Jowai Retreat

Jowai Retreat offers a peaceful escape in Lad Rymbai, where cool mountain air and rolling green hills set the scene for a slow, restful holiday. Tucked just off the main by-pass, it combines easy road access with a feeling of being comfortably away from the rush. The retreat is designed for travelers who want simple comforts with a touch of leisure. Reliable electricity means you can unwind without worry, whether you’re catching up on photos, planning your next day’s route, or simply relaxing with a book. One of the highlights is the swimming pool—a welcome luxury after long days spent exploring waterfalls and caves. Take a refreshing dip, lounge by the water, and soak in the quiet surroundings. On-site dining is another plus. The in-house restaurant serves warm, hearty meals so you don’t have to hunt around for food after a busy day of sightseeing. It’s also a convenient spot to start your mornings early with breakfast before heading out on day trips. Secure parking on the property makes it easy for guests arriving by car or hiring private taxis, especially those traveling as families or small groups. Jowai Retreat is an excellent base for exploring some of Meghalaya’s most beautiful natural attractions. Tyrshi Water Fall, with its arched bridge and sweeping valley views, is within easy driving distance. Phe Phe falls and the turquoise pools of Krang Shuri Falls invite you for nature walks, swims, and photography. History and culture lovers can visit the Nartiang Monoliths, one of the most significant megalithic sites in the region. Adventure seekers have plenty to look forward to as well. Krem Chympe offers the thrill of cave exploration in a raw, dramatic setting. Kupli Dam and Laboon falls are ideal for quieter outings—gentle drives, scenic vistas, and peaceful time by the water. After each excursion, returning to the retreat feels like coming back to a calm, familiar haven. With its balance of reachability, basic comforts, and proximity to some of Meghalaya’s most striking landscapes, Jowai Retreat suits road-trippers, weekenders from Shillong, and long-haul travelers keen to discover Jaintia Hills at an unhurried pace.
