The Coral Tree Homestay 

Your colourful Agra homestay

This charming homestay is named after the trees in our garden, which bloom with scarlet leaves in the spring.

Coral Tree Homestay lies at the heart of Agra and is perfect for those looking for an authentic place to stay in the centre of the city. Agra’s most famous attraction, The Taj Mahal is less than a 10-minute walk from Coral Tree. Your hosts, Vandna and Gopal Singh, love to welcome guests into their home where they have lived for over 20 years. Gopal is a government approved tour guide with years of experience leading tours all over India and Vandna is actively involved in local social issues so there is always something to talk about over a home-cooked meal with them. Coral Tree is a brightly painted home inspired by India’s love of colour, as well as Mexican and Moroccan influences. Most of the rooms have a private sit-out area where you can practice your morning yoga or look for just some of the 100 bird species recorded in the area including colourful peacocks.
