Had Terrible experience...booked two separate view rooms on the Second Floor, however the day we arrived we were offered only one room for four of us on the First Floor. Bathrooms too small with no exhaust/ proper ventilation....Staffs extremely inexperienced and couldn't confirm about booking. Phones weren't responded....very ill mannered people. Please don't believe the vloggers...they just unnecessary overrate.....

My stay at Panchami Pokhri Homestay in Sittong was an unforgettable experience that went far beyond just a holiday. From the very beginning, the warmth and hospitality of the hosts made me feel instantly at home. Their genuine care and attention create an atmosphere that is hard to put into words—it truly felt like being with family in the hills. The location of the homestay is simply breathtaking. As you step outside, the mighty Kanchenjunga stands tall in front, painting a magical picture at sunrise, while the soothing tea gardens at the back add a charm that is serene and refreshing. Surrounded by such beauty, the homestay offers peace, comfort, and the kind of ambience one craves while escaping the rush of city life. Food here deserves a special mention. The hosts serve lipsmacking yet homely meals, prepared with love and authenticity. Every bite carries the warmth of a home kitchen, and the fact that you can enjoy tea or coffee as many times as you wish adds to the overall comfort and delight of the stay. What touched me the most was the special prayer offered for our safe journey before we left. That heartfelt gesture made the farewell feel like leaving a close kin, not just a place of stay. If you are looking for a place where beauty, comfort, and genuine care blend seamlessly, Panchami Pokhri Homestay is the perfect choice. It is not just a stay—it is an experience to be cherished and remembered.

The rooms are absolutely beautiful, but what I loved the most was their hospitality and the food wrapped in true Bengali tradition. There is no doubt about the natural beauty of the surroundings, and their warm and friendly behavior truly impressed me. I have a strong desire to visit again.
