Alojamientos vacacionales en Purbasthali

This is a hidden gem of a place. The owners of this place double it as home-stay, I chose the word home-stay deliberately and thanks a ton for that. The property has Old World written all over it. The staffs were extremely warm and earnest. The food homely, and the area terracota charming. Personally it took me back to my childhood memories of my dadu-bari (not a 375 years zamindar house, but the essence of this place was spot-on same with big airy rooms, thakur-dalaan and a hint of minimalism). What stood out was the attached balcony/terrace to our room which opens under a mango tree overlooking a massive water body surrounded by a thicket And one might spot an owl-couple as well, but I will leave that for fellow enthu-cutlets to find out when they visit.

Vaasudev’s studio apartment airBnB was perfect. Clean, and fully set up with kitchen (including gas cooktop, sink, and cooking utensils), two ceiling fans, mosquito netting on all doors and windows, and good bathroom facilities (western toilet and proper shower). Drinking water was easily available. Vaasudev was quick to respond to communication, and very friendly and reasonable. The accommodation was easy to find, and it was tidy and beautifully decorated. Perfect for devotees or visitors to Mayapur, with pictures of Prabhupada and Pancha Tattva in the kitchen and a set of Krishna bowls. Super close (a short walk away) from many cafes and restaurants, as well as the ISKCON campus. Overall really enjoyed our stay!
