    The property owner is very supportive and being native of Tiruvannamalai, he is aware of all information about Arunachalam.He helped in hiring auto and told them to drop us as near as to the temple. There at the temple car parking is almost 1KM away, even though we have a car it is better to go by auto.He is good at communicating anything in a gentle manner.Over all everything is fine.

    I had a truly memorable stay at this vacation home in Tiruvannamalai. The host is an exceptionally kind and helpful person. He went out of his way to make my trip comfortable—from picking me up at the bus stand late at night, to personally taking care of me when I unexpectedly fell ill during my stay. He even brought me to the hospital and made sure I recovered enough to go for my temple darshan, which was the highlight of my trip. Not only did he take me to the temple, but he also dropped me at the railway station for my return journey. Without his support, it would have been very difficult for me to manage everything. His help and care throughout my stay made all the difference, and I am truly grateful. Apart from being such a generous host, he is also a local who knows the town and its hidden gems very well. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Tiruvannamalai—both for the comfort of the stay and the kindness of the host.

    I had a wonderful experience staying at **DSS Home Stay** with my wife and infant. From the moment we arrived, Dinakaran made sure everything was absolutely comfortable and convenient for us. He personally arranged our pick-up and drop, which made traveling stress-free. During our stay, he took complete care of our local transportation needs by promptly calling autos whenever required, and even went the extra mile by offering his scooty when needed – a very thoughtful gesture that truly made a difference. The room was very neat, well-maintained, and the bathrooms were exceptionally clean, which gave us peace of mind, especially while traveling with a little one. The stay was not only comfortable but also felt very homely thanks to the warm hospitality. Overall, it was a perfect combination of cleanliness, comfort, and genuine care. I would highly recommend **DSS Home Stay** to anyone visiting the area, and especially for families traveling solo or with family or with children.

    We had a truly delightful stay at DSS Home Stay. The property was spotlessly clean, the rooms were cozy and comfortable, and the hosts went out of their way to make us feel at home. The location was peaceful yet well-connected, making it easy to explore the temple area and for Girivalam. We appreciated the personal touches and hospitality—definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting!

    The Host! Amazing people. We don't find many people like them very often. Were very keen on looking after us and making us feel absolutely comfortable and guided us on What has to be done when n how. He personally came late at night to the bus stop to pick us up, and made us feel a bit safer. Didn't neglect any requests Highly recommended if you're travelling as a family. .

    Dinakaran and his wife made me very welcome in their guest house. The room was the only one on the roof so very quiet, there was no air conditioning but it was fine despite the April heat. I didn't eat with them as I didn't know I could, which was a mistake on my part as Dinakaran's wife's cooking looks very good so don't make the same mistake I did. Dinakaran picked me up from the bus and kindly took me home on his scooter. The bus was late and he came back with his wife to make sure the bus was there. And for a few dozen euros, he also took me to the Tiruvannamalai temple, the Siri Aurobindo Ashrams, and part of the tour of the sacred mountain. And the next day I was leaving early but he dropped me off at the ashram so that I could take the walk up the mountain to a lovely viewpoint over the temple and the town, and see a very peaceful little ashram, where on the way up and down I came across two kinds of amusing breeds of monkey. Don't forget to take water, but on the way there are also small vendors selling water and lemon juice. Dinakaran and his wife do everything to make your stay a pleasant one.
