About us

Homes built with a point of view.

Infiniti Casa is twelve homes in two places: ten in Bandra West, Mumbai, and two weekend getaways in Kashid, in the Alibaug region. Each is chosen for its character and looked after by people who know it.

The person behind it

Meet Varun.

Varun Patel, Founder

A Bandra boy, actor and entrepreneur, Varun created Infiniti Casa to give back to the neighbourhood that shaped him.

He brings an entrepreneur’s instinct, a designer’s eye and an actor’s imagination to create homes with a personality of their own.

When he is not on stage or in front of the camera, he is working with designers on the next one-of-a-kind home, checking out Bandra’s newest restaurants to keep guest recommendations fresh, or travelling the world as a guest, picking up ideas.

    Chief Happiness Officer

    Vraj

    Less of a title, more of a personality trait.

    Born in Delhi, raised in Akola and adopted by Mumbai, Vraj gave up the engineering route for films, acting, people and stories. With degrees in film and media, casting experience and more than 400 artists managed, he is warm, resourceful and very social.

    He sings, acts, rides motorcycles and has at least a hundred Airbnb stories. Ask nicely and he might even take you for a spin around Bandra.

    Head of Housekeeping

    Jayshree

    The unofficial mother and boss woman of the family.

    Tamilian by birth and Mumbaikar by heart, Jayshree heads the entire housekeeping operation, making sure every home is spick and span and the team keeps its standards.

    She is also an exceptional cook, a singer, a dancer and an alarmingly accurate mimic of everyone on the team. Give her a chilled Thums Up after a long day and, within five minutes, there is a good chance you will be friends.

What we hold to

  • Character over uniformity

    No two homes share a style. Some are calm and soft, others graphic and loud with colour. What they share is a reason for every choice.

  • The details, said plainly

    Compact sizes, stairs, visitor limits and street noise are told up front. A stay that is right for you beats one that surprises you.

  • One conversation away

    You can ask the person who looks after the homes. Choosing between two, planning a month, bringing a group: say what you need.

The neighbourhood

Bandra, the point of it all

Bandra West is a neighbourhood built on contrasts: a Portuguese fishing village swallowed by Mumbai, a coastline of promenade walkers and joggers, a lane culture of independent cafes and art studios, and a skyline that still lets you see the sky. It moves fast and feels personal — easy to mistake for a small town until the auto-rickshaw drops you at Carter Road and you remember you are in a city of twenty million.

  • Carter Road

    A seaside promenade that shifts from morning joggers to evening families to late-night walkers. The cafes along the strip are reliable, the sunsets are reliable, and the crowds are reliably worth it. About a five-minute walk from most Infiniti Casa properties near the sea.

    Stays near here
  • Pali Hill

    A leafy residential pocket with winding lanes, low traffic, and an unhurried pace that surprises first-time visitors. Independent bookshops, neighbourhood bakeries, and older bungalows sit alongside newer builds. Less than a minute from Little Bandra Studio on foot.

    Stays near here
  • Chimbai Village

    One of the oldest fishing communities on the Bandra coastline. The lanes are narrow, the pace is slow, and the light at midday is remarkable. Cloud House and Bandra Art House sit in or near these lanes. Visitors looking for Bandra's pre-modern character find it here.

    Stays near here
  • Bandstand

    A wide seafront promenade south of Carter Road, famous for its open-air views, rock-cut steps, and the occasional film-star neighbour. Bandra Cottage and India House are a short walk from here — close enough to be worth the early morning visit.

    Stays near here
  • St Andrew's Church and Hill Road

    The gothic church at the edge of Hill Road anchors the neighbourhood's older identity. Hill Road itself is Bandra's main shopping street — busy, unbeautiful, and essential for groceries, flowers, and a particular kind of everyday city energy.

From the airport
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport is approximately 12–20 kilometres north of Bandra West. Travel time by cab is typically 30–60 minutes depending on time of day. Always allow extra time during peak hours (8–10 am and 6–9 pm). Verified: July 2026.
Within Bandra
Bandra West is connected to the western suburbs and the city centre by train (Bandra railway station, Western line), auto-rickshaw within the western suburbs, and cab services throughout. Not all lanes accept full-size cabs — some properties note a two-minute walk from the cab drop point.

Travel times are approximate and change with traffic and local construction.
