The Shoonya Circle

What you give to Shoonya, finds its way back to you.

A quiet loyalty circle for those who return — to spend on your next visit.

How it works

A circle, not a transaction

No fine print to decode — 1 point always equals ₹1. Here’s exactly how points come to you, and exactly how they leave.

Earn — every visit, in more ways than one

5% back

On every stay

Whether you book directly with us or through a platform, 5% of what you pay comes back to you as points.

Calculated after GST and OTA commission, where applicable.

Shared pool

Travelling as a group?

The 5% earned on the stay is one shared pool. Just share the names and number at check-out, and we’ll split it equally.

If nothing’s mentioned at check-out, the full amount goes to whoever made the booking.

Up to 600 pts

Sharing on Instagram

50 pts for 4+ tagged stories, 250 for a collab post, 300 for a collab reel about your stay — all within a month of checkout, capped at 600 pts per stay.

Follow @into.the.shoonya. Points require granting us the right to reshare your content on our stories and use it in paid promotions.

Screenshot of all reviews & Instagram posts required — points credited only once we’ve confirmed it’s published on our profile.

Name & phone number of point earners required at checkout.

Points from a review or an Instagram post go to the person who wrote or posted it — not shared with the rest of your group.

Every review helps us grow, so honest is always welcome, whatever the rating.

See current peak dates

Points used on a visit don’t count toward what you earn on that same visit — only the amount you actually pay earns fresh points.

Validity — how long your points stay yours

Stay, review & Instagram points

1 year + 30 days

Valid for a year from your last checkout, plus a 30-day grace period. Visit again within that window, and your points carry forward.

Referral points

1 year

Valid for a year from the checkout date of the friend you referred — independent of your own visits, so it runs on its own clock.

Points are personal to you — tied to your own Circle Code, and can’t be gifted, sold, or moved to anyone else’s account, under any circumstance.

Good to know

A few questions, answered

Where do I find my Circle Code?

Your Circle Code is shared with you after your first stay — at check-out, or in your confirmation email. If you can’t find it, just write to us at namaste@intotheshoonya.com.

Do my points expire?

Stay, review, and Instagram points stay active as long as you visit Shoonya at least once every 12 months (with a 30-day grace window) — if a year passes without a visit, that balance resets. Referral points run on their own clock: 1 year from the checkout date of the friend you referred, regardless of your own visits.

Can I split points across a group booking?

Yes — let us know at check-in if you’d like the earned points split equally among your group, instead of going entirely to the person who booked.

How do referrals work?

Share your unique Circle Code with a friend. Once they complete a stay, 500 points land in your account — valid for a year from your friend’s checkout date, regardless of when you yourself visit next.
