Kungyam Homestay offers the panoramic view of mystic mountains on one side and small streams flowing from glacier on the other.
Kungyam, in the Rong region of Ladakh, is a village of traditional mud houses built on terraced slopes, with a gentle stream flowing through its heart. Visitors can discover ancient rock caves and the nearby 108 Stupas, a revered pilgrimage site for Buddhists across Ladakh, especially celebrated during Buddha Purnima in the first month of the lunar calendar.
The homestay in Kungyam Valley offers lovely views of the stream and valley. Warm and welcoming, the hosts treat guests like family, sharing the village’s unique charm and guiding them through its many sights.
We were lucky to stay at the Astrostays at Pangong Lake. The house is overlooking the lake. The rooms are very comfortable and the bathroom is essential but perfectly functional. The living room is in the traditional Ladakhi style. The family running the homestay (brother and two sisters) is so nice that we regretted staying only for one night. We absolutely recommend this place.
Lovely Family and Lovely Home. We stayed at Thiksey Eco Homestay for one night as the Thiksey Monastery is close by. The whole family is very welcoming. The two daughters are engineers, son is very knowledgeable, friendly and a passionate photographer besides being a Trip Host. The mother is a nice lady and cooks delicious momos and cookies. The father is very warm and down to earth. We enjoyed a very homely stay. The hosts are requested to provide a little hard bed and provide some cloth hanging strip in the bathroom. If a hand wash bottle could also be kept. The hosts are superb.
Clean place, welcoming and accommodative hosts, provide help and guidance to prehistoric sites on Indus River. Provided lunch and dinner in pure Ladhaki style that was delicious at Domkhar Eco Homestay. Would highly recommend this serene location by an absolutely pure glacier fed mountain stream. Enjoy the tall peaks for a perfect R&R.
What a lovely family, we absolutely loved our stay at Padum Eco Homestay! Everyone was so warm and welcoming, it truly felt like home. The food was delicious and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Perfect location with beautiful views. Great value for money and very family-friendly. Highly recommend!
The Sakti Eco Homestay is run by an Army veteran and his wife , helped by their daughter when she is with them.
They are very kind and hospitable, we have very tasty yet homely food made by them that was very soothing after a long trip of eating outside food. The house the surrounded by garden / vegetation and is in the middle of a farm with lovely views of the mountains around.
A memorable stay I must say !
A stay at a mountain homestay in Kyungyam is truly a heartwarming escape. The hosts were exceptionally warm and welcoming, making every guest feel like family with their attentive hospitality and genuine care. The tranquil setting, nestled deep in the mountains and far from the usual rush, adds to the charm—offering an ideal retreat to reconnect with nature and find peace away from the hustle and bustle.
Warm Hospitality
From the moment of arrival, the hosts’ warmth stands out. Every detail, from friendly conversations to thoughtful gestures, creates a sense of belonging and comfort—a true highlight of the experience.
Its a nice quiet place away from the main road. Come and stay for 2-3 days to explore the area. Local food served at the stay adds to the exprience.
