3-star hotels in Alibag

Staying in Alibag

Alibag mixes cultural and natural attractions: the Kolaba Fort, reachable at low tide, Alibag Beach, hilltop temples such as Kanakeshwar, and a market area where shops sell fresh produce and seafood. It sits about 100 km south of Mumbai and is well connected by road and sea, so it works for a day trip but rewards an overnight stay.

The hotels on this list sit in different parts of the area rather than one cluster. Addresses place several along Alibag Beach Road and near the centre: Hotel Maple Ivy (0.3 km), Hotel Ravi Kiran (1.3 km), Lotus The Lake view Resort (1.5 km), Acons Palm Beach (1.6 km) and Ruturaj Inn (2.0 km). Others lie further out: Nilaya Nest Away and Sia Resort And Spa on Nagaon Beach Road, Sanidhya Resort on Kihim Beach Road, and Paradise Villas & Resort, Hotel Samudra City, Silvanus Forest Retreat and Mayfair Manor Alibag on or off Rewas Road. That spread suits couples wanting quiet, families needing pools and play areas, and short-break visitors who prefer to be close to the town.

Plan your stay

Getting there and around

Alibag is about 100 km south of Mumbai by road, via the Mumbai-Goa Highway or the coastal road through Navi Mumbai. Buses and taxis run from Mumbai, and the drive takes around 2-3 hours depending on traffic. Ferries also operate from the Gateway of India in Mumbai to Mandwa, from where local transport connects to Alibag. Within Alibag, auto-rickshaws, taxis and rented scooters are the easiest way around, and local buses connect the town to nearby villages and beaches.

When to go

October to March is the best window, when the weather is cool and dry. April and May turn hot and humid, while June to September brings heavy monsoon rain and rough seas that limit beach activities. The post-monsoon months bring lush greenery and pleasant temperatures, good for sightseeing and water sports. Hotel ratings and facilities here are consistent year-round, but beach time and water sports line up best with the cooler, drier season.
