Monthly Rentals in Dhikur Pokhari

I don’t have enough words to describe my experience at the Pipal Tree, It was exactly as shown in the pictures and worth every penny (which me and my sibling repeated 100 times) Our host Thapa Family were AMAZING. Very responsive, kind and friendly!! I’ve stayed at 100 airbnbs and this one checked all the boxes. I may have left but my heart remains there. Peaceful, beautiful views and the hospitality made this the best experience yet!! A HUGE shoutout to Anil dai for being so kind and sweet and always smiling!! I am definitely coming back❤️❤️❤️

This homestay was a perfect fit for me: I loved chatting with different tourists from all over the world at communal meals, I loved to help the owners and get my hands dirty, and mostly, I enjoyed learning and practicing the Nepali language. We had a welcoming party from the villagers where we learned to dance. What a treat! Everyone was so welcoming. A special thanks to Susmita for her translating services! The food was AMAZING! This place is NOT for someone who wants to be pampered. The goal is to immerse yourself in the culture and to participate with the chores as much as you can. I stayed for 2 nights and that was the perfect amount of time for my liking .

I had the best, most relaxing, time at Mahakuruna! I was doing a mix of working, hiking, relaxation. The place has a very nice construction, is tastefully decorated, and has nice additions like a wood fire and bath for if it gets a bit chilly. The view from the front door is also spectacular. Honestly, something that made the trip super simple and really elevated it was using Arun there (probably the only airbnb that comes with a chef 😆). All of the meals he cooked were both very healthy and delicious. I enjoyed every one. Walking down into the valley via all the villages was great. I would also recommend the hike up to Pitam Deurali that takes about 4hrs round trip. Add on Australian base camp too if you want to hike a bit longer, but be sure to take the route avoiding Pothana though, as there is a permit checkpoint there. I'm by no means advocating to skip getting a permit - if you wish to hike further afield, definitely get one! (from KTM or Pokhara in advance)

Ekraj and his family were outstanding hosts for my eight-week stay! I felt right at home and enjoyed the peaceful neighbourhood right away. All of the benefits of close proximity to lakeside amenities but thankfully tucked away in a very peaceful setting. For those wishing to work, the internet/wifi connection was very steady and even connected to the back-up power source in case of very infrequent power loss. There is a fantastic gym nearby for those hoping to maintain fitness, and the food options are plentiful. Highly recommend Ekraj's place for anyone looking for peace, quiet, and kindness in Pokhara!
