Hale Mane Estate - Guest house in Sullia - Dakshina Kannada, India

I had an incredible experience at this place. The perfect escape from the chaos of everyday life. From accommodation and hospitality to food, transportation, trekking, everything was top-notch. I highly recommend visiting this place at least once in your lifetime. The unique experience I had there will undoubtedly draw you back. It's a place away from the digital world, where you can truly appreciate happiness without relying on electronic gadgets. Don't miss out on this exceptional experience!

We had an amazing stay at the Hale mane estate which is a 50 years old traditional Kannada style homestay. The hosts made us felt welcoming and were amazing. We had great traditional food there. Overall a great experience.

I had a great time at Halemane. One of the best places to get away from the busy city life. It's so calming and relaxing as it's amidst the nature. The stay was was great, the food amazing and a wonderful host! Speaking of the host, Ajith took care of us really well, made sure that we faced no problems and was always with us. The trek on the first day was quite adventurous passing through the forest and streams. The view from the peak was beautiful and totally worth it!!! The second day was spent with fun filled activities. All in all it's a complete package, a home away from home. One should definitely visit with their family and friends!

Loved the old house feels and the warm welcome. The homemade food is exceedingly good. The waterfall hike, mud games, tentstay and ranipuram trek were all wonderful experiences. Would recommend for a great weekend getaway.

Had the best time in Halemane! Most calmest trek I have ever been and the most beautiful stay ever! The service provided by Ajith was incredible! The stay , the food and mainly the cleanliness - chef's kiss! Whenever u are in Halemane - definitely try Kaltappa - breakfast! Thank u Ajith and his family for giving us the best experience and letting us try unique dishes!

Had the pleasure to visit this place through Mt. Kinetics and it was an amazing experience. Absolutely loved our stay at this homestay nestled amidst nature. Ajith was incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. We were served delicious food. The genuine warmth of the host and his family made the experience even more special. Overall, an amazing experience that left us rejuvenated and wanting to come back for more!

Oh how do I start ? A beautiful stay located in the midst of the lush green forest.. a beautiful stream in front of the stay.. a mountain view.. love each and every moment spent in Halemane. It was an amazing experience, away from the city life, to learn and experience life in a village, amazing hospitality by Ajith and Family! Delicious homemade food.. .. pluck fresh fruits from the trees... the mud games (volleyball & Tug of war)... How can I forget the home tour.. I am sure you will be lost in the home (so many hidden rooms ) and love the way they are still continuing to follow the culture which have been followed by ages.. love everything about the place!! It's magical Oh wait... What am I forgetting.... a trek to the unexplored peak..an overall 16km trek with no one around "Just you" .. the journey through the forest is insane and magical during monsoon.. if you are lucky you can sight some amazing snakes, frogs and insects.. well I did ... I am Definitely visiting the place again! There is a lot which I have missed to include.. there is no fun if you don't experience it!! Go for it, it will be worth .

Very decent place with cleanliness and care. They are really good hosts. Food they provide is completely home made. One feel their ajji mane memories here in hale mane. Bathrooms and toilets are really kept clean. Hot water is available 24X7. Tents are 3 sharing and 2 sharing, and the place where tents are set up is also clean and safe. Ample space to walk around, play mud games.. The owner treats you like there family not like guests. Thy do have some board games to sit n spend time in rainy evening. Many near by places to visit. Ajith's mom is the cute n beautiful lady who cooks for you and talks to you and makes your stay comfortable. I Would love to go again.
