2 weeks agoHad a wonderful stay at this homestay! The place was clean, comfortable, and peaceful, with warm hospitality that made us feel right at home. The best part was watching the sunrise slowly, as the first rays of sunlight gently touched the mountains, painting the entire landscape in golden hues. It was a truly magical and unforgettable experience. A perfect place to unwind, enjoy nature, and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Would definitely love to visit again! ❤️🏔️

2 months agoIf you love less crowded place and searching for a offbeat area to spend your holiday, this is for you. Kanchenjunga View Point Homestay is definitely one of the homestay in Rinchenpong, Ghyalshing, West Sikkim which can grab your attention for its amazing location. As the name suggests, you can enjoy the magnificent view of Mt. Khangchendzonga right from your homestay room. This homestay runs by Mr. Phurba Ji and his family. Phurba Ji is an extremely polite and sociable person who always has a smile on his face. He has decorated this homestay beautifully. He has planted many flowering and fruit bearing trees in his small garden. He has built some common seating area, a barbecue area for the guests, even he placed a small swing for the children in his garden. Now let's talk about the food over there. It's completely homemade, the veggies are form their own farm. Enjoying such delicious food in such a delightful setting offers a heavenly experience. Oh yes, I almost forgot about two important persons over there... Teji and Sky. Now go there yourselves and discover who they are. The rooms are spacious with big windows. Washrooms are clean and has all the modern facilities including Geysers. The plus point is you can access free guests WiFi at that remote location. The room rate is comparatively cheap which automatically attracts the budget traveller. One unique tradition about this homestay I must say that, Phurba Ji and his family gifted scarf as a token of appreciation to every guests on the last day of their tour. But Phurba Ji should do it on the very first day. After all, it's a welcome scarf for honoring guests. Haha, I was just joking- please don't mind. But it's true that I haven't seen this tradition in any other homestay to this day, it's truly extraordinary. Now, let me share some important points. As a traveller, I have visited many places and discovered that no place can be exactly to your liking in every respect. Of course along with all the good, there are some negatives what I need to highlight. There are two type of rooms for the guests. One is normal concrete rooms and another one is muddy house. In the mud house, there are tiny insects that are bound to annoy you, they are everywhere from celling to the floor and these are more noticeable during the monsoon. You might spot large mountain spiders at any time, no matter which room you are in. Finally, let's talk about the most dangerous creature- The Leech. Apparently, the dogs carry them in from outside. But for us tourists, this is a terrible thing, so when you come here, arrange for salt from the homestay in advance. They can be prevented from entering the room by keeping the doors and windows closed. The homestay owner should have done pest control here frequently. Another thing I feel obligated to say is that no matter how delicious the food is here, the portion size is quite small. Whether you have lunch or dinner, you won't get that full meal everytime. It might be enough for kids or women but not for men at all. So I urged the Homestay owner to increase the amount of food or atleast ask if they need some extra food during the meal or not. I hope Phurba Ji will accept the points I have raised as feedback and improve upon them in the future. Finally, I have had a good time here. Cars can come very close to the homestay, so it won't be a problem for the elderly to come here. You too, come here. Feel the place, you won't be disappointed. If you need a car to come here, feel free to contact Phurba Ji, he will arrange you the car.
