I had an exceptional stay at Shoonya! I discovered this place very randomly on instagram and it immediately piqued my curiosity. When I went there, what I found was an incredibly warm, picturesque homestay with all amenities- they have really made the effort to ensure that even the little things are taken care of. I especially liked their curated treks and experiences that come along with the stay along with their hospitable staff. Would highly recommend.

We had such a lovely stay at Shoonya. The views of Nanda Devi and Trishul are simply spectacular, the rooms are cosy and comfortable, the food is delicious, and the hosts are wonderful. Communication was great from start to finish, which made the whole experience even smoother. And of course, a special mention to Apple, the sweetest four-legged host! There’s something so special about the silence, the mountains, and the unhurried pace of life here. It’s the kind of place where you truly disconnect from the world and reconnect with yourself. I left feeling refreshed and already wanting to come back. I would love to make this a yearly ritual.

A beautiful and peaceful place to stay. The resort is thoughtfully designed, with attention to the little details. We stayed in the attic, and the room was absolutely beautiful. The service was prompt, and the hosts were warm and welcoming. Overall, a lovely experience. Would definitely recommend!

There are places that are beautiful, and then there are places that have clearly been created with a lot of thought and heart. Shoonya is definitely the latter. What I loved most is how thoughtfully the place has been put together. You notice the little things everywhere. It has all the modern amenities you could want, but somehow still retains the rawness and charm of the mountains. We stayed at the Mrida Twin, and the view from the balcony is something else. The Himalayas in the distance, the village and farms below, people going about their day, and the sun playing across the landscape. It’s the kind of view you can just sit with and take in. The food was delicious yet wonderfully homely. Loved the barbecue and pretty much everything we tried from the menu. The staff was absolutely lovely - warm, attentive and always happy to help. Every little request was taken care of with a smile. Shoonya is one of those places where you actually slow down and enjoy being there. Left with a very happy heart. Would definitely come back.

It was my birthday trip and I was travelling with my family which has four 58years+ adults, my two years old daughter and my wife. The property is clean, elegant and aesthetic. Each corner has been paid great attention to detail. We drank ginger lemon tea on the skydeck looking at the majestic mountains and clouds forming and dissolving each passing second, we talked in the cozy listening room where my wife sat on the floating jhula, we had crazy fun filled karaoke nights at the main room, and I can go on and on. The food is sumptuous beyond words. Each item gets a five star from us. You must try their aate ka halwa. Apple and kafal are such cute dogs. Apple accompanied us on every hike, she also saw us off till the time we got seated in the cab. RK and Mahima are great hosts and we wish them great success. We will come again, soon.

Our stay at Shoonya was absolute perfection. The property is thoughtfully designed, offering a serene, peaceful atmosphere that’s ideal for unwinding in the mountains. A special thanks to RK and Mahima, who took care of every detail—having everything on hand, from toiletries to basic medicines, made our trip completely hassle-free. The food was undoubtedly the highlight of our stay. Bhawan bhaiya served every meal fresh and delicious that felt comforting and wonderfully homemade. We couldn't have asked for a better getaway.

Shoonya | शून्य

A slow mountain stay for those seeking a soft pause
Great for groups
📍Mukteshwar, Uttarakhand

Four Octobers of imagining, building, figuring things out, and slowly bringing Shoonya to life. 🌿

What began as an experiment alongside our 9-to-5s has grown into a little world of its own.

Today, we finally get to slow down a little, enjoy the spaces we’ve created, and share more of what Shoonya means to us.

And if there’s one thing we’ve learnt, it’s that Shoonya will always be a work in progress. There’s always something new to grow, create, or dream up. ❤️🏔️

Every year, we decide we’re going to grow our own vegetables.

Every year, the garden reminds us who’s really in charge. 

We’ve got planting timelines wrong. Chosen the wrong veggies. Misread the weather. Overestimated our gardening abilities. And occasionally watched a perfectly healthy-looking plant decide it had other plans.

But there have been wins too.

This year, we’ve planted a little mix of vegetables and herbs that we’re quite proud of — and are currently checking on far more often than necessary. 

We’re still figuring out what grows, when it grows and what the mountain will actually allow us to grow.

And honestly, hats off to those who do this consistently — growing what the land gives them and then building their menus around it. That takes some serious patience (and probably a lot less overthinking than us).

For now, we’ll celebrate our little patch of green.

People have been saying the loveliest things… 🥹

A little love letter to Shoonya, from the people who make it all worthwhile. The weekend wanderers, the families and friends who came together, the last-minute escape artists, and those who simply needed a few days away from the noise of everyday life.

There’s something special about hearing that a place we’ve built with so much love has become a memory you’ll carry with you long after you’ve left the mountains.

Thank you for choosing Shoonya, for trusting us with your time away, and for taking a moment to share your experiences with us. It means more to our little team than words can say.

Here’s to more meaningful getaways, warm-hearted people, and stories that stay with us long after the journey home. 💛
