Not a thing

This location is perfect for a cozy retreat to refresh, rewind and relax. I felt very happy and relaxed spending time with the owners of the property, Shruti and Rahul. They are friendly and provided for all my requirements. It was creatively invigorating spending my week here. The food was also quite good and there are good spots for trekking and travel nearby as well. The pets of the owners, Shibui and Zorro were great emotional support and they are very loving in nature.

My experience here was great. There aren't many things one can find wrong here.

Everything was good and up to the mark, the view from the property, the facilities. The taste of the food is too good and the behaviour of the host is phenomenal and they have 2 dogs one Zoro and Shibui they are super cute and friendly to guests. One of the best properties and host I ever seen 😄

Everything. Start from the Rooms, ambience, food and most importantly the host. All were above my expectations. I went there with my family and friends and all loved the place as well as the hospitality extended to us. And this review wouldn't be completed without mentioning the Shibui (the pet dog) who is friendly enough to play with. The rooms are designed beautifully, all rooms have windows and proper sunlight. We even took pictures of ourselves in rooms. The place is amazing and peaceful, surrounded by nature. We met a few locals there, and the experience interacting with them was wholesome, which we couldn't find in our concrete cities.

There was nothing as such we didn't like. This place is amazing.

The most beautiful location in still not destroyed nature/village by mass tourism . The hosts are interesting, wellspoken and easygoing . The house is nicely decorated and painted surrounded by multicoloured roses. Views are breathtaking. It suits mainly to younger/fit visitors since you have to climb very steep staircases up&down the common and living area . Preserving this gem in the mountains and keeping it free of garbage, paper and plastics is of ultimate importance. Keep Hallani clean.

Food is a bit poor.

Lovely view & remote. Cozy and comfortable!

Ikigai was surrounded with greenery and amazing people. We loved every bit of the stay. We were lucky to make some amazing friends there. We weren't actually expecting to see snow in September but hosts Shruthi and Rahul made it possible for us. It was magical. We are definitely coming back next year. Can't wait to see Sheebu again.
