Homestay FAQ

Yes – Anjanadri Island Stay is our own property about 600 meters from the boating launch, giving you precise timing control for reflection rides.

Ultra-short transit keeps you calmer, reduces oversleep risk, and lets us adapt launch minute-by-minute if wind or light changes.

Long weekends & holidays: secure stay + ride 1–2 weeks ahead to guarantee the prime dawn slot.

Yes – once you arrive we assess light & wind. A sunset scouting / silhouette add-on is easy with zero long drive.

Usually fine with prior message. We’ll still brief you on wake sequence so you rest immediately.

No – evening arrival is enough. 05:15 internal wake + 600 m proximity gives ample prep buffer.
