Nothing, everything was great!

Great stay in a lovely traditional yurt located in a beautiful garden just on the outskirts of Karakol. The owner and his lovely family were super friendly and so helpful and supportive with everything, they gave us tips and suggestions where to eat and what to do in Karakol. The owner's wife prepared delicious breakfast every morning that we enjoyed having in their beautiful conservatory. The Yurt itself was very clean and comfortable and had plenty of power sockets. The toilets and showers were modern and clean. The owners spoke good English, which we found very helpful. Was one of our favourite stays in Kyrgyzstan and couldn't recommend this gem more highly!

Great stay and nice sleeping in a ‘glamping’ yurt with super nice facilities. What really made it an awesome stay was the host and his family. He helped us plan our onwards travel and spent a lot of time with us in the evening helping us design our trip for the coming days (we were roadtripping in a rented car and wanted to camp in the mountains).

The Yurt camp was lovely, clean and comfortable and very friendly family staff. The Yurts themselves are clean and cosy, cool in the heat of the day and warm enough at night with plenty of power sockets. There is good wifi and good breakfast provided. Showers with hot water and proper flushing loos. When trying to find it, don’t get put off by the backstreets, it is exactly where maps.me and GoogleMaps say it is. The owner and his family were so helpful, giving us tips for places to eat in town and helping us organise kayaking and putting us in touch with a brilliant company for a trek to Ala Kul (a very hard trek but unmissable if you are there). He also helped us plan our drive from Karakol to Osh, through the mountains and via Son Kul, putting us in touch with guesthouse owners in the towns we planned to stay in. Couldn’t recommend more highly!

The family is the nicest, offering me free food and to help for everything. They arranged an amazing tour in the Valley so I can do horseback riding, it was breathe taking! 100% recommend Happy Nomad if you want an amazing stay in a yurt 🛖

Tynch and his family were extremely friendly and made you feel like a family member. They helped with everything you needed, calling taxis whenever you needed ( 1 euro no matter where you go), they took time to explain everything about the mountains and areas without trying to sell anything, among the honest people you would ever meet. They even cleaned all my clothes when down from the mountains at a very small rate. The Yurts were so impressive and with lots of space.

Very hospitable family driven establishment. The manager Tynch went out of his way to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Top class guy. Top class place.

We loved everything about this place!

What an amazing place to stay! I was travelling with 4 friends as we were passing through Karakol on our way to trek in the mountains for a week, we stayed here for 2 nights and really wished we had longer to spend at this beautiful hostel. All 5 of us stayed in one of the yurts and it was perfect: beautiful colors and design, just the right temperature, comfy beds, plenty of space, outlets for charging our electronics. There is a BEAUTIFUL garden that the yurts are in the middle of, it is really this peaceful sanctuary just on the outskirts of Karakol. The bathrooms and showers were clean, there was a great common area to hang out in, and a lovely breakfast room. The hosts are amazing and so helpful! Tynch and his family gave us some great tips for in Karakol as well as for our hike and they helped us with so many things like booking taxis to our next destination. The breakfast each morning is delicious! Delicious fruits, breads, meats, eggs, and even an amazing cake each morning. Like I said our only regret was that we didn't have longer here, you could easily stay for a week and just enjoy the beautiful surroundings and relaxing atmosphere. We will absolutely stay here again when we return to Karakol and would recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

The moment I stepped into the garden I immediately felt at peace. The beautiful flowers and cute yurts and other facilities made me feel like coming home. I wish I stayed longer. It is a place from where you can travel in the area but also a place you can take some time to yourself. The family who owns it is also amazing. The owner is really nice and helped me when my flipflops broke and also organized a nice restaurant to go to and gave tips and tricks on what to visit. His mother also gave me great advice on where to travel to and his wife made a lovely breakfast in the morning. I loved everything about this stay. Oh and it was also very clean which I find important.
