SaffronStays

SaffronStays is India's premier family-owned network of fully-staffed, managed private vacation homes, built for families, by a family. We operate at the intersection of two powerful needs: Indian families who own prized private vacation properties and want to unlock their value, and aspirational Indian families seeking private, staffed homes to celebrate life's most meaningful milestones, all just a drive away from India's major cities. Founded by Deven Parulekar (Ex-Partner, EY | Cyber Security) and Tejas Parulekar (CA & Banker), SaffronStays began with one belief: India deserved the same private, unhurried holiday experience that the world's best homestays offered. The first step was Parsi Manor, Matheran, a 120-year-old colonial home that changed everything. A decade later: → 450+ curated private villas across 80+ driveable destinations → Luxebook Top 100 Most Powerful Indian Luxury Brands, 3 consecutive years → Featured: Conde Nast Traveller, Forbes, Architecture Our portfolio reflects India's incredible diversity, from havelis in Rajasthan, geodesic domes in the Himalayas, heritage houseboats in Srinagar, century-old homes we have revived in Maharashtra, Uttarakhand, Himachal and Southern parts of India. Alongside these timeless spaces, we also offer modern villas, contemporary retreats and fortress-style residences in offbeat destinations. Every home in our network is selected for its character and cared for with consistent hospitality, blending the warmth of a private retreat with the assurance of a trusted brand. Whether it is getaway with your family, college friends reuniting, or teams stepping away from screens, our spaces are designed to make togetherness feel effortless. When the setting is right, memories do not need to be planned, they simply happen. With a focus on people, places and the promise we keep, SaffronStays is building a hospitality brand that sets the benchmark for private vacation homes in India.
