The Serene Getaway With a name that literally means “Serenity by the Lake†in Khasi, Ri Kynjai - Serenity By The Lake offers you the perfect getaway from the urban hubbub. Nature lovers can choose to luxuriate in perfectly appointed cottages, undergo traditional Khasi spa treatments and dine on local delicacies, the more adventurous may prefer the beautiful hill treks, boat rides and island picnics, and of course, a day at the Shillong Golf Course, dating back to 1889, and still referred to as the "Gleneagles of the East".
Ri Kynjai translates from Khasi as "land of serene environs". This resort presiding over the picturesque Umiam Lake, 20 kms from Shillong, is aptly named "Ri Kynjai – Serenity by the Lake". This boutique resort is as perfect for families seeking the ultimate all-round getaway as it is for corporates requiring discreet and luxurious convention spaces.
