Sterling Holiday Resorts has launched Sterling Ameris Kasauli, a boutique retreat nestled amidst pine-clad slopes and panoramic Shivalik views. Located along the scenic Dharampur–Kasauli Road, the resort invites travellers to slow down and rediscover mindful mountain living.

Once a colonial hamlet, Kasauli has grown into one of North India’s most loved escapes, where misty mornings, heritage trails, and a gentle pace of life blend seamlessly. Just a short drive from Chandigarh and Delhi NCR, Sterling Ameris Kasauli offers peace, wellness, and understated sophistication for travellers seeking a serene getaway.

The resort features Shivalik-facing rooms with private sit-outs, combining contemporary mountain chic with natural elegance. Warm palettes, handcrafted accents, and design simplicity mirror the quiet grace of its surroundings.

Dining at Valley View offers more than a meal, it’s a mindful experience. The pure-vegetarian menu features local classics like Siddu, Sepu Vadi, and Cholai Kheer, reinterpreted with modern sensibilities and served against panoramic mountain views. As evening falls, the terrace transforms into an open-air lounge, ideal for yoga, relaxation, or leisurely conversations.

As part of Sterling’s Discoveries & Experiences program, guests can explore Gilbert Trail, Manki Point, Christ Church, Sunset Point, or join guided pine walks to fully experience Kasauli’s charm.

Vikram Lalvani, Managing Director & CEO of Sterling Holiday Resorts, said, "Sterling Ameris Kasauli reflects our intent to grow with purpose, expanding into destinations that embody serenity, design, and discovery. Our ‘What a Trip’ curated circuits link destinations like Kasauli, Chail, Shimla, and Kufri into immersive travel experiences, shaping a soulful travel ecosystem across India."

Madhav Gupta, Director of Satvik Bliss Pvt. Ltd., added, "Our vision for Ameris Kasauli was to create a retreat that honours the land’s natural grace while offering guests refined simplicity. Partnering with Sterling was a natural choice, and together we hope to present Kasauli as a destination that stays with you long after you leave."
