5 Tips to Find Your Perfect Homestay
With Covid-19 restrictions in place, it seems we have been locked up in our homes for ages and working within the same surroundings. But now, it is time for us to take a break and look outside at nature and get rejuvenated!
If you are planning for a Work From Homestay, short break, or a long vacation, you must be looking forward to that extra comfort in your stay away from home—a perfect homestay— instead of having to go through the discomfort of putting up in a nondescript hotel room with featureless service marked by plastic greetings and toothy smiles. Before you start the process of booking one of the best homestays in India, there are certain important things that you should keep in mind.
Here are a few tips for you:
1. Hosts who match your interests
First, make sure you know exactly what you want from your Work From Homestay, or vacation. If, for instance, you want to spend leisure time by the seaside, have an adventure deep in the jungles, or sit on the mountaintop overlooking a serene valley, book nearby homestays. Look for hosts who match your interests. For example, those who will allow you to eat your choice of food, especially if you are a non-vegetarian, or would allow you to bring along your pet to the homestay, in case you want to take him along.
2. Amenities to look for
See that the homestay you are choosing has all the amenities you would want, like AC, 24-hour electricity, water, and a high-speed Wi-Fi connection for your workstation. Besides, great homestays would be those that are well-connected with your present location and are close to the places you want to visit. Also, find out the available means of travel to nearby attractions you want to see.
3. Great pictures of laidback ‘workstations
A homestay that displays art—paintings, statuettes, or shrub sculptures—tells you many stories. If you are searching for a homestay online, make sure the place has some good pictures of the building from outside, as well as of the room/rooms, toilets, and common areas.
An ideal homestay should have the basic things that you may need, such as a coffee-maker, a good supply of tea/coffee, or toiletries, like shampoo, shower gel—or soap, for that matter.
4. Food of your choice
If you are going on a vacation, make sure to look for ones that will provide food of your choice, or have a kitchenette/kitchen equipped for your basic needs, especially if you prefer home-cooked food. Don’t forget to look at the maintenance part and see how clean—and sanitized—your host keeps it.
5. Online booking option
Finally, make sure the host accepts online booking with your preferred payment mode, and don’t forget to look at the small print—especially the cancellation policy if you need it by chance.
