Namita SawantHmmBrr Agro Resort Junnar, like its unique name, HmmBrr that is moo of a cow, is exceptional in all sense. It is an excellently designed, sustainable resort that offers a cosy stay in the laps of nature.
We were visiting Junnar to attend a family wedding function that is when we searched for a resort in Junnar. Thankfully, the search results brought us to this one and we were so grateful to have chanced upon this resort.
For me, HmmBrr is home, it is peace, it is that feeling of oneness with the other beings in our universe, and it is bliss! In our years of travel exploring different cities of our incredible India, I have rarely come across a place where I felt relaxed instantly. This is one such place.
How To Get to Hmmbrr Agro Resort in Junnar?
Hmmbrr Agro Resort is well connected to Mumbai & Pune via roadways. Located at Nimgaon, I could not imagine a resort this beautiful until we reached our destination. We travelled via Mumbai Pune highway, halted in Pune for a few hours, and continued to Junnar from Pune. The roads leading up to this resort are good. They are dotted with beautiful farms and mountains.
Although it is near Pune, especially Malshej, Junnar is still an offbeat destination. It is blessed with the abundance of Mother Nature, and you must visit it once in lifetime. Famous for places like Shivneri, Lenyadri Ashtavinayak temple and several other destinations, you can find more about the places to visit in Junnar in this blog.
HmmBrr Agro Resort Junnar – Rooms
This agro tourism resort is built on a big property and features unique offerings bestowing one a chance to connect with Mother Nature. Surrounded by mountains and infinite greens, the moment I stepped in, I felt I was stepping into a farm.
The owner of the resort, Mr. Chetan Parkhe welcomed us and showed us our room. So, here you will find two categories of room.
- Chickoo Rooms – built in the middle of a chikoo farm
- Mango Rooms – built in the middle of a mango farm.
We visited the resort towards the end of May when the mango trees were laden with mangoes. Oh! What a remarkable sight! Therefore, we stayed in the mango room. It was a unit with one bedroom and hall with stairs opening up to the sky. The room was cosy and comfortable, and both rooms had a double bed. We were four of us and could comfortably enjoy our stay here.
The beautiful veranda surrounded by huge mango trees is a sight I can never forget. I have never stayed in an agro resort before and so HmmBrr holds a special place in my heart. Sitting on the charpai bed outside the room, I would gaze at the stars for hours together. The sky was clean and the air, surprisingly cold, for summers. I had the most peaceful sleep here.

Hmmbrr Agro Resort – Food Review
Within the resort, there is a big dining area where the host serves homely meals. The resort package is such that it offers all-inclusive meals and trust me; the food they serve is delicious and healthy. Made from natural ingredients sourced from local farms and cooked by local women, the meal is simple yet delicious, with the goodness of health. I enjoyed each meal at the resort, especially the variety of chutneys.
Hmmbrr Agro Resort Junnar – Overall review
We spent three nights at this beautiful resort and since it had just opened to guests a few weeks ago, there were hardly any rooms occupied. It was as if we had the whole resort for ourselves. A stroll amidst the beautiful trees were soothing to the mind and soul. It is one place where you can disconnect with the social world and just enjoy the company of the nature. The peace of just walking in these lanes is indescribable.
My family especially my daughter loved her stay here. The best part was the hospitality extended by the host, Chetan Parkhe. At least once a day, he met us to take our feedback. He also shared his story on building this sustainable resort. How he is working towards strengthening his local community, uplifting their living standards by offering them the necessary skills to enhance their livelihood.
He has done a great amount of work in building a cloud kitchen, which also serves food to the resort. He is encouraging local women to up their communication skills and grow the community kitchen to serve more resorts around Junnar. Even the guide who went with us as we explored the diverse landscape of Junnar was a wonderful person and took good care of us.
Final words
Hmmbrr Agro Resort Junnar is a beautiful resort and I highly recommend a stay here. Living amidst a farm and a visit to a cowshed are rare experiences that connects us to our roots. These humble experiences after all makes our life peaceful.
