Cottage holiday rentals in India

We stayed at Aamir’s place in July 2024 when we visited Kashmir for the first time with our families. Aamir, Muneer and Aadil made the entire experience extremely comfortable. The very day we arrived, we were upgraded without asking for it as they saw that my mum in law can’t walk a lot so we were given the rooms close to the entrance. We arrived quite late (around 10pm) because of flight delays and had no idea where we will find food from at this hour but they made sure that we don’t sleep hungry. They prepared a full meal this late in the night and for all days that we stayed there, even if we needed something at 1am in the night, they were all happy to help. The place is beautiful and very nicely maintained. They have a beautiful garden just behind the rooms where we had breakfast and made some core memories. Aamir also recommended some places to visit and helped make transport arrangements. Thank you for the amazing hospitality. This was home away from home.

We had a truly lovely stay, and I must say, Rishi is an exceptional host. He went out of his way to ensure that we were comfortable in every possible way. His suggestions for places to visit, dining, and shopping were always spot-on and reliable. The property itself is stunning and well-maintained, offering a peaceful retreat. If you're looking to unwind and escape the hustle and bustle of the city this is the perfect place to relax. Highly recommended!

The villa itself is beautiful—clean, well-maintained, and comfortable with all the necessary amenities for a relaxing stay. However, the location is quite far from Manali, which can be inconvenient if you’re planning to explore the main town frequently. It’s a great place if you’re looking for peace and isolation, but keep the distance in mind when booking

I loved the house and the beautiful surroundings. The host was prompt and responsive to our needs. The place is near to several grocery stores and parking was in the premise which is rare.

We went with high expectations and were not disappointed. The place is clean with amazing views and a superb and helpful service staff. The in-house food is good, although slightly pricey. My family had a great time soaking in the views and relaxing after a long day of sightseeing. Take up Shreyan's suggestions of off beat places to visit like Soyl village, you will be thankful. Only thing I would point out, is that the place is about 100 mts from a busy road and there is construction happening is several places around. I hope the pristine views are preserved for the future.

I’ll truly recommend to stay in Swarg Cottage in Naggar, Manali. The Service, the food, the view and overall cottage is so good. Behaviour of the care taker(Deepu ji) the owner of the cottage(Yash ji) is so nice towards the tourist. If you want to experience a peaceful life then go for Swarg cottage. Chiki(there dog) will also guide you till the cottage and you will love the company of there dogs(Chiki & Coco). I will give 10 on 10 to this cottage experience. Surely i will stay back in the Swarg Cottage if i will visit Manali again.

I booked this for a newly wedded couple for a short stay of 2nights . It’s their feedback . They loved the place, the design , architecture, atmosphere, ambiance and vibes . The bath tub was the highlight . Place is secure and offers great privacy . Serene and beautiful surroundings. Homely feeling with excellent assistance from private the staff as well as both Prabhu and Mukesh. Highly recommended. And hope to revisit for a longer stay . One feedback would be more accessible parking.

Magical place. Clean and very well maintained property. Beautiful and tasteful construction. It is a place where you would like to go again and again. Very peaceful surroundings. Good food. Super friendly and trained staff. Very well managed. I visited the place with my family with a small pet dog. There was ample of space for pet to roam around. I am very happy with the experience.

Siddesh, his team and Clemente are amazing people! Everything I read about the property is 100% true. The food is amazing. The stay is at an untouched location. They were generous to set up a candle night dinner at the beach. We are extremely happy and would recommend it to everyone!

The odessey resort was a very comfortable stay with a lot of privacy and a nice neat place without any hassles. The swimming pool was very clean and the facilities were good beds were very comfortable and overall a five star stay

Unique place at a good rate close to Shimla but away from crowds and clutter. In a peaceful orchard setting. Views of snow peaks is a big bonus. Food is modern and of high quality. Friendly host and his father who spent lot of time chatting with us, allowing us a lot of flexibility and prompt service. It goes beyond a regular Airbnb, with lot of focus on service and warmth. Makes sense for a large group since there are 2 cottages/buildings with a common area. Good for families, kids. We were there in spring, still needed a bonfire to keep us warm. Must be amazing in winters and we missed the full bloom of the flowers. Kufri is closeby, Narkanda peak is an hours drive and so is Shimla. Work friendly as well, Internet never dropped.

Great location. Akshay & his team very cooperative & Friendly. Food served was tasty. Behaviour of persons working there was very nice. Surrounding areas covered with fruit trees. Enjoyed stay there. I recommend the same.

The place is really nice and cozy. It is really serene and beautiful. Great place for a couple. Jacuzzi pool is a bonus. Kitchen has all the basic amenities. Place is near Ganpatipule, 35-40 mins drive. Devghali beach (1 hour 45 mins) is a must visit place. Food is decent, limited options but taste is good. Nearest nearby Restaurants are at 10kms range. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

Shivnath was a fantastic host—easy to communicate with and very proactive in sharing all the necessary details about the house. The location is perfect for a quiet and refreshing getaway. Would love to visit again!

We had a wonderful stay! The place was peaceful and very quiet, set in a great area with a lovely garden and old trees—perfect for our furry friend. The hosts were very responsive and explained everything clearly, making us feel right at home. The local food recommended by Sanya was absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!

Great place as described in description. Active and supportive staff. Really liked the home cooked food.

Lovely place, all away from the hustle, gives you a tranquil and pleasant experience. Surrounded by only nature and it’s beautiful sounds, would definitely recommend. The host was very responsive and helped us in all ways. Special mention to the caretaker who made sure we had a good time.

This place is rightly a ‘Guest Favourite’ Aditya is a great host who will ensure his best that you have a good stay experience. This house is beautiful and surroundings are peaceful. Think lush greenery and peaceful vibe with urban amenities like swimming pool, cycling tracks, badminton courts, etc It comes alive when it rains!

It was a lovely stay at this property. I traveled solo for this trip from Mumbai. I wanted to be sure about safety and messaged Shaurya before booking the place. He made sure I got my privacy and neighbourhood is great. Suraj caretaker was very nice and host's mother was also there at the property. I met her she is very sweet. Property also has a lovely terrace and at night stargazing at the terrace and tur tur sound of frogs was soo beautiful experience. Sunrise view was from bedroom itself, it was like a natural alarm. I usually wake up late but in mountains to witness the sunrise I woke up at 5AM. Food prepared by Suraj was tasty specially the pahadi cuisine. Overall a great stay. Thanks for making my solo trip special.

Pala has been one of the best stays I have booked through AirBnB. The house is beautiful and so thoughtfully decorated. Surrounded by fields of wheat in May with the Dhauladhar range in the background, the views are pristine. Some good cafes nearby, close enough to Dharamshala but away from the chaos. Fully stocked kitchen and all the listed amenities are functional. Shoutout to Seema Didi. And finally, Rahat and Puneet were the best hosts we've had. Wonderful couple, super helpful, proactive and responsive. Had the best recommendations. They truly elevated our trip. Cannot recommend the place enough!

Kavita’s place is spotlessly clean. The rooms are tastefully done up with stunning views of the mountains. It felt like home. The caretaker Vinod is friendly and cooks delicious meals. I stayed at Nand Maya with my family and we had a comfortable stay. Kavita is responsive and was always available. I would surely go back to Nand Maya again.

Property was great. A place that is so beautiful and beyond your expectations in the overall setup and unexpected natural beauty, yet so close to Pune. Great caretakers and awesome home cooked food. The best place you can spend with your close ones or family in the garb of the beautiful nature that is so well maintained by the host, that you'll forget all your worries and have the most peaceful time of your lives.

The hill cottage had an attached jacuzzi pool which was an icing on the cake. A great location well connected to nature. Also, the caretaker Rina took great care of us. Would definitely give her 5 stars!

"Absolutely breathtaking—the most beautiful place we’ve ever stayed! This property exceeded all our expectations. Everything was just as pictured, if not better. We enjoyed every moment—from the peaceful mornings with coffee by the river to the stunning evenings watching the water flow past the property. The design of the villa makes it a perfect viewing point, and we couldn’t get enough of the serene atmosphere. Location-wise, it was incredibly convenient: restaurants, a supermarket (right at the entrance!), and the beach were all within easy walking distance. Words can’t fully capture how special this place is. If you’re looking for a perfect blend of nature, comfort, and accessibility, look no further. We’ll cherish these memories forever!"
