Barsey Retreat Homestay

All services are not only good; but excellent as described by the other reviewers. I only add one very personal opinion on food and kitchen. The owners themselves cooked foods mingle with love & care, and also wash the dishes as like as in our household. These all feels us a second home in the lap of The Great Mountain. These hygiene is very much essential for the kids and aged.

This is truly one of the hidden gems among homestays in Hattaban village. The location is mesmerizing, offering a stunning view of the valley in front and a breathtaking range of mountains beyond. On clear days, the sunrise view is simply unforgettable. You’ll find various types of birds in the valley, often roaming freely in front of the rooms—though they can be a bit shy at times. The homestay features beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean private rooms with cozy blankets, modern bathroom fittings, and geysers. There’s also a reliable backup electricity supply during power cuts. The outdoor balconies are adorned with beautiful flowers, orchids, and succulents, adding to the charm of the place. The homestay is run by the owner and his family, which adds a warm, personal touch to the hospitality. The cost of stay is charged per person and includes delicious home-cooked meals and snacks. One of the most delightful surprises was the family’s deep knowledge and genuine care for the local flora and fauna. They are always eager to help and offer guidance for planning tours. We stayed for two nights and were taken care of with great warmth and attention. Looking forward to visiting again! Check out my photos for a better look.

Our stay at this homestay was an absolute delight! Nestled in the lap of the mountains, the location offers breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere. The cottage was cozy, clean, and well-maintained, with a charming traditional touch. The hosts were warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Waking up to the fresh mountain air and the sound of nature was truly refreshing. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the beauty of nature with friends or family!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Barsey Retreat ! The hosts were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. The room was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Plus, the meals were fantastic – we especially enjoyed the Alu paratha and veg pokora !

Even though advertised as situated in Okhrey Village, it's quite a bit further away from the main village, that can be a good thing or a bad thing dependent on personal choices. This place doesnt offers view of any snowcaped peaks, although this a nice and quiet place to stay at for a short getaway. The rooms and toilets are in pristine condition, and the food offered is amazing. For just the price of 1000/hd per day this is an amazing deal.
