Beyond Luxury Resorts: Why Global Travellers Are Choosing Humble Home Stays- One such story of Arogyam Home Stay
In an era where travel is increasingly about experiences rather than extravagance, Arogyam Home Stay at Mulshi Backwaters has captured the hearts of travellers from India and abroad. Surrounded by nature’s calm rhythms, this boutique farm homestay offers a refreshing alternative to crowded luxury resorts.
Arogyam’s philosophy revolves around mindful living. Guests wake up to whistling birds and gentle water sounds instead of alarms and traffic. The property accommodates up to eight guests comfortably (+ extra beddings), ensuring privacy and a personalised experience. Visitors are encouraged to disconnect from commercial tourism and engage deeply with rural culture, traditions, and natural environment.
Food is a central experience at Arogyam. Meals are home cooked, seasonal, and prepared using organic vegetables and fruits grown through traditional manured cow dung composting methods. Guests can participate in farm-to-table activities, including harvesting produce and cooking meals on a mud stove, reviving ancient health-centric cooking practices.
The homestay is deeply rooted in cultural preservation. From promoting local sightseeing at Kailasgad Fort, Andarbhan Trail to organising village cycling trails, Arogyam ensures tourism benefits the surrounding communities. Guests also experience traditional village games, meditation sessions, and creative workshops using natural pigments derived from nature.
Arogyam’s cow conservation initiative is another highlight. With over ten adopted indigenous cows, the homestay spreads awareness about A2 Gavran milk and its nutritional benefits. Guests learn about the cow’s sacred role in Indian culture and its contribution to sustainable agriculture and human wellbeing.
Social responsibility is woven into Arogyam’s operations. Members of the Katkari forest-dwelling community are provided housing, employment, and hospitality training. This initiative has enabled economic stability for families, social learning and educational access for their children in nearby schools.
Recognised as one of the best boutique farm homestays on Airbnb with a consistent 5-star rating, Arogyam Home Stay represents a growing global shift towards conscious, eco-friendly travel rooted in authenticity, sustainability, and cultural respect.
