The Other Home Offers Travelers who are looking for different holiday experience in India

(I-TravelNewswire.Com, May 19, 2012 ) New Delhi, India -- The idea of holiday today is not to visit a distant relative or go to any religious place only in India. The travel ideas are changing and people are going out on vacation to rediscover themselves. One of the interesting trends, which is emerging is that the travelers are open towards idea of staying in the homestay (also known as Bed & Breakfast) to get connected with the local family or vacation home at offbeat location to get more privacy and peace.

With increasing inbound tourism, the supplies of new accommodation options are increasing. The foreign travelers, mainly Foreign Independent Travelers (FITs), are open to the idea of staying with local family. The key idea is to learn the local culture, language, and taste the local food. The leading homestay destinations in India are Kerala, Rajasthan, Delhi, and Karnataka, whereas other states like Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Tamil Nadu are also catching up. Similarly, the idea of vacation rental, which is quite popular in the western countries, is also gaining popularity in India too. The key vacation rental destination in India is Goa, but other states are also following up.

The travelers can either book these properties directly with the owners or they can use online portal like The Other Home to get better deals. For the first time, users find these accommodation options really exciting and thrilling. Some feedbacks of the guest about these properties clearly show the uptrend in the marketability of these products to domestic travelers also.

“My experience with Virasat Haveli was enthralling, this place is indeed a home away from home, the ambience was so authentic and the culture maintained in the haveli was indeed rich. A must visit if you wanna experience something different” - Shweta Jashnani (Kanpur, India)

“The Nest Cottage overlooks a thickly wooded valley with the corbet jungles at the far end. You can hear the birds all the time. The 4 bedded cottages have a unique and artistic design and have a spacious wooden loft with mattresses and quilts.” - V. Vaidehi (New Delhi, India)

There is an increase in the booking of vacation homes and other non-hotel properties in India. The current trend is that homestays and vacation rentals are sold much earlier compared to traditional hotels. Owing to low inventory and lucrative pricing, non-hotel properties are becoming the first choice of the travelers. The clients are already booking vacation rental properties in Goa for December. Increase in booking of such individual properties will certainly help to promote sustainable tourism in India.
