Monthly Rentals in Kumarwarti

Our stay at Tharu Community lodge was super nice! The rooms are designed comfortably and beautifully with every detail thought of. The whole space is really beautifully built and designed and great for those looking for a group stay or simply peaceful, private stay. We did not partake in the activities offered but I think they would be great for a large group traveling together or people without significant travel experience within Nepal. Plus the lodge has food and experiences available. The whole place feels designed to comfort foreigners particularly those needing a bit of luxury which would not normally be found in rural Nepal. Comfortable beds, full amenities, and more. A bit on the luxury side for me personally but I’ve lived in Nepal for 5 years. The lodge employs locals and aims to offer good employment opportunities to locals. It feels a bit removed from the local village but we did take our motorbike to the riverside where we enjoyed beautiful walk and sunset watch, including dinner at a nearby restaurant.

We had a fantastic time at this homestay. Getting there was a little tricky because the house wasn't located where the airbnb map said it would be. We were able to work this out because our taxi driver called Ramakanta for location details, but I would recommend confirming location while you still have wifi or just having Ramakanta pick you up. The house was architecturally stunning, beautifully decorated, and relaxing. We had the best afternoon naps. Ramakanta and his wife were wonderful hosts, constantly making us feel welcomed and making sure we were fed. Ramakanta is someone who is proud of his family and his village. The feeling of positivity was infectious throughout the whole stay. I definitely recommend this location if you are looking to escape the tourist heavy areas and understand Nepali farm life (but while being catered to and with hot showers). Our jungle walks with Ramakanta were the highlight of our whole trip. I personally was looking for a way to experience Chitwan without contributing to any unethical treatment of animals. Ramakanta offered us real and raw exposure to Chitwan. Overall fantastic stay and a perfect addition to our otherwise "on the grid" Nepal vacation.
