The booking did not include breakfast but the family toked their time and cooked for us since we were hungry and the food we order was going to take very long, the food was delicious and made with care and kindness. The owner waiter for our arrival awake past midnight and welcome us with a friendly smile and patience. I will happily book again this place any time I go back to Bodhgaya, the super convenient location at a walking distance from Bodhi Tree and the exceptional hospitality and care that made our stay truly enjoyable and memorable makes this decision easy to make

What an incredible place, run by the kindest owners you could ever meet! The property is spotless and perfectly located in the center of everything. When my friend fell seriously ill, they went above and beyond to help — arranging an ambulance, checking in constantly, and even picking me up after a long, exhausting day at the hospital. I’m truly grateful for their care and compassion. Highly recommended!

My stay at Marina Homestay was one of my highlights of my India trip and I can highly recommend this stay to any foreigner looking for a clean and budget friendly stay. The room was spacious, clean, and had everything I needed. The best part was the helpfulness and friendliness of the staff. They helped me organise a complicated transportation to another city, took me to the city of Bodh Gaya with a motorbike and even invited me for breakfast and dinner. They also invited me to visit a local school which was a very cool experience.

It was perfect and very quite to stayed there before going to the 10 days of Vipassana meditation that was quite close. The family was very kind, they let me choose the room that was very nice, spacious and clean with a lovely balcony. There was a little kitchen to could use and they kindly refill my bottle in filtered water. It was fantastic to could use have use a washing machine and hanging the clothes in the lovely big terrace upstairs. I would have loved to come back there after Vipassana but I was invited to stay in a monastery so I changed my plan.

If you want to experience the local culture while supporting a good cause, this is the place to do so! We felt very welcome in the family and as we visited during the festival we got taken along to all the ceremonies the festival entails. This was a truly unique experience which we are very happy to have been a part of. Furthermore the guesthouse is next to the school it supports so you can easily pay a visit there too. The place is just outside of town, so this gives some peace from the busy city. But it can be reached easily by tuktuk (although you might need to help a bit with the navigation) from the temple area of bodh gaya. The guesthouse serves a simple but delicious breakfast and dinner as well as an assortment of hot drinks. Beds are basic but comfortable, so is the shower with reliable hot water. The guesthouse can also arrange other touristic excursions or transportation with a good driver and comfortable car. They are however not the cheapest option in this category.

Favourite place to stay in Bodh Gaya. Peaceful and away from the noise and crowd. On a local rikshaw for 10-20 rupees, you can get from here to the Mahabodhi Temple. Or you can walk 20-30 minutes. Delicious home food for a good price.

Probably our best stay in all of India! We arrived in Gaya on the train after 3am. Sumit the owner waited for us to arrive and helped us navigate with our tuk tuk driver from the station. The location is walking distance to restaurants and temples. Room was.perfectly clean, and the AC was great! I would recommend for single travelers or couples. Wonderful and welcoming family that owns the homestay. Mahalo for our stay Trevor and Brittany- Honolulu, Hawaii

The homestay was situated near Mahabodhi Bihar, just a short walk from the Bihar and other eateries. I chose this place because they offered an early morning checkin. Sunita aunty was very warm with us. The room and bed linens were clean, and the AC worked fine. We were provided with necessary amenities such as tissues, soaps, glasses, and even mosquito nets. My mom really enjoyed the experience.

This was a really friendly little homestay and excellent value for money. It's only a few minutes walk from various places to eat, and about 10-15 mins walk from the temples around town.
