It's only after I started travelling solo and with my friends that I realised how your accommodation can really make a difference to your vacation. A bit of internet research led me to believe that one doesn't need to shell out a lot in order to stay at an excellent property. I have, thus, compiled a list of gorgeous homestays in India at some of the most popular locations, that would make you ditch those expensive, 5-star resorts.
These homestays might not have facilities like Jacuzzis, spas and high-end dining options but they all are designed in an innovative manner and provide a unique experience.
