The Pavilions Himalayas Resorts

Sheltered serenity ▪️ Pokhara Valley
Nepal
Everything we do is custom made by real Asia experts...

These are two of our very favourite hotels in Nepal – the combination of high standards of comfort, a strong focus on sustainability, and a feeling of genuine connection to the culture and landscape tick a lot of boxes.

Sheltered within the serene Pokhara Valley, with a backdrop of pine-covered hills and snow-capped Himalayan peaks, the two Pavilions Himalayas resorts offer a taste of Nepal’s legendary tranquillity. With a firm commitment to ecologically-responsible operation, and an understated, modern design, the resorts feel fresh and contemporary.

Although distinctive in their own right, the two resorts share common threads. Bright, open villas and tented bungalows offering seclusion and privacy; a décor of stone, wood and linen reflecting and highlighting the landscape; a dedication to ensuring guests experience the region’s culture on a personal level. It wouldn’t be a complete Nepal journey without dipping your toes into a little trekking, and a curated day trek between the Pavilions Himalayas properties is the perfect way to do it. Take the walk at your own pace, and unwind with a spa treatment and farm-to-table dinner at journey’s end.

Why we love it

“A very special place to come home to after a few days of trekking. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.”

Pavilion Himalayas, The Farm

Pavilion Himalayas, The Farm

Private villas dotted around the farm blend contemporary, rustic style with traditional Nepalese touches. Each villa sleeps two, with a cosy fireplace – bliss after a trek – and private terrace, open onto the unspoiled landscape. Skilled chefs create dishes that explore Nepal’s rich culinary culture, with a menu based on what’s in season and available on the farm. In warmer months, you can dine at tables arranged in the garden, and enjoy a pre- or post-dinner drink in the lounge’s swing seats. There’s a state-of-the-art spa, sauna and yoga studio onsite – ideal for soothing tired muscles after a trek – and the outdoor pool offers lovely, long views of Nepal’s extraordinary landscape.

A handful of tented villas overlooking the still waters of Lake Phewa make up the Pavilion Himalayas’ outpost at Lakeview. Reached by paddle-boat over the lake, or via a trek through the hills, the Pavilions Himalaya Lake View represents comfort and elegance in the midst of some of the world’s most remarkable terrain. Enormous panoramic windows frame the water the mountains beyond. There are standalone bathtubs with mountain views, dedicated outdoor spaces and alfresco dining. When you’re not out exploring, enjoy Nepalese and international dishes prepared using organically-grown ingredients from The Farm, and relax with traditional Ayurvedic massage.

Highly Recommend Selective Asia

Have been to Asia with Selective Asia twice now, and we can't fault them. We had the most amazing holiday staying in 6 different locations throughout Thailand. Selective Asia did us proud by giving us a well thought out itinerary. The accommodations were first class. Our private guide called James was very knowledgable and made our holiday very memorable.

Susan Bartlett, Thailand

Personalised and spot on journey

Personalised service all the way up to departure and then throughout via on the ground help and advice in country as well. Ideal.

Another fantastic trip with Selective Asia

We’ve been on 5 trips to the Far East with Selective Asia over 17 years with the same consultant (Lionel). They take the time to tailor the holiday individually with invaluable local knowledge and once again got it spot on. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Our trip to Japan was outstanding

We had had several discussions with Andrew, our agent, before booking the trip and he incorporated all the activities we were interested in plus recommending other activities that he knew we would be interested in. Much of our trip was self guided and SA provide an excellent app to help with this. It was intuitive, easy to use and had the option to be able to contact someone locally if necessary. The whole trip was seamless and managed at a thoroughly professional yet friendly level. I would travel with this company again (we have travelled with them before.)

Heather, Japan

Fantastic holiday

Using Selective Asia took all the stress out of booking and organising the trip ourselves as we were travelling around the country. Selective Asia were really responsive to our needs and created our perfect honeymoon holiday. They were available whenever we had questions or needed some help. I would highly recommend using their service!

Alice, Sri Lanka

Great planning and organisation, coupled with an amazing experience with the local guide and driver. Everything about the holiday was magical.
