The Doksa

Conscious, Intentional Hospitality

In Spitian (the dialect of Tibetan spoken in the Spiti Valley), a doksa refers to a seasonal, temporary settlement or pasture used by nomadic herders, typically occupied during the summer months.

The Doksa is an eco-conscious boutique farmstay, set amidst the beautiful sprawling pea plantations of Mane in Spiti Valley. With 10 well appointed rooms and a restaurant with panoramic views of Manirang Massif, here luxury finds its stillness at the roof of the world.

Your stay here has been designed as an all inclusive experience with included meals and curated experiences that are designed for you to slow down, reconnect with nature and immerse yourself in the culture of the valley.

The property sits in a quietly breathtaking expanse with uninterrupted views of Manirang (6600 Meters), Dhankar Monastery, and the Spiti River. Summer brings a vibrant green plateau and the soft hum of village life, while autumn turns the valley gold. Winter offers stillness, solitude, and a landscape painted in browns and white, where the winter wildlife comes alive. This is an exclusivity defined by the sheer location and landscapes that surround us.

The Living Experience

The Doksa's ten thoughtfully crafted rooms offer privacy, warmth, and an immediate connection to the valley. Built with rammed-earth walls that naturally regulate temperature, each room features floor-to-ceiling windows that bring in abundant sunlight and frame uninterrupted mountain views.

Every room includes an ensuite bathroom, tea and coffee station, 24×7 hot water, sustainable bath amenities, robes, slippers, and a curated pillow menu, along with a lounging nook, luggage rack, and compact wardrobe. Four rooms can be arranged as double or twin, with provision for an additional guest on a foldable bed. Designed with low-impact systems at their core, our rooms blend sustainable luxury, thoughtful functionality, and harmony with the high-altitude landscape.
