HouseBoat In Srinagar
Come and live the experience of staying in the lap of paradise where your transport mode is a small boat called Shikara. Passing by floating markets and shops reach this beautiful stay in serene Nigin lake with no one in the vicinity. Devour yourself to the sumptuous meal cooked by your host. Worth an experience, I must say.
I still remember our stay at the houseboat, intricate wooden interiors, the delicious Kashmiri chicken curry cooked by our host and warmth and hospitality that made us feel like a home away from home.

Heritage Villa, Manali
I still remember our road trip from Kullu to Manali in the year 2000, I was in school back then when my dad took us to Manali during our summer vacations. The beauty of the place left a lasting impression on my mind and I have always wanted to visit the place again. It is a dreamland with endless treasures for photographers. Surrounded by lush meadows and vibrant Beas River for your company. Marvel the beauty of nature at the royal suite of this heritage villa. A stay at heritage villa amidst the spectacular views of glistening the Himalayas is bound to make a lasting impression on your mind.

Wonderful choice of places.
Thank you so much 🙂
I love traveling and this approach really appeals to me. I like to go off the beaten path and really explore a place, steering well clear of tourist traps. These unique hotels are just gorgeous and I especially liked the ornate houseboat, the tree house and the villa. Your blog is a treasure trove of exactly the type of places I like to see. My favorite way to travel is to rent a car with my family and just drive to whatever looks interesting. Wherever you end up, there’s bound to be a cool place to stay and you never would have found it otherwise. We call it Serendipity Traveling and it’s ever so much fun.
