Navek La and our hosts Brig and Mrs JS Sandhu were by far the highlight of our visit to India. The accommodation was outstanding and ideally situated to explore Dharamsala, McLeod Ganj and the local area including trekking on the Triund Pass. My father and I (in our 40's and 60's) travelled to India for a 9 day sightseeing and... More

This was everything we had hoped for when we chose a "homestay". The location is great - convenient not only for seeing the sights, but also for walking out to take in the scenery and sunsets. Our room was charming, with its own private balcony and four poster bed. The gardens are lovely and you can clamber down to a... More

Navek La ia a home stay in Dharamshala. Your hosts are a retired Brigadier, his wife and family. The location is stunning with views of the Himalayas. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble and the hospitality was second to none. I had a marvellous stay and would recommend it to anyone.

This is a great place to stay. We were on a holiday booked through Groupon and were a little apprehensive to what we had booked, but this was one of our best holidays, and we've had quite a few to many parts of the world. The Sandhu family made us so welcome, great food and company. A lovely peaceful place... More

We chose Navek-La based on TripAdvisor ratings. There weren't that many but I am glad I did. I can never forget the warmth the entire family exuded and during our stay we felt like part of the family. The rooms are cozily done with nice sitting areas. Everything is nice and clean. There is a garden where you can just... More

We have just returned from our trip to Dharamshala, where we stayed at Navek-La with Brigd Sandhu and his family. We would like to thank the Sandhu Family for making our trip not only comfortable, enjoyable and entertaining, but for all the warmth and care that they extended to each one of us at their beautiful home. Brigd Sandhu helped... More

Perfect choice if you are staying in Dharamshala. The homestay is within easy distance from all the highlights and activities. We went on a mountain trek, visited the Dalali Lama's summer house and some fascinating highlights. Coming back to Navek La at the end of a day of excursions was like coming back home. It was also awesome to wake... More

I am still on tour in India but could not wait to get back home to post this review. We have had the most amazing time during our stay at Navek La where my husband Josh and I spent 4 nights. I think it was the best four days of our whole trip and I only wish I had reserved... More
