Homestays in Ratnagiri

We had a delightful three-day stay at Gayatri Homestay. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, always going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and cater to our special requests. The breakfast they served was not only delicious but also had a comforting, homemade touch. They were also kind enough to help arrange rental cars for our travel needs. The beautiful ambience and the hosts' attentive hospitality made this experience truly unforgettable. We will definitely be returning and highly recommend it to others.

Best place for stay. Owner was very nice person and very very helpfully. Food quality was good. Rooms neat and clean. In room proper towels,soap, bed sheets. As it’s raining owner personally provided us hot water. Ac non Ac both rooms was comfortable. As it’s group of 20-25 people’s then it’s best place for stay.

Nice Location, Calm & Nice place to enjoy with Family. Owners of the property were really nice. Received a warm welcome

Very good experience brakefast is so good

On our recent trip to Konkan, we stayed at Vishwas Homestay for two nights. It was a very peaceful and hassel free vacation. The atmosphere was very welcoming. The owners Mr. Gaurav and Mrs Minal went above and beyond in ensuring the same. They have created a wonderful tourist ecosystem with cooperation and respect of local small businesses. The rickshaw uncles Mr. Shivalkar kaka, Mr. Mane, the custodian/caretaker Mr Bashte(or Pashte?. Sorry if I misheard the names), the wonderful cook Ms. Riya, and also Ms. Vaishnavi- huge thanks to all these people for making us feel at home! Food: You get to experience the freshest locally grown produce cooked with good quality ingredients such as in a clean environment. Shivalkar kaka went fishing and we were lucky to enjoy freshly caught crabs and fish. Ms. Vaishnavi got the freshest leafy greens from her garden. Ms Riya cleaned and cooked everything just like a home made meal without unnecessary excess oil or food color. Location: the place is located in the hilly village of Kotawde. It was straight out of a maharashtrian story - with tiny red brick houses plastered with cowdung,, small farms, a cute children's primary school, mango, coconut trees, fussfree temples, home based cashew factories. If you are looking for a beach holiday, u can reach the beaches in 10/15 mins by rickshaw or car. I would strongly recommend using rickshaws and interacting with the people. It's a wonderful experience. Birds! : I don't own a professional camera, but we saw sooo many birds! Common kingfisher, oriental magpie, yellow sunbird, orioles, indian parakeet, and the highlight of it all - the gray hornbil ( not one,not two, but a whole bunch of 6!!!) Weather: we visited in December, so the weather was pleasant with dewy mornings. I loved my time here with my parents. A note to all the future visitors: its a homestay and not a hotel. We as tourists need to enjoy our time there likewise.

We had our stay in Hornbill Homestay dated 12th & 13th Dec 2024. This was really overall awesome experience in terms of stay, food & also locality considering it's proximity with Ratnagiri station.. Would like to mention we were with our 11 month old baby and requested Dhoke Sir & Madam for necessary arrangements,they cooperated with us so well making it awesome experience. Overall great experience & would recommend this

Homestay was neat and clean and value for money. Recommended one.
