Itching to get away with the little ones? Longing for the outdoors and nature activities in which the kids can immerse themselves in and run wild?
Here is a list of amazing home stays in Western India you can check out:
Experience living with a farmer, and participating in the farming process! Spread over 20 acres of land, Farm of Happiness is the home of Rahul and Sampada Kulkarni, and will take you back to basics. The house is built in the Konkani style out of completely natural and local materials and processes. You can go on a bird-walk, sleep under the stars, and go for an early morning stroll. This is a highly educational and informative trip for kids, because through a farm tour they will get to know about how food is produced, and all about conscious eating. Your stay at Farm of Happiness is guaranteed to be thought-provoking, and will have positive implications on your child’s food habits.
If you’re looking for a quiet idyllic place where you and the kids can switch off from the busyness of everyday life, Elsewhere…. is the place to head. Located in unspoiled Mandrem, it was originally a family holiday home built in the 1880s. With restored villas and tents, you can take a trip back to uncomplicated times, and the kids are going to have a blast right beside the beach. This is perfect especially if you’re looking for something that’s secluded. The location of Elsewhere… is private, and it’s only revealed to you once you make a booking. Depending on the season, you might even have a chance to see turtles and other marine life in this hidden spot!
The only problem is that once you enter Olaulim Backyards, you just never want to leave.
With so much space to run around and so much to explore, the kids will never get bored. Especially with novel experiences like showering in the open, under coconut trees!
Apart from the lovely and charming couple who runs the homestay, the other residents are all of the four-legged variety! For animal lovers, you have for company many dogs and cats, and even a pony, a goat, and a donkey! They offer many outdoor activities that the kids will love – like kayaking, swimming, and cycling. The Charao Islands and Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary are not too far, so you’ll never run out of things to do!
Grab some vitamin sea in this hidden gem of a homestay! Owned by Niyoti and Vinay who are production designers by profession, The One is a Medditerranean-themed 2 bedroom apartment tucked away in a gated community in Ganapati Pule. If you’re keen on exploring beaches that aren’t Goa, this spot on the Konkan Coast is perfect for you. The kids will get a nature break, and have great fun running around and exploring outdoors!
Stay at Red Brick House, a property managed by Saffron Stays, in the beautiful hill station of Panchgani. This sprawling 4 BHK bungalow offers you the perfect destination for a quick weekend break with family and friends. It’s spacious enough for kids to run around and engage in some fun indoor and outdoor activities. Enjoy the sit out and home cooked food, especially if you’re reluctant to head out to crowded places and hotels. Bask in the down time surrounded by the panoramic views of Panchgani!
