Valley View Grand, Panhala is a good resort. It is on expensive side. We had been in off season and hence found it worth the cost. The food was ok.

This place has a very good view. I love the bench on the edge from where one can watch the dense jungle from top. Watch and hear the birds while you sip your morning tea. Couple of good points to visit at a walking distance.

This place use to be famous film personality V Shantaram's bungalow.

On the highway connecting Kolhapur and Ratnagiri is a place called Amba, about 65 km from each, IIRC. That has a couple of nice resorts as well (I've stayed in both):

Paawankhind Resort

Hornbill Resort

Disclaimer: Hornbill is owned by a cousin of mine.

visit www.jungleresortamba.in for stay in Amba on NH 204. Just 4hrs / 230kms from Pune. A great place for a break, wildlife, history, photography.
