oolala - Your Lake House in the Center of Udaipur

ABOUT OOLALA-YOUR LAKE HOUSE IN THE CENTER OF UDAIPUR

Udaipur is world-famous as THE location for a quintessential North Indian wedding experience. Our house, named “oolala,” is perfect for sophisticated guests—Indian + foreign tourists, honeymooners, business travelers, and people who want a purely Udaipur/Rajasthani experience on the lake. During wedding season, this includes “monsoon wedding” processions on many streets throughout the city, fireworks over the lake, and beautiful symphonies of temple bells—all against the backdrop of peaceful Udaipur lakes.

How is oolala different from other ? It’s quintessential Udaipur:

​

• oolala is YOUR lake house in Udaipur, Rajasthan: Two sides of this red house face the lake; it’s right on the edge of the lake, touching the water. You can’t get any closer than that. Every room in our house has lake-facing views (except the office and two of the bathrooms). From the rooftop terrace, you have 360-views of the lake and Udaipur + the wildlife living on a small island nearby (ducks, eagles, parrots, and many other types of birds). Coupled with that, oolala is in a vibrant neighborhood right in the center of Udaipur within walking distance of the most popular tourist attractions.

• oolala is an old, Indian-style house: It has gorgeous paintings of village folk art + traditional lights throughout the house. The furniture and décor was handcrafted by Rajasthani artisans, and the paintings were painted by Udaipur artists. Everything you experience in this house is sophisticated + pure Rajasthan. It’s truly one-of-a-kind.

​

• oolala is a true Airbnb house: It’s not a hotel masquerading as an Airbnb. Because of that, your stay is in a *house,* with all the benefits that provides. One of which is the homemade dinner service we offer (for an additional charge): Delicious, vegetarian food prepared hygienically and with love by me (Lovely, the wife in the husband-wife hosting duo) or my sweet mother-in-law who is an experienced home cook.

• Manish, the house caretaker + cleaner also lives at oolala and is at your disposal 24/7. Although his English is minimal, he understands universal body language. 🙂

​
• We rent three private bedrooms on Airbnb, so you can easily interact as much or little as you want with other travelers in all oolala’s common areas—kitchen, dining room, sitting room (with a lake-facing balcony), office, and beautiful rooftop terrace with a 360-view of central Udaipur and the lakes.
