⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful stay at Bastha Homestay, Sittong. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by their two lovely dogs, Kalu and Bhunu, who instantly made us feel at home. ❤️🐶 The biggest attraction for us was the natural waterfall—it was absolutely beautiful and made our stay even more special. The peaceful surroundings, greenery, fresh air, and natural beauty of the place were truly refreshing. The food, hospitality, cleanliness, and overall environment were all excellent. Everything was arranged with so much warmth and care that we felt very comfortable throughout our stay. If you are someone who loves nature, peace, and a quiet escape from busy city life, Bastha Homestay is definitely a place you should visit. Highly recommended! 🌿🏔️❤️ We will surely love to come back again. 😊

Just returned from our 2 days stay at Bastha homestay, and truly, its a fantastic experience. All credit to the owner for maintaining a beautiful property, covered with lush green plants and flowers. And best part? It has its own river and waterfall, just beside the property. Owner is very much friendly, took care of our every needs, and helped us when needed some medical help. Make sure you book car for pick up, drop, and sightseeing from this property, we did it has been a great experience. Thank you Bastha Homestay for our amazing experience.

Our Stay on 12th October 2025 We visited this homestay as two families, and from the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a warm and heartfelt welcome. The staff were incredibly polite, helpful, and always smiling — making us feel right at home. The food was absolutely delicious — every meal was freshly prepared and full of authentic flavors. One of the best parts of our stay was the serene location — the homestay sits right on the bank of a river, and the soothing sound of flowing water could be heard throughout the day and night. Overall, it was a peaceful and memorable stay — perfect for anyone looking to relax amidst nature and great hospitality. Highly recommended!

চা জল খাবার প্রধান মিল প্রতিটি অত্যন্ত নিম্নমানের ও অস্বাস্থ্যকর। মনে হল যে কুক থেকে শুরু করে মালিক পর্যন্ত অহংকার এ ভর্তি।শুধু টাকাটাই চেনে। অথিতি দের পরিষেবার কথা ভাবেই না। খাবার দাবার পরিমাণে কম, হ্যান্ডওয়াশ, গরম জল,রাস্তার আলো এগুলোর কোনো ব্যবস্থা নেই। খুব খারাপ অভিজ্ঞতা।
