Hey, Are you planning to stay there with your pets? Didn't see anyone with pet. I guess best is to check with them in advance.

The Mall road is around 45 to 60 minutes from Larisa, I had a car so travelling was convenient, but i think as the resort is on main road to manali you may get taxis ferrying towards the main market and back. Naggar castle is nearby and the best place to do paragliding ie Dobhi is also just 20 minutes from Larisa. Actually if u would like to avoid the proper market congestion this property makes up to all the other drawbacks. i loved this property. a little cost would add but does not mind against the enjoyment

It's beautiful property with wonderful staff ....resort in itself is great to explore.

Hi Harman, We usually don't have snow till January. But this year, it has snowed in higher reaches of manali already. So, there is a chance you can get lucky with snow in resort grounds for christmas as well. That being said, we can't promise anything, it all depends on weather gods. Warm Regards Team LaRiSa Mountain Resort
