Miyawaki Magic Homestay, Wargal-Secunderabad

Miyawaki Magic Homestay-Wargal

Spread across 11 acres of forests and gardens in Wargal, this award winning eco-homestay is just 54kms from Hyderabad city in Telangana. The estate is developed by the host with great care to create a biodiverse ecosystem on once rocky and barren land. Green plan was spearheaded by planting Miyawaki forests across an acre, followed by a fruit orchard, avenue trees, shade bearing and perimeter trees, a food forest and various curated gardens. This is a healthy eco friendly retreat, perfect for your weekend escape to nature as well as for those memorable family vacations.

There is a cluster of 10 rooms set amidst a man-made forest and mini lake. The rooms are at the ground level or with easy access of a few steps; there are rooms with wheelchair access as well. The homestay offers urban comforts in a rural setting with sprawling landscapes, forest, water bodies, green architecture and several other sustainable initiatives. Rooms are fitted to 5 star standards of comfort sans air conditioning as it is an eco space. Relax by the pool, chill in your room, take in the sights of the neighborhood from atop the lighthouse, play a board game in the game room, shoot some hoops at the basketball court- there’s plenty to do as you relax away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

If you are a fan of eco friendly structures, you will appreciate this place even more, as you admire all the structures built here using mostly soil from the same place, the Miyawaki forest around the periphery of the property, the rain harvesting pond which channels all the water from downpours, and several wonderfully repurposed everyday items which, instead of ending up in the scrap heap, are enjoying a second life as decorative items.
