Bananki Homestay

People in charge of the homestay took care of us right from the moment we left Bangalore to the moment till we reached Bangalore back. They were extremely understanding for everything and even helped us with the best route to the places we visited. All in all it was stay worth remembering with the beautiful cottage and surrounding greenery .. I would sum it up by saying the best service at the most affordable rates.

This a place that truly embodies the spirit of a homestay. The hosts were pleasant and great to interact with, the pool was nice and the room was comfortable with nice decor. But where it truly shines is the food! True to the malnad region, the spread had an assortment of rice based rotis, dosas ***** with ample vegetarian and non vegetarian side dishes. Some of the stand out items for us were the jackfruit dosa, neer dosa ***** with jaggery and coconut and the akki rotis. The host is always there overseeing things and indulging in cooking herself and it truly shows! If you are looking for a place in the vicinity, I would strongly recommend Bananki!

We went as 5 couples with kids ( 10 adults + 9 kids). Enough rooms are available for us and some more guests. Awesome property. Very very well maintained and pleasing to eyes. The host Arpitha is a very warm person and treated us with great food. We had a chance to try out all the local cuisine and enjoyed. She suggested some hidden spots for us to visit. She was also kind enough to arrange for a guide for trekking in the morning to the navilukallu gudda. Location is pretty central. Most of the attractions are within 1 hr of drive. Would recommend 10/10. Special kudos to the caretaker Prashanth as well (and the cook person whom I missed to ask the name)

We were 4 families with 4 kids stayed in this homestay. Excellent swimming pool and a very well maintained Gardens around the main house. lot of scenic beauty around the property. Next to the pool view cottage's are newly built and very nicely designed. Food is very nice and served. home cooked and very tasty served with lots of care. Maintenance is not great in Cottages close to main house. can find frogs and big spiders in the bathrooms. Overall it was an awesome experience with beautiful memories.

My stay with Family at this homestay was really awesome. Home stay owner and the staff took care of us very well. We pampered ourselves with malanadu food cuisine which is itself unique and special. Overall our stay here was a memorable trip with lot of happenings. Thanks to Bananki Homestay 🙏🙏 We will comeback soon.

We liked our stay, we appreciate the efforts and care shown by owners. Food served id home cooked and very tasty served with lots of affection and care. Property is well maintained, very caring staff . This is perfect for those who are looking for good stay around Shringeri

Amazing location with delicious and sumptuous homemade food. Very friendly hosts who are very accommodating with impromptu requests. Pool is amazing and children friendly. My kids enjoyed the stay. Recommend you to stay atleast 2 days to enjoy the variety of food. Coffee is amazing too which is locally sourced form their native(chikkamagalur)

This has been a best homestay in our record of tourist destinations. Habitat surroundings made us speechless. Food was great. Rooms were neat and clean. But the spontaneous room service needs to be met like instant access to tea / coffee, etc. You get access to nearby falls, kuvempu house, zoo, river. I would definitely give a second visit if time permits.

Great place for a big family outing, they have a variety of rooms for different needs and can easily accommodate people of all age groups from toddlers to seniors. Hosts Arpitha and Charan are really nice people and are willing to go to extra lengths just to make our stay more comfortable. The food was authentic malnad style food and tasty too. Overall it was an awesome experience and I would surely recommend this place to all my friends and family :)
