“Summertime is the magnificent creation of Hans (who originates from the Netherlands) and his wife Sucheta (who was born in Mumbai). Anyone with a passion for travel will find them to be absolute treasures. And, admittedly, it’s hard not to be envious of the adventurous life they’ve led. Hans and Sucheta set up an India tour business together in the 1980s, and over the last three decades have explored almost every nook and cranny of the country to uncover remarkable places to stay. It’s not surprising, then, that they’d go on to establish one of their own.

Summertime opened in October 2015, after a span of two years from design to completion. The conceptualization of Summertime brought together their wonderfully complementary artistic talents. Hans handled the design and construction, while Sucheta was responsible for the gorgeous interiors.

No expense has been spared or detail overlooked. The villa has been built as a place they’d want to live in themselves – and, they did for six months, just to make sure it was comfortable and homely for guests.”
