Our Favourite Hideouts Across India































































What sets us apart
We don’t just host stays. We hold spaces for stories, slowness and nourishment of your nervous system
Quiet Places, Close to What Matters
Our homes sit where the noise fades — close enough for comfort, far enough for peace. Each one is chosen with care to offer stillness without isolation.
Comfort, But With a Conscience
At Alt, comfort is never careless — it's about being gentle on the land, thoughtful with resources, and constantly aware of the impact we leave behind. Luxury doesn’t need to cost the planet.
Thoughtful Touches
No two stays — or guests — are the same. Whether it’s a quiet birthday or your favorite breakfast, we listen, remember, and curate space for what matters to you.
Spaces that think for you
From soft lighting to senior-friendly steps, we think through the small stuff so you don’t have to. Our homes are designed with every age, mood, and moment in mind
Our Values
Sustainability
We tread gently. From mud walls to millet meals — every choice we make is a quiet protest against extractive travel.
Authenticity
No set dressing here. Our homes are lived in, our hosts are real, and your stories will be too.
Guest-centric
We anticipate your “I didn’t know I needed that” moments — and we meet them with warmth, intention, and usually, a good cup of chai.
Attention to detail
Every cushion fluffed. Every bowl handpicked. Every playlist mood-matched. It’s less about perfection, more about presence.
Things to Feel, Not Just Do
These aren’t just activities—they’re memories in the making.

the experience was a delight! The serenity of the location amidst the tea gardens, the warm welcome of the caretaker Hameed, the property and the abundance of space for our pets (Beagle and Shih Tzu) to play around – all inclusive; a holiday we will vividly remember! They were constantly in touch, Hameed was ever helpful to get things comfortable for us 🙂 Appreciate it all! – Hasta La Vista – until we see again!

We finalised this homestay for our trip to Ooty and I can say that our choice was just perfect. The hosts (Aditi and Karan) were prompt to reply to our queries. Philo, the caretaker was so friendly and open to help anytime. He ensured that our stay was pleasant and constantly followed up to check if we had any concerns. This was definitely a new experience. The maid Shanthi Amma prepared some amazing breakfast for us. We just felt that we had visited our distant family when we were here. Big shout-out to Philo, Stephen, Prakash, and Shanthi Amma. You guys Rock! My son has already told me that our stay for Aby more Ooty trips will be Bagaab homestay!! Thank you! THANK YOU!! About the place, all I can say is “Mesmerizing”. You got to be there to experience it.

Travelled over weekend (group of 5). Around 10 kms from Ooty town. Perfect place to unwind and relax. The property is surrounded by tea garden till you can see on 3 sides. Rooms are clean and spacious enough to accommodate 6 people. One of the most functional and equipped kitchen I have seen in recent years in any guest house. Mr Philo is a warm welcoming host, always there to help. Definitely recommend anyone planning to visit to Ooty or nearby.

I had an amazing stay at this place. Beautiful view overlooking the tea gardens. Near and tidy place. Philo the caretaker deserves special recognition for his outstanding hospitality. He went above and beyond to ensure that both my furry companion and I felt welcomed and comfortable throughout our stay. His attentiveness and friendly demeanour truly made a difference. Also, The food was freshly prepared and yum. I suggest you to try Masala Podi Dosa with Sambhar And chutney.

we had a pleasant time staying at Bagaan. The backwards is private, secluded, and has a campfire pit. The place was clean and well equipped. We got to see Indian Gaur right beside the property. It’s located very close to Dodabetta. The weather was perfect during our stay. Would definitely come back.

It was definitely what I was looking for. A home in the hills. Respectful, hygienic staff and great in terms of responsiveness. Super friendly boys (Sunny & Puran) helped in handling the infant we were travelling with. Cook bhaiya (Pawan) cooked us delicious home food and took care of small needs of the kids. The house was clean, well maintained and peaceful. We shall surely be back soon ❤️. Thanks to Aditi and Karan for hosting us and making the stay memorable.
