This Homestay villa in Gethia (near Nainital) will be everything you need for a relaxing vacation away from city life.

What Makes It Awesome

Crosswinds is a homestay villa that overlooks a green valley and beautiful mountains. The villa is built and designed in a modern fashion and is the kind of tasteful luxury that leaves you wanting to . Situated 18 kilometers before Nainital, away from the frenzy of commercialisation in the main hill station, this place gives you the peaceful serenity that one craves for in their everyday lives.

The villa has six bedrooms and requires a minimum booking of three rooms for the stay, as the owners of the villa only rent out the property to one group at a time. Their motive is to let people enjoy their holiday with their friends in privacy, without being disturbed.

The villa has a beautiful lawn and a wooden deck where you can sit and enjoy the view over your morning tea, a well-curated library, and even a games area for kids. The property is taken care of by an extremely hospitable staff, who are happy to prepare all kinds of meals and can even do market runs for you. The covered terrace is the perfect spot to enjoy a rainy day with some chai and pakoras.

Locations like Nainital, Bhimtal, Almora, and Ranikhet are within an easily motor-able distance, where you will find plenty of activities and experiences to go for.

What Could Be Better

Those of you who like your vacations to be in more happening and lively areas might be disappointed, since the villa is situated away from the commercialised area of the hill.

Pro-Tip

The chef does a mean barbecue, and the staff will be more than happy to set it up for you for dinner during your stay.
