Kempty Fall Road · Mussoorie

Zephyr Estate · Resort with a pool in MussoorieStay. Breathe.
Belong.

A private hilltop resort near Kempty Falls, Mussoorie: cottages, stone huts, luxury tents and a family villa, with a swimming pool rare in these hills and just 13 rooms wrapped in forest.

The Restoration Ethos

Some roads take you home to the forest

Travel used to be about fitting it all in. Now, we travel with a different intention: to feel better, not just go somewhere new. This isn't about escape — it's about restoration.

Unwind on the garden patio overlooking misty hills, dip into twin blue-mosaic plunge pools nestled in the pine forest, and end the day around a crackling fire under a sky of stars.

Only at Zephyr · Pool & pickleball

A pool and a pickleball court in the pines, rare in these hills

You won’t find a swimming pool like ours anywhere else around here, and the estate has its own pickleball court too. Along Kempty Fall Road in Mussoorie, Zephyr is the place to swim, play and lounge with the forest all around you.

  • A blue-mosaic main pool and a separate kids’ pool
  • Loungers, umbrellas and stone decks in the shade of the pines
  • Our own pickleball court in the forest, for a game between swims
  • Lit up after dark for poolside drinks, wood-fired pizza and dinner
