⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Testimonials & Reviews for Alok Sharma

If you come to Bangalore and you don't stay with Alok...

If you come to Bangalore and you don't stay with Alok, then you miss a huge part of what Bangalore is about: People from all walks of life and from all over the world, sitting in the cool afternoon breeze and warm sun exchanging stories and songs. I had a fantastic time at Alok's place. He and Ronak were great company and nothing was too hard, or too strange, a request for them :) They attract the most wonderful people to their co-living houses, so there is always someone to share a beautiful home cooked meal with, or simply share a wine and an idea or two out on the front porch. If you need to retreat as well then there is plenty of room for you to find a cosy corner of the house to settle into a good book and the rooms are spacious and quiet too, so you can shut out the world when you need to rest up. The staff of the house are friendly and welcoming and can help you with anything you need. I'll be back in no time at all!

What a beautiful experience!

What a beautiful experience! We saw the beautiful pictures posted by Alok and were floored. Despite the last minute booking, Alok was in touch with us and was accommodating about our arrival since we were delayed. As soon as we reached,Ronak, the co host with his assistants Ram and Akhilesh were there to greet us with home cooked food and a beautiful quaint house. It was sparkling clean- had the character of a painting with gardens and it's quirky furniture. The place immediately puts you at ease with its various colours, nooks and comfortable spaces. The food was great and Ram and Akhilesh were quick to accommodate all our needs. Ronak and Alok made us feel at home with their easy manner, engaging conversation and quick wit. Our Labrador found a beautiful playmate in the feisty retriever Maaya and all arrangements were made for his comfort without any complaint. We felt like we were staying with long lost friends in a gorgeous home that we felt that we and our dog has always known. A truly Superhost experience!

One of the best Airbnb experiences

Staying at Alok's places was hands down one of the best Airbnb experiences I have had in India. Alok, Ronak and the team are thoughtful, always available in case you need anything and go out of the way to make sure you are comfortable and happy. The house is very well done, spotlessly clean and it's a joy to come back every evening to the house and Tango :) The area is fantastic - there is a park nearby and quick home delivery of food is available from a number of places. If you are looking at staying in the area, Alok's place is strongly recommended for a happy, comfortable and safe stay!

Home away for Home

Home away for Home : The stay at alok was excellent for the few reasons. The house is nice and cosy. The location is in Koramangala area is good area (we chose this as it was near to the place we had to go). Alok him self is a very good host. He goes out of the way to make you feel so at home and taking personal attention to help you. His team of house help is very good. They cook very well. Don't miss the food they cook. Above this the pet dogs paper and maya are a treat. Our room was large on the 1st floor. The bathroom is large. Over all the house is very good, well equipped with all possible gadgets. The lounge our family spent time was large with large sofas , a guitar, Tv , music system. We just spent on evening and a night, but we had a very good stay. Highly recommended

I especially enjoyed the lovely hammock

Alok is an excellent host and my stay here was extremely comfortable. I arrived in Bangalore very early in the morning and Alok made sure the room was available before I arrived. The house is beautiful and located within walking distance of many restaurants and bars. My stay was relaxed and I especially enjoyed the lovely hammock on the terrace and of course the company of the dogs, Maya and Pepper. Will definitely visit again :)

Staying there felt like I was in my own home

Alok is a wonderful host. He is warm, accommodative and helpful. I had a crazy schedule because of which I needed flexible check in and check out timings and he made it happen. He was in touch with me throughout and ensured I had a comfortable stay. The boys in the house were extremely sweet and helpful. Huge shout out to Kishan who was around at all times taking care of every request. The property is beautiful just as you see in the pictures. It's well maintained and situated in a upscale, posh locality of Bangalore surrounded by greenery. It's close to best of restaurants, cafe's and malls. The rooms are airy, and allows natural light to come in. My balcony opened into a beautiful park. Staying there felt like I was in my own home. Everything was casual and comforting. I recommend this place to everyone. Being a lady traveling alone, I was slightly worried in the beginning, but this place is extremely safe. There was a power cut late in the light and Alok came himself to look into the matter and left only after the lights came back and I was comfortable. Thank you, Alok for such a wonderful experience.

Alok is a charismatic, charming...

Alok is a charismatic, charming and generous person( in one word, a person, you liked having as a friend) who lives in style, which is fully reflected by this fantastic property. Any single detail in this villa is well maintained,shows the positive attitude towards life of the owner and assembles to a masterpiece of lifestyle. The 2 houseboys are taking care of everything you might desire( you feel like having a butler service around you), they even served me early morning coffee and breakfast by 5:00 a.m. the day I left. I felt so comfortable, that i spent my last day in Bangalore in the villa watching football on tv( all sports and pay tv channels are available) and simply relaxed.

Amazing stay, amazing host

I love his laugh voice, always cheer me

You really feel like you're staying in a home

Alok's place is beautiful and a really great spot to relax and have an interesting conversation. However, this is only half the story. Alok himself is a very friendly and interesting guy and he's a fantastic host. You really feel like you're staying in a home rather than just stopping in a house. This is what Airbnb is meant to be all about. I'd highly recommended Alok's for anyone visiting Bangalore.

Alok's house is a great place to stay

Alok's house is a great place to stay if you come to Bangalore for a short or a long time. We have stayed here a few times in different rooms, all were clean and with everything one needs. Alok is a great host and one feels more like in a friend's house here. We have witnessed a spontaneous concert by his friends and one guest and spent a couple of nice evenings just talking over a glass of wine. The neighborhood is an upscale residential area and there are lots of cafes and restaurants around. All in all it was a great experience and we enjoyed staying in this house.

Anyone wanting to experience Bangalore

For anyone wanting to experience Bangalore in the most incredible way, Alok is your host and this is your home! I cannot explain enough what an incredible place this is. Alex, Natalie, Jake and myself were greeted into Alok's world with the most comforting open arms. He'll sit with you and answer all your questions, challenge your views and talk about absolute anything until the early hours of the morning. He'll find out what you're there for and he'll go out of his way to facilitate your every need. His crew of amazing chefs will cook you the most authentic Indian meals and breakfasts and make sure you feel perfectly at home. His friendship group extends to most educated and open minded people of Bangalore. He will encourage you to jam, mix and mingle with absolutely whoever you please and provides the most incredible spaces to do so. Alok has quite literally changed my life, I've met some people I'll be friends with for the rest of my life including Alok himself. I am so grateful we found Alok and all I can do is urge anyone visiting Bangalore to absolutely not pass up the opportunity to have him enter your life. Thank you Alok and thank you Bangalore - this will be a travel destination of mine until the day I die and I think I can speak for the rest of my travel group as well. Book it now!

This beautiful establishment has...

I went to Bangalore and never once had to venture out of Mi Casa for it to have been one of the best trips I've been on. Saying Alok is a good host is comparing a puddle to the ocean. The man truly went out of his way to make our (myself and three of my friends) stay comfortable in every regard.
The place is everything it promises and more. The location cannot be better with every facility being no more than a few minutes walk away. From pubs and hospitals to pani puri and beda stalls, everything is a fun walk in any direction. The house itself is well equipped and an omnipresent Kishan (the help) will whip you up the best damn omelettes and toast for breakfast every morning. It would not be an exaggeration to say that my fondest memories of the trip are contained within the walls of Mi Casa Su Casa.

Alok, being a local, was able to suggest the best of everything and made our stay hassle free. The place also offers the chance to meet interesting people from all walks of life which in itself was an enriching experience. Alok, Pepper, Tango, Harry and Sally, and his beautiful establishment have secured Bangalore a slot in my list of must-visit-again places.

Better than a Five Star Hotel

Delightful stay at Mi Casa

You will not find a better place in Bangalore. Period. Just book it already. Alok's place provides you with pretty much everything you need, whether you're visiting for a few days or staying for a month or two. Tranquility - he has a beautiful terrace with a hammock, rocking chair and seating area surrounded by greenery and open skies. His place is right next to a nice park which is great for morning or afternoon walks. Great for indulging in lazy afternoons contemplating, discovering yourself etc. :) Social atmosphere - Wonderful lounge area with a balcony, open to inviting friends; we have had some nice parties in my time here and it was all very enjoyable. All my friends who have visited me in my time here, have loved this place. Great amenities - Nice music system, high-speed WiFi and a giant TV for entertainment along with a comfy beanbag, chairs and sofas. Great help - He has two helpers who will take care of all your needs; they're also able to cook healthy & tasty meals. Excellent location - Koramangala is a great mix of greenery and hangouts (cafes, dessert shops, restaurants, pubs etc.) There are also several spas and gyms around (I personally loved HyperMonkey) Everything is walk-able! Easygoing and fun host - Alok's always there to help out and also good to have conversations with. Any request I had, was generally taken care of, fairly quickly. While I personally haven't needed much help getting around in the city, I've seen Alok go out of his way to help visitors plan out itineraries and reach locations/ airport safely & comfortably. If you're an animal person, he has two wonderful dogs who are good hosts too! All in all, I had a great time, and know I couldn't have picked a better place. Will definitely come back if I ever have to stay in Bangalore.

Best place for 1st time travelers to India

If you are staying in Bangalore, Alok is an amazing host. I particularly recommend him if this is your first travel to India. He is very welcoming and will give you excellent recommendations for food and anywhere you need to go/would like to see. He used a contact to help recommend what I should wear for a wedding and where to acquire it close by. He is very flexible with check in times as I did not arrive until after 2 am and he did not have a problem with this. I really enjoyed our chats during my brief stay. He is happy to help in getting you a cab and be your translator. His place is clean and very open and does not lack for amenities. His dogs are quite loveable so do not worry about them. I have stayed with l twice and if I ever come back to Bangalore, I would love to stay with him again!
