Euphoria Homestay-Gokarna
Euphoria Homestay – Gokarna
Gokarna is a small temple town situated on the western coast of Karnataka. It is home to one of the oldest temples – Mahabaleshwar. The town offers breathtaking landscapes and is also home to some pristine beaches. The tall palm trees, waves of the ocean gushing towards the rocks, and the evening sun melting into the ocean add a surrealistic appeal to the place. The destination is ideal for a slow relaxed holiday.
This tiled roof traditional house is located away from the noises of the city and is surrounded by the Western Ghats. The main town of Gokarna is 9 kms from here. The homestay is centrally located and is just 50 mts from NH 66; all the tourist places can be visited in a short span of time. The homestay located amidst mango plantations is a perfect mix of traditional and modern style of living.
There are 2 family rooms that can accommodate 4 people each and 2 spacious double rooms, all with an attached bathroom. The lawn outside is a great place to spend the day. There is a 100 year old traditional swing which makes the seating area all the more beautiful. It is a peaceful place with just the sounds of chirping birds and if you are lucky enough expect to see some lovely birds and peacocks in the compound.
