Whenever I thing about going out on the weekend with family, I usually get stuck as there are few options available. The reason for starting weekend getaway series – Based on my experience, I always felt short of options. This led me to explore five star properties in nearby cities where the weekend spent would be more meaningful and luxurious. Spending time away from home at times and with family and in these properties has truly been an eventful and enjoyable experience.
The Gateway Resort, Gurgaon truly defines my experience summed up as above. This place not only offers an amazing experience, but also keeps you occupied with various activities. The Gateway Resort, Gurgaon opened last year and my team had been there for the launch. They had raving reviews to share and had a great time. I was invited on their first anniversary and realised time flies.
Reaching the Destination: It is about 45 km from Delhi International airport and close to Damdama lake. After a bumpy ride through the village, you enter the lap of serenity.
Unlike any other Taj property this is very different. Modern and truly an international property spread over 22 acres with ample space with planned activities

Our lunch menu was specially curated by Chef himself, as he had handpicked few speciality and signature dishes, from both the restaurants. The menu was extensive and I must mention that I had one of the best lunches in recent times. I will share my experience on food in next post as the food that we gorged on, requires more narration. Eg: Kosha manghso and the luchi that I had, was one of the best I have eaten in Delhi/NCR.
