    I had an absolutely perfect stay here. I came here after a relatively great trip through Kalimpong and Gangtok but when I reached Mayal Lyang, I feel like vacation actually began. We all go on trips hoping to shed some of the exhaustion and anxiety of work but often we end up needing a vacation from the vacation. My stay at Mayal Lyanng felt like being able to take a breath after a very long time.

    Before you think I’m speaking in hyperboles let me assure you nothing over the top happened. It was simply a great cozy room in a beautiful place with a loving welcoming family taking care of you and some of the most delicious an nourishing food you will find in India.

    They’ve won awards, foreign royalty has stayed there but somehow my stay was still the perfect balance between living authentically as the local families do while also having your basic needs taken care of.

    I spent the majority of my stay reading with a view of the mountains and cloud floating outside my window. I took a super relaxing trek down to the river but mostly I just took the time to recharge. Samsay maam encouraged me to do more like visit the local hot springs and temples but I was content to just hang out.

    Samsay maam was a lovely host and her cooking really is some of the best I’ve ever had. She is very accommodating to all guest’s dietary restriction and went out of her way to make me dishes when she found out how much I enjoyed North Eastern cuisine. Most of the food and meat came from their garden or from the local area.

    I am absolutely shocked how cheap the rates were given that 3 meals are included. I got to the location from Gangtok via shared tax. It does take time to get to Dzongu but this was truly the highlight of my trip in Sikkim and I cannot wait to visit again. you truly do feel like a guest in someone’s home rather than just a customer buying an experience. Do yourself a favor and book a trip today.
