Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Dhakela

Everything was brilliant, from the guided hikes to the help to sort bus travel and more. On the hikes my guide Mahendra went way above what any of the others did to try and spot wildlife but in a eco friendly way. The owner and his wife were very kind and treated me like part of the family. To visit here also take the bus from Kathmandu, it’s an adventure in itself.

I stayed at this accommodation a couple of nights. Pappu and his family were wonderful hosts, they were very attentive and cooked fresh, organic and delicious food! Pappu is also a very special guide: he could spot multiple animals that my eye couldn't see at first, among which even a tiger!!! But also several species of deer (swamp deer 😍), otters, and paradise flycatchers were an amazing sighting and we were lucky enough even to see a rhino! I miss the wonders of Bardiya... Thank you Pappu dai for your hospitality and guidance!!

Best stay of my trip so far! The family work really hard to make you feel like home, and you do. You come as a guest and leave as a member of the family. Everything is perfect there, the room is nice and big, large and comfortable bed, big bathroom with hot shower, the homestay is in a little village which is so quiet and peaceful. It's surrounded by only fields. They have a nice garden where you can stay and read, have some rest, relax. Nice camp fire in the evening. The dad, Basu, is an environment teacher in the public school nearby, he also volunteers in many organizations to help protect the nature, the wild life, he helps people and do a very important social work. Sarita, the mom, is always smiling, laughing, makes sure that you feel good and her kitchen is reeeally good! They provide breakfast, lunch and dinner and everyday the food is different and delicious. Jyoti works for the family, she is so lovely, she would help with anything, always smiling and makes sure you're OK. We spent a lot of time with the son, Shardul, he's such a really nice and funny guy. He would arrange everything you need, helps you with your travel plans, bus, tuktuk, tells you about his country's traditions, culture. We spent 3 amazing days in the jungle with him and parkase, another guide, they work really hard to make sure you will see the wild life. We saw many animals, Rino, crocodile, éléphants, tiger and even the girl I was with saw a bear which is so rare. We had a lot of good talks with him and shared memorable moments. The family owns also a tree house in the jungle, where you can spend the night. It is an amazing place near the village. The must of the must for me, was the trek they arranged in the Bardia National Park hills nearby. It is not a well known trek in Nepal because everyone goes to the highest mountains but it really was the best experience ever for me. We walked 4 days and stayed in the hills 3 nights.

Really recommend the place, the experience was amazing. The accommodation is so fun. I went on safari tours with the team. So professional!

Everything was just more than what we expected when we first came here. Nanu has treated us as we were part of his family. He was invested in everything : making us comfy, showing us animals during the safari, organizing transports etc… this place is a great value for your money + a real life time experience in a Wonderful family. Kali cooks the best Dal Bhat, Ayush & Arush are the 2 funny boys that will always make you laugh. We also have been lucky enough to celebrate Tihar festival with them in their family and that was an incredible experience.

**My recent trip to Nepal** I had the pleasure of staying at Bardiya Eco Safari Homestay in Bardiya, and it was an exceptional experience. As a Nepali residing in Switzerland, this homestay offered me a warm and welcoming atmosphere that felt like home.The hospitality was truly remarkable; the hosts were kind and attentive, ensuring that every need was met. I was particularly impressed by the local cultural food, which featured fresh vegetables from their own garden—each meal was a delightful experience.Mukti, our guide, shared his extensive knowledge about the local flora and fauna, making our jungle excursions unforgettable. The clean rooms and the stunning garden filled with vibrant flowers were additional highlights of my stay.This homestay is perfect for all visitors, especially wildlife enthusiasts, offering a unique blend of comfort and nature. I highly recommend Bardiya Eco Safari Homestay for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty and culture of Nepal.

Great place near the river, quiet, beautiful nature. Tasty food and Krishna helped me a lot to organize all kind of things. Bardia is still with little tourism, amazing wildlife and traditional villages straight out of the Jungle Book movie . I went by bicycle and many people greet you.

Everything , the hole family was very warm and welcoming from day 1 until i left, stayed here 3 weeks and did some trips into the djungel, saw many tigers, leopards, elephants really really good for wildlife! Would deffently stay here again and the hugh garden is so amazing!! With alot of birds fruits, veggies etc.

We had an amazing 5 days at Jungle base camp. Hukum could not do enough to make your our stay special. The enthusiasm from him and the rest of the Bardia team was incredible. Great value for money would highly recommend.

Great stay at Mr B's place ! Super easy to organize safaris with the staff. Comfortable rooms and very tasty food, 100% satisfied, definitely recommend and would come back for sure !
