When I was invited to take a look at the website MyIndianStay.com I was not sure what to expect. By now I have spent a few hours on the site and I have to say I quite like the prices they quote! At that prices I am game to try out a few properties soon! I decided to pick up five that excited me due to various reasons and share it on my blog.
A Tree House in Leh, Ladakh
I visited Leh in 2005 and I am completely smitten by the place. It was less of a journey and more of a pilgrimage for me, that trip to Ladakh. While browsing through the various stays I stumbled upon a tree house! Now I can only imagine what fun it would be to stay in a tree house anywhere but I can take a bet that in Leh it is going to be extra special. I actually want to drop everything and run straight to Leh and try out this tree house!
Fully Furnished AC Rooms in a Guesthouse in Calangute, Goa
From a tree house to AC rooms is quite a contrast. But I like all kind of experiences, from luxury to trekking! I picked up Calangute because it is a bit out of my comfort zone. I am a peace/nature kind of a person. And Calangute is North Goa, the party hub! I liked the appearance of the room and the surroundings and hence this preference for a Guesthouse! It is also in pretty Goa colors!
Luxury Tents in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan
I have been to Jaisalmer and I so so like the place! I have been to sand dunes but I have not stayed in tents. This time if I go, I would like to stay in a tent closer to the dunes. I would take a camel safari where I can spend a night in the desert under the stars and wake up to watch the sunrise!
Standard Room in a Guesthouse in Naldhera, Shimla
Naldhera is just 22 kilometers ahead of Shimla but it is a different world. It is a peaceful place, where you do nothing other than enjoying nature. But I also know that there were only a few stay options which were on the higher side. So when I saw a room in a guest house I wanted to go back to Naldhera!
Bamboo Cottages in Wayanad
In this list Wayanad is the only place I have not been before. It is the lure of exploring a new place plus living in a bamboo cottage that gets me excited. I have had my share of hotels. I am always game for an offbeat experience which these bamboo huts could offer!

Luxury tents in Jaisalmer is on my mind for the Mary Mela. Rest of the suggested places too look good Mridula 🙂
Oopsie…I misspelled .. It’s Maru Mela and not Mary Mela 🙂

Mrithula mam, these places are all so beautiful and amazingly cozy and welcoming. Only some places we visit give the feel of home and I bet all these did. The guest house and its background in Shimla is my fav!
Thank you so much Abhilasha.
