Castaway - Offbeat Nature Cabin — Hotel in Great Himalayan Range

I think giving 5 star will be still too less for the cast of castaway that is chethan and hanin.. I stayed for a period of almost 40+ days as i decided to work from home ove there. i was a bit worried at first due to the network concerns but once I reached this beautiful property i was amazed..it is situated far away from the crowded city of manali and stop a beautiful hillock . I was able to work peacefully without any power interruptions . The hosts are great dudes and during my entire stay I felt as if i was staying at a home away from home.They take care of entire thing from food , rooms and cleanliness is top notch .The rooms are wooden and hence add an extra layer of calm and cleanliness . This property is definitely a must for those seeking peace and tranquility and you will be amazed at the views that you can witness just by walking around the property. It's truly a paradise on earth in manali .. Thanking the hosts once again and for sure will be my next spot during...

This place is pure magic. Nestled among tall trees with birds chirping all around, it feels like stepping into a peaceful, green sanctuary. Add to that the company of a gentle dog and a curious cat, and you have the perfect atmosphere for relaxation and joy.

But what truly makes this place special is Chethan — the host, the soul of the property.

His warmth and hospitality make you feel instantly at home — so much so that I genuinely didn’t want to leave.

This is not just a stay — it’s an experience. One that touches your heart, nourishes your soul, and leaves you longing to return. I wish everyone could feel what it’s like to be here. It truly is the best property I’ve...

True to it's name, it's a space which allows one to castaway from the hustle'n' bustle & just relax in the lap of nature and bask in the warmth of the mountain sun as well as the host's cooking, which is on a league of it's own, and that's an understatement (just come and eat here, you'll know). Our host, Chetan bhaiya and family, which included his mother, their 🐶 Casper and 😺 Charlie, and an occasional noma Poorvi di (she's awesome if you get to meet her!) and Chetan bhaiya himself, provided more than just great service, they provided us with a home to stay. Aaaaand the view.... It's simply the best! It goes perfectly with the peaceful vibe the place offers. For all who don't mind hiking half an hour uphill through dense canopy and mountain vegetation, come and try the "appam" here. Trust me, it's totally...
