Diwali is really about people being in one place together — the whole family under one roof, cousins racing around the garden, diyas lined up along the steps, and a dinner table that never quite empties. A hotel room doesn’t leave much room for that. A private villa does.
Goya Hills offers villas from 1 BHK to 8 BHK near Bahubali Hills and Badi Lake, fitting anywhere from 2 to 24 guests. Diwali 2026 falls in the second week of November, so it’s worth booking early, before the good dates get taken.
Sitting among the Aravalli hills just outside the city, Goya Hills gives you the whole property to yourselves — pool, kitchen, garden, all of it.
Why a Villa Beats a Hotel This Diwali?
A villa works better for a Diwali group mainly because the space is entirely yours.
There’s no shared lobby or corridor to think about. You can do your puja, play music, or host a games night at whatever pace suits the group.
Everyone stays under one roof too — grandparents, kids, and friends together, instead of scattered across different hotel floors. Every villa comes with a pool, a garden, and free parking, and the 3 BHK adds a private jacuzzi on top.
Food can go either way. Cook in the villa’s own kitchen, or hand it over to the chef service for a proper festive spread.
Pets are welcome as well, so nobody has to be left behind — just confirm this when you book. And the location helps too: tucked behind Bahubali Hills near Badi Lake, away from city traffic, with the City Palace roughly 13 km off.
What Makes Udaipur Work So Well for Diwali?
Udaipur carries the City of Lakes name for good reason. By the time Diwali rolls around, the monsoon’s well past, the lakes are full, and evenings are genuinely pleasant for sitting outdoors.
That combination — the city’s lights and heritage on one side, a villa’s comfort and quiet on the other — is really what makes a Udaipur Diwali getaway work for every age group in a mixed family trip.
Which Villa Fits Your Group?
The right villa really just comes down to matching the size to your headcount. Here’s how the options break down:
| Villa | Size | Typical Guests | Best For |
| Earth Villa | 1 BHK | 2–3 | Couples, a quiet festive break |
| Mars Villa | 2 BHK | 4–6 | Small families, two couples |
| Goya Hills (Bahubali Hills) | 3 BHK | 6–9 | Families and friends, with pool and jacuzzi |
| Venus Villa | 4 BHK | 12–14 | Families, friend groups, larger families, couples travelling together |
| Neptune Villa (Balicha) | 8 BHK | 16–24 | Joint families, large reunions |

Renting the Entire Villa for a Family Gathering
Booking a villa for Diwali generally involves one individual booking the entire property, and all guests remaining in the same property instead of being divided into separate rooms. It’s perfect for joint families, groups of friends, and small private celebrations.
A couple of quick clarifications before you book:
- Choose your villa by the number of guests, including kids; we’ve got capacity for all.
- Check-in is from 1:00 pm, check-out by 11:00 am.
- Make sure of what’s included (breakfast, pool, chef, service charge)
- Find out the house rules about music, decoration, visitors, chargeable extras, and minimum age (18).

What Villas in Udaipur Cost During Diwali
Pricing depends on villa size, whether there’s a pool or jacuzzi, location, and the season you’re booking in.
As a reference point, Goya Hills’ villas for rent in Udaipur page lists rates around ₹18,000–₹20,000 per night, including breakfast, pool access, and service charges.
Diwali is peak season, so rates run higher, and some minimum-night rules may apply. Worth checking exactly what’s included before comparing numbers across properties. Split nine guests across an ₹18,000 night, and that works out to roughly ₹2,000 a person — worth weighing against booking several hotel rooms for the same group.

A Few Ways to Make the Festival Feel Different This Year
If you want the Diwali stay to feel a bit more than just a villa booking, a few things are worth building in:
Decorate the villa yourselves — diyas and rangoli at the entrance and through the garden go a long way. For a morning darshan, Ubeshwarji Temple is about 2.4 km away. Lakshmi Puja can happen right in the villa’s living area, followed by a family dinner.
For Dhanteras shopping, the old-city markets around Hathi Pol and Bada Bazaar are worth a visit. Jagdish Temple and Bagore ki Haveli sit about 12 km out, and the City Palace and Lake Pichola are roughly 13 km away, best seen in the evening. Sajjangarh Fort, about 12 km from the villa, is a solid sunset spot. And a poolside games night, cards, board games, music after dinner, rounds things off nicely.
For those who plan on celebrating with firecrackers, use green ones and follow local laws; the villa is located in a quiet, hillside neighborhood.
A Simple 3-Day Plan
Day 1: This is the day you arrive, check in after 1:00 pm, enjoy lunch, take a dip in the pool and then light diyas once dark.
Day 2: Diwali day itself. Visiting Ubeshwarji Temple in the morning, relaxing in the afternoon, Lakshmi Puja at night, and a chef-prepared dinner to cap the day.
Day 3: Slow morning, check out by 11:00 am, maybe a visit to City Palace or Jagdish Temple en route. The Maharana Pratap Airport is approximately 37 km away from the villa.
Three days is a comfortable amount of time for the trip; it can be extended if you prefer.

Conclusion
A Diwali trip to a villa really comes down to what the festival is about in the first place: space, privacy, and time with the people who matter. Udaipur brings the lakes, the palaces, and the festive evenings, and a private villa brings a pool and a property that’s entirely yours for the stay. Whether it’s a smaller family gathering or an 8 BHK booked for a full reunion, the best move is simply booking early.
