What does Shala mean?
In Sanskrit, an ancient Indian language, the word Shala means “house,” “abode,” or “home.”
We named our vacation rental business "Shala" to embody our mission: to provide each guest with a cozy, heartwarming sanctuary, truly a home away from home.
About the hosts
At the heart of Shala are Divya and Viren , a husband-wife duo who hail from two vibrant corners of the world. While Viren's memories are rooted in the golden sands of the Middle East, Divya's heart beats in rhythm with the colorful tapestry of India.
Their shared passion? Exploring the world with their two young children in tow. For Divya and Viren, a memorable place to stay plays a pivotal role in crafting those cherished memories. Every vacation home tells a story and has the potential to elevate an ordinary trip into an unforgettable adventure. It was this profound realization that sparked the genesis of Shala.
Shala isn't just a vacation rental company. It's a culmination of countless journeys, experiences, and memories from across the world. With meticulous attention to design and an uncompromising focus on hospitality, Divya and Viren strive to transform each Shala property into more than just a place to rest your head. They envision it as a warm and inviting haven where every guest feels at home, and every stay becomes a cherished memory.
We invite you to be part of the Shala story, where every stay is a journey, and every guest becomes family.
