Devi Villa

We checked various websites online and were searching for a homestay. After speaking with the owner of Devi Villa, we finalized it. The main reason was the information provided by the owner. We selected it based on the photos and the conversation. For us, being close to a prime location was important, and Devi Villa is in a prime location, just near Chandpole, right before the Amrai Ghat bridge starts. We stayed for 3 nights and 4 days. Initially, we liked our room; it was clean, with fresh bedsheets, a clean cupboard, and a bathroom. The view from the gallery was also fantastic. We hadn't eaten much on the train, so we were quite hungry. Aunty (the owner's wife) made us hot parathas to eat. We were so impressed by the taste that we decided to have breakfast at home every day. When we asked her where to find dal bati, she said she would make it today and asked if we would like to have it. We immediately said yes. After returning from our outing, we had dal bati... oh, what a taste! From then on, we had dinner and breakfast there for all 4 days. Where else can you get such authentic Rajasthani food as in a Rajasthani home? And it was homemade, with a clean kitchen, hygienic, and fresh. I have no regrets that we didn't go to a lakeside restaurant for dinner even once; the food was that tasty. Aunty and Uncle are such friendly people that we didn't even realize how 4 days passed just talking to them, and we got attached. This was the first homestay where we felt sad at night thinking about leaving. Uncle, by profession, was a guide for foreigners. We had the unique experience of seeing Kumbhalgarh with him. He is very energetic and sweet. He accompanied us on a one-day trip to Kumbhalgarh, Shreenathji, Eklingaji, and Haldighati. He suggested local spots and guided us, making the spots he suggested feel like heaven. Because of these two, our Udaipur trip became memorable. We will definitely recommend it to our friends and family, and if we return, we will preferably stay here again..
