5 Homestays In India That Are Too Good To Be True

  • Post author:

When we take vacations to escape the congestions of urban life, a strong feeling to get lost in the nature’s lap strikes the mind. Even in popular culture, the idea of being lost in a faraway place and living there in a small home is very much romanticised. Homestays cater to this thought and are popular for the same reason. Unlike hotels, these places give you the simple yet ever-so-comfortable homely feel submerged with the local flavour. When you stay as a guest at somebody’s place, have home-cooked food and spend time with the locals, you make rich and unforgettable memories that can be cherished for a lifetime.

A homestay can be of various types, simple or luxurious, ornate or simple, based on your budget. However, there are a few fine places that can give tough competition to multi-starred resorts in terms of luxury and décor, be it modern, vintage, or quirky.  Here’s a list of top five Indian homestays that are too beautiful to be true, or too beguiling to move over after your vacation ends –
