Udupi Homestay: Lakshani - Home Stay in Karkala - Udupi, India

I had the most wonderful experience during my stay at this property. Surrounded by the beauty of nature, it's the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and truly unwind. The warm hospitality extended by owner Hegde sir made me feel right at home. His kindness and attention to detail made my stay truly memorable. And let's talk about the food! The South Indian delicacies served here are an absolute treat for the taste buds. I can't get enough of the delicious dishes prepared with love and care. Special mention to Shailaja akka for her amazing tea! It's the perfect companion for those serene moments spent in the midst of nature. Thank you so much, Hegde sir, for the incredible hosting and making my stay so special. I can't wait to return and experience this haven of tranquility again. Highly recommended! Aniruddha P

Amazing property amidst nature with heritage architecture. Food was great with a lot of varieties. The open courtyard with the garden was my favorite part. It was a blissful experience, loved it overall. Would definitely visit again!

What's good? 1. The property is amazing. Pretty peaceful and far from the city life. 2. Open air bathroom was great. 3. Food was satisfying. 4. Lemongrass tea was worth drinking more than two cups everyday. 5. The owner/host, Jagadish was away but he was checking on us regularly. What's not good? 1. The wi-fi was not fixed and we had to make multiple calls to get it fixed. They did resolve it soon. 2. The cook mixed veg fried rice and the egg fried rice and my friend couldn't have lunch. 3. The cook was not very warm and welcoming. Of course it's not her job. The host was not at home. We had to request her to make tea every time. She never offered it on her own. It was a bit uncomfortable. 4. Everything in the house is dusty. It's a beautiful property and not been maintained at all. The water bottle which I was using, microwave, frame of the bed, windows, the swings that we used, everything in the home was dusty and not clean. I was wondering if they even changed our sheets! 5. I had booked a king room but the bed was not good. They put two single mattress on the cot and they were not good. I woke up with a back pain. The pillows were so thin and broken. 6. The open air bathroom was soo scenic but it was not functional. Such a waste of space. I had seen the tub in pictures before booking and got so excited. But nothing could be used. 7. I paid 7.3k for two people for one and a half day. For this money the space could have been cleaner, better services could have been arranged. Overall, it was a decent experience. But I wouldn't go back to this place. And, it is really not worth so much money.

We group of girls with our kids visited this property. We had wonderful experience in lakshani host Mr Jagdish uncle was very friendly with us throughout our stay he made sure we and kids were comfortable in our stay. The place give total positive vibe . Perfect for family and friends. We will definitely visit again.

It was such an amazing experience.. the moment we laid eyes on this wonderful place,we fell in love it. It is beautiful house with serene view. Mr. Hegade is wonderful host, he was very keen to help us out..from the day one we all felt like home away from home. He was serving delicious food everyday. If you want to eat authentic home made karanataki food then this is best place. We had 2kids along with us (one is 9 years old and one is 2years old) and even they offered food options for kids. if you are looking for calm and away from city chaos, this is the place .... Mr. Hegde thankyou for your wonderful hosting.we would like to come back soon.

This was the most beautiful Homestay we've been to. Nestled amidst nature, surrounded by greenary, adorned with antique & vintage relics, this place is both rustic as well as cozy. A perfect getaway for a weekend, away from the hustle & bustle of the city. Kapu & Padubidri beaches in Udupi are just 40 mins drive from here. Mr. Jagadish is the perfect host one would look for, the hospitality unparalleled & the authentic Mangalorean food served is lip smackingly delicious!

One of the most precious places that we have ever visited. Jagdish sir is truly the most hospitable, fun and friendliest persons that we have ever met. Our stay was very memorable, the home and surroundings was so breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful, the food that they prepared was so delicious and lovingly served by Jagdish sir himself- we felt like we were with our own family. We now wish we could stay for many more days and certainly will visit again and again. Our entire family had one of the most memorable and beautiful experiences ever, after such a long time. If you want to have an amazing time, taken good care of - please visit the place and thank me later :))
