The Little House by VEO - Cozy Mountain Stay with Bonfire

We had a wonderful two-night stay at Little House, Shimla. The rooms were beautifully done and had a warm, welcoming vibe. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed, which made our stay even more comfortable. While reaching the property might seem a bit tricky at first, I highly recommend calling the POC provided by StayVista before arrival—they were very helpful in guiding us smoothly to the villa. Do keep in mind that the property is accessed via a flight of stairs. It felt a bit tedious initially, especially since I was traveling with my senior citizen parents, but they managed it happily and without any issue. Each room had a heater and the bathrooms had running hot water, which was a big plus. The seating terrace was another highlight—pretty, cozy, and perfect for soaking in the surroundings. There are restaurants nearby from where you can order food if needed, which added to the convenience. Overall, every moment we spent at Little House felt special. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful and charming stay in Shimla

Nothing

The one review here is highly misleading and people need to be aware of what they're spending their hard earned money on, so here goes- 1) The property is quite remotely located and while the walk to main areas may be scenic, it's very hard to be able to come back once out and coming back to the property at the end of the day, tired, would cost you heavily as it's in an area where public vehicles aren't allowed without a pass so you have to pay an unwarranted sum of money for taxi. 2) The stay Vista mentioned amenities like microwave, toiletries etc, but none were available. When we entered the facility there were used, empty toiletries in the bathroom, one dirty yellow towel and used tissue in the bathroom. The kitchen in the property was empty and dark and we were told that there is no kitchen. So a microwave was out of question. There was no kettle or any other amenity, we literally had to buy soap and toothbrushes from the market. 3) There was a kitchen OUTSIDE the actual home after climbing a set of stairs, which couldn't be accessed of the dead of the night as it was three girls staying at the property and the caretaker Chintu used to lock the usable kitchen and leave. We had to ASK for drinking water, it wasn't given to us and that too in limited quantity so in the night if you ran out of water and there was a storm outside (which there was) there was no way to get drinking water. 3) On our second and thankfully last night at the property, there was rain accompanied by heavy winds which caused a power outage of approximately 10 hours. We spent the whole night with drained phone batteries in pitch black darkness without even a single candle or an emergency light, let alone power backup. It was terrifying and I would never recommend this property just for this reason. 4)The property owner and everyone associated with Stay Vista were extremely uncooperative and highly rude and unresponsive about it all.

Had an amazing experience. Would love to recommend this property to my family and friends. Great service and food.
