Barsey Retreat Homestay

Our family had the pleasure of spending four wonderful nights at Barsey Retreat Homestay, and the experience was truly memorable. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed by the hosts, whose genuine hospitality and kind nature made our stay even more special. The food served was fresh, homely, and prepared with care, reflecting both quality and warmth in every meal. What stood out the most was the simplicity and sincerity of the hosts—they are truly gracious and attentive, ensuring every guest feels at home. The rooms were clean, well-maintained, and equipped with attached bathrooms, geyser facilities, and reliable power backup, offering both comfort and convenience. The location of the homestay is exceptional, with breathtaking 180° views of the valley and surrounding hills. Watching the sunrise from here was a truly divine experience. The peaceful atmosphere, pristine surroundings, and the presence of a variety of birds added to the charm of the place. We also visited Anden Monastery, which is within walking distance, making it a lovely and accessible excursion. We wholeheartedly recommend Barsey Retreat Homestay to anyone seeking a serene and authentic mountain experience, and we are already looking forward to returning during the Puja holidays.

This homestay at Hattaban Village, West Sikkim is really a nice place to stay for those who loved to spend time in peace and beautiful environment. The owner of this homestay is Serpa family, they are humble and honest. We spend two nights in this homestay during our Barsey Rhododendron trekk. It was really wonderful to spend time here .

If you are searching for peace of mind then visit this resort. Well located offbeat from where the mountains can be seen too clearly.

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.

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!
