Staying in Khecheopalri sanctuary homestay in Sikkim was an unforgettable experience. The breathtaking natural beauty of the location was matched only by the unparalleled warmth and hospitality of our hosts,Latop and Seerat. Despite the simplicity of the accommodations, the genuine care and attention from them made it feel like a home away from home.
A unique highlight was their incredibly friendly mountain dogs and one cat—who added an extra layer of joy to our stay. Their affectionate presence made the experience even more charming.
While the rooms might not have been lavish and the bathrooms were basic but very clean, the genuine hospitality, delicious homemade pizza(a must try in Latop's Pizzeria) and the magical setting near Khecheopalri Lake made this stay an unforgettable gem. Highly recommended for those seeking a genuine and heartwarming experience amidst nature's wonders.
Loved my stay at the Khecheopalri Sanctuary Home Stay. I stayed there for 3 nights and could've easily stayed for longer. The location is perfect for nature lovers who want to explore the sacred lake and the surrounding forests and villages. Latop and Seerat were great hosts and absolutely enjoyed my conversations with them. Highly recommend trying Latop's wood-fired pizza during your stay here.
We planned to come for two nights, extended to five, and stayed eight! Beautiful homestay, peaceful location, mesmerizing view, and warm hospitality!
An excellent place for someone independent who likes to explore and doesn't expect to be babysitted by the host. The homestay did not provide food, but easy options were nearby, and the host was very helpful. A wonderful place for hikes to dive into Sikkimese culture and simply just to Be.
Big thank you to Laptop, Sirat, all dogs, and the Laptop's family
MY wife and I reached Sikkim and were deciding where to start our journey and found kechuperi on the map. And then we found this Homestay that we felt would be a nice place to stay for 2 days before we make our way to other place. We could not have asked for a better Homestay or a better set of hosts than Latop and sirat. The Homestay was super simple and absolutely beautiful. Just what we we’re looking for. Located in a very convenient place for a recluse like us, the Homestay was sort of a camp zero for most hiking spots that latop and Sirat were kind enough to guide us towards. What was meant to be a 2 day stay ended up becoming a 10-day stay and we loved every minute of it. The absolute calmness and stillness of the place, the beautiful dogs and the wonderful hosts all made this such a gem of place. Since there is no food served at the Homestay, you’ll need to walk down to the restaurants below which is a beautiful 5-10 minute walk. If that’s something that you don’t mind, then this is the place.
From the moment I walked in the entrance to the Khichopalri Sanctuary, I was thoroughly impressed. The homestay gives such warm vibes and inviting host Latop and his family are very nice and accommodating. The rooms are comfortable and gives a pleasant view from the balcony.
The food was absolutely wonderful. I especially enjoyed the local tongba and bricked pizza baked by owner on special demand of guests.
Also, the location is in a beautiful jungle, close to lake and beautiful monastery’s around with few untouched and pristine treks with the virgin beauty of shimmering waterfalls and breathtaking landscapes.
Overall, what a wonderful trip and a great prize. Special thanks to you for making all the arrangements for my stay. I thoroughly enjoyed it and appreciate all the work the host put into my visit. I would definitely recommend the Khecheopalri Sanctuary Homestay as a great place to come to relax and enjoy yourself.
