Our story

Built by weekenders, for weekenders.

Dreamstaycation started as a spreadsheet passed between friends looking for a great villa without the usual guesswork. It's now a curated collection of Karjat's best private homes — visited, vetted and loved by our team.

What we believe

Great weekends are rare and short. So the experience of finding, booking and arriving at your villa should feel effortless — and the villa itself should be exactly what you saw online.

  • Local first

    Our team lives and works around Karjat — we know the roads, the caretakers and the seasons.

  • No surprises

    Every villa is inspected before listing, and we re-visit each one every quarter.

  • Light footprint

    We work with hosts who compost, harvest rainwater and hire locally.

  • Small on purpose

    We list fewer villas so we can care about each one.
