful buildings are faded now, I didn't find it attractive anymore. I must say, Lavasa is been made so beautiful, but they have failed to maintain it. So think twice if you are planning for lavasa.

Lavasa is now a ghost town.
Check before getting there.
Its even difficult to get a decent meal in Lavasa, as almost all outlets are permanently closed.
Promenade is the last remaining place to take a walk.
Exercise caution, when passing over culverts/bridges. Also dont get too close to the railings.
Lavasa is done for.

Entry fees are now Rs. 500/- for every 4-wheeler to be paid at Dasave entrance.
Food was good in some shops...they have many activity to do but still
My view is
Total Waste of Money and Time of 2hr....

If you read the descriptions of Lavasa you'll expect Italians Portofino in the middle of India. And also the website promises a lot. But to be honest its a huge disappointment! The houses at the waterfront are in really bad conditions, restaurants on a really low level and on the other side of the lake only ugly buildings. The landscape itself is nice but the Portofino-fake is really poor.

We visited from Bengaluru and were left very disappointed at the state of this place. Read some reviews which mentioned that the place is dying a slow death and how true it turned out to be !! We had actually planned an overnight stay. When we reached, firstly it was difficult to find the apartment that was booked, secondly with great difficulty managed to get hold of the owner and thirdly when he arrived, the first statement was we were early and the rooms were in a terrible state. BTW It was was 10AM when we reached Lavasa.
Coming back to the place, unfinished buildings, less crowd gives you the feeling of a ghost town !! I wouldn’t visit this place again nor would recommend to anyone. We just left the place right away and took a hotel in Lonavala. Kind of replanned our itinerary

Once famous Lavasa is a ghost town now...not much activities there... idea of project is fantastic but implementation is far from completed.... entry fee rs 500 is too much...in near future whole project will be shut down... surely...

One of the best places to be in Maharashtra during Monsoon and winters. The Scenic view of mountains and lake is breathtaking.
Must visit destination for 2 days atleast

I am planning to go to Lavasa just for lunch from Pune. is it suggestible option? also, what about the parking option for the restaurants on the pomorade.

Lavasa is a long journey from Pune (over 2 hours), thus not sure that it is worthwhile just for lunch. Parking near restaurants is available at some parking lots.
how is the way to go from pune to lavasa?
is it good to go by bike?

Road is excellent. You would definitely enjoy the ride. Watch out for steep turns. Parking fee has been hiked as it's off-peak season now.
Iam going to lavasa with family what are the other thimgs to do in lavsa other then adventure sports and water sports.nature trail has been closed because of landslide??

Yes, like Jiten S has written, Lavasa is a very laid back place with not much to do actually. When we went, even adventure and water sports were very limited. It's more like a place to eat, enjoy and entertain yourself.
