Looking for a Resort in Bangalore? Start Here
A guide to booking a resort in Bangalore — the areas, what they cost, which have pools and kids' pools, and how to pick the right one.
A local weekend market
There are 1 properties on the platform here: 1 resort. What follows is where they are, what they cost and how to narrow 1 options down to two or three worth messaging.
What the inventory actually looks like
- 0 of 1 have a private swimming pool.
- 1 list a garden.
- Weekday rates run from about ₹26,400 to ₹26,400, with the middle around ₹26,400.
- Day capacities run from 40 to 40.
- The mix is 1 resort.
A private pool is not a given in this market, so if it is essential you are choosing from a little over half the inventory. Filter for it early.
Bangalore at a glance
| Properties listed | 1 |

When to go
Best in the cooler months. Dates worth planning around from here: Christmas on Friday 25 December, New Year's Eve on Thursday 31 December, New Year's Day on Friday 1 January. Anything attached to those needs booking six to eight weeks out rather than two, because the properties that take a large group are a small share of what is listed and they go first. The single biggest saving in this category is not the property you pick — it is moving the booking from a Saturday to a Thursday or Friday. That is worth between a quarter and half the rate in most markets.
Where the properties actually are
<a href="https://bookmyfarm.net/bangalore/sullikunte">Sullikunte</a> has a single property, at around ₹26,400 on a weekday.
No surprises at the gate
The complaints people have about farmhouse bookings are almost always about something they did not know: a per-person charge that doubled the bill, a kitchen they were not allowed to use, a rule about alcohol, a deposit nobody had cash for. All four of those are stated on the listing before you pay.
Rates by slot and by day of the week, the extra-person charge, the deposit amount, the guest limits, the food and drink rules, the music timings, the check-in and check-out windows — it is all there to be read.
Three that show the range
- BMF-R519 in Sullikunte — 20BHK, the largest day capacity here at 40 guests.
Work out the total for your actual headcount rather than comparing headline rates. Above twenty guests the per-person charge routinely reorders the ranking.
Practical notes
Carry the security deposit in cash and give one person the job of getting it back at check-out. It is commonly ₹3,000 to ₹5,000, it is refundable, and it is not part of the online payment. Get the caretaker's number as well as the owner's. On the day itself the person who can open a gate or find a switch is the one on site.
Choosing between them
The fastest way to cut a long list is to answer three questions in order. First, is anybody sleeping over? If not, search on the day-time guest limit and ignore bedroom count completely. On a lot of properties the day figure is several times the night one, and a bedroom filter hides exactly the places that would suit a large gathering. Second, what is the food arrangement? Whether outside food is allowed and whether you may use the kitchen are two separate permissions, and they eliminate faster than anything else on the page. Third, where does everyone go if the weather turns? Covered seating — a gazebo, a shamiana, a deep verandah — is the most useful thing on a listing and the one nobody filters for. After that it is geography. Sullikunte tends to be the first choice here, Sullikunte the fallback, and Sullikunte the one worth checking when the first two are full.
The others in this belt
Mysore — a single property on the platform, around Hebbadi, at about ₹8,800 on a weekday. A local weekend market. One to look at: White Meadows in Hebbadi, a 2BHK farmhouse for 6 by day.
Chennai — a single property on the platform, around Mahabalipuram, at about ₹8,360 on a weekday. A local weekend market. One to look at: ECR Stays & Villa in Mahabalipuram, a 5BHK villa for 15 by day.
Inventory in these markets is thin compared with the big city belts, which cuts both ways: less to choose from, and far fewer people searching it. On a festival weekend that is often the difference between finding something and finding nothing.
Everything we list in Bangalore
- BMF-R519 — 20BHK resort in Sullikunte, 40 guests by day, from ₹26,400 on a weekday.
With a market this size the practical advice is different from a big city belt: there is no shortlist to build, so check availability first and let that decide. The upside is that far fewer people are searching here, which on a festival weekend is worth more than choice.
Booking it on the app
If you are looking for short-term rental vacation homes in Bangalore — farmhouses, villas, resorts or weekend homes — the BookMyFarm app and website carry the same inventory and the same detail. Search by city or by area, filter on the amenities that actually matter to you, read the owner's house rules, message the owner, and book the slot you want.
For anyone who has tried and failed to find this kind of property on a nightly-rate site, it is the closest thing to a purpose-built Airbnb alternative for the Indian farmhouse and villa market — because it is built around how these places are actually rented: by the slot, by the whole property, with two separate guest limits.
Comparing a few of these
| Property | Where | Sleeps / by day | From (weekday) | Pool |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BMF-R519 | Sullikunte, Bangalore | 40 / 40 | ₹26,400 | Common |
| Mahadev Stay | Kakarkhad, Ahmedabad | 30 / 30 | ₹13,950 | Private + kids |
| Rishikesh weekend Home | Umeta, Anand | 16 / 16 | ₹3,960 | Private |
| BMF-V517 | National Highway, Chittorgarh | 6 / 6 | ₹5,900 | Private + kids |
| Swastika | Ganganagar Bypass, Bikaner | 16 / 16 | ₹1,143 | Common |
Work the total out for your actual headcount before comparing these. Above roughly twenty guests the per-person charge reorders the list more often than not.

Getting there and back
Carry the security deposit in cash and give one person the job of getting it back at check-out. It is commonly ₹3,000 to ₹5,000, it is refundable, and it is not part of the online payment. Get the caretaker's number as well as the owner's. On the day itself the person who can open a gate or find a switch is the one on site.
Ask the owner directly
Every property has a chat thread attached to it. Use it before booking rather than after — owners field these questions constantly and answer quickly, and it is far more reliable than a broker's summary.
The single most useful question, and the one almost nobody asks: what usually goes wrong at bookings here? Owners have watched hundreds of them and will tell you the specific local answer.
The detail that makes a booking safe
What separates a good listing from a photograph is specificity, and it is worth using. Pool dimensions including depth, whether there is a separate children's pool, how many bedrooms have attached bathrooms, whether the kitchen is active, what the caretaker does, what is chargeable on top of the slot rate.
Where an owner has filled that in — and most have — you can size a booking to your group accurately rather than hoping.
Two capacity numbers, not one
Every listing carries a day-time limit and a night-time limit. The day figure is frequently two to five times the night figure, because space rather than beds is the constraint.
If nobody is sleeping over, search on the day-time number and ignore bedroom count entirely — filtering on bedrooms hides most of the properties that would suit a large daytime gathering.
The way this category actually spreads is a screenshot in a WhatsApp group. Somebody books a farmhouse, everyone else asks where, and the link gets forwarded. If a booking works out, it is worth putting the property name into your own group — it saves the next person the two evenings of searching you just spent.
Frequently asked questions
Swimming pool size?+
40 x 20 Feet
What does BMF-R519 cost?+
The slot rate is ₹26,400 on a weekday and ₹35,200 at the weekend. Above the included headcount there is a per-person charge of ₹1,000 a head, which at a large group moves the total more than the base rate does.
How many properties are there in Bangalore?+
We currently list 1 in and around Bangalore.
When is the best time to book near Bangalore?+
Best in the cooler months. If your dates can move at all, a weekday booking saves between a quarter and half the rate, which is more than switching to a cheaper property usually achieves.
Can I book for the day without staying the night?+
Yes. Most properties sell a half day and a full day as well as an overnight, and the day slot is what a birthday or a family lunch usually needs. It is also why the day-time guest limit is often several times the sleeping capacity.
Is the whole property mine, or is it shared?+
The whole property is reserved for your group. The listings state this explicitly and the property FAQs repeat it — you are not sharing a pool or a lawn with another booking.
Can I bring my own food, or use the kitchen?+
It depends on the property, and these are two separate permissions. Some allow outside food but not cooking; some hand you an active kitchen with utensils; a few cater in-house and do not permit outside food at all. Every listing states which applies.
Can I speak to the owner before booking?+
Yes — chat is built into every listing and goes to the owner or their caretaker rather than to an agent. It is the fastest way to settle the things a listing cannot cover, such as an early check-in or whether a road floods.
