The place is good. Looked just like in the pictures. Very economical. Ankur is a great host. He arranged taxi for both pick and drop. He runs a Dhaba from where you can order food and they do free home delivery. Food was tasty.

Romantic Dome Getaway

ElizabethRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Highly recommended. Amazing Stay at Shimla! 🌟 We had an incredible time staying at the dome in Shimla! The place is so cozy and well-equipped, with a heater and hot water, making it perfect even in the chilly weather. The view of the mountains and trees was absolutely spectacular — waking up to that every day was a treat! The best part of our stay was the amazing service by Rahul. He was always available to help with anything we needed, making sure we felt comfortable and at home throughout our stay. Additionally, Ajay was always quick to answer any queries we had, which made the entire experience so much smoother. And don't miss out on the food! The host's mom prepared some of the best meals we've ever had. The chai was perfect, and the siddu (a local delicacy) she recommended was delicious. Every meal felt like a home-cooked feast, and we were treated like family. On our way out, Aunty Ji even offered us dried apples, which were a sweet and thoughtful gesture.

Mountain top cottage Amazing views. 4-6 persons

AnandRating, 5 stars2 months ago
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.

OCB Stays: Stargazing A Frame Chalet

DrishmeetRating, 5 stars11 months ago
We had an incredible stay at the property! The drive through the jungle to reach the property was beautiful and added a sense of adventure. The food was delicious, and our host was responsive, friendly, and always ready to help. The property itself is peaceful and surrounded by stunning, dense forest and apple orchards. We loved walking through the jungle and enjoying the amazing views from our room. This was my second visit in the last six months. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a serene and picturesque vacation spot. It's a perfect getaway to relax and enjoy nature at its best!
