Family-run since 1995 · Sarangkot, 1600 m

Sunrise from your bed.
Dinner with our family.

01The view

Three of the ten highest mountains on Earth, seen from one hillside village.

Sarangkot is a viewpoint village at 1600 m, a 25-minute drive up from the lakeside city of Pokhara. From here you see Dhaulagiri I, Annapurna I and Manaslu — all above 8000 m.

Most visitors come for the sunrise. Fewer stay long enough to find what we think is the real treasure: the villages around us, and their way of life in the mountains.

How we got here

Since 1995.

We started small, and grew one room at a time — each generation building on what the last one began.

  1. 1995A teahouse on the trail

    Serving tea and meals to trekkers on their way to Annapurna Base Camp.

  2. A few years onThree guest rooms

    Our grandparents added the first rooms, so trekkers could stay the night.

  3. 2012A six-room guesthouse

    Our parents rebuilt it into a proper guesthouse.

  4. TodayTwelve rooms, all with a view

    Attached bathrooms, Wi-Fi, running hot water — and the sunrise from every room.

03Why Superview

We don't just show you the view. We help you make sense of it.

Three decades of hosting travellers from all over the world taught us what first-time visitors to Nepal tend to miss. So we designed the guesthouse — and the days you spend with us — to help put things into perspective.

  • 30+Years of hosting

    From a trailside teahouse in 1995 to twelve rooms today. We know what travellers need before they ask.

  • 1000+Guests on the trail

    Our team has set up treks and hikes in the Annapurna region for more than a thousand guests.

  • College groups from the US

    We've managed full Nepal programmes for US college groups, several times over.

Bringing a college group or study-abroad programme to Nepal? We plan those too.

05The kitchen

Annapurna is a Nepali word. It means “abundance of food.”

Our food is cooked in the family kitchen with local ingredients and the recipes of our region — the basins of the Annapurna range, where glaciers and monsoon rain make the fields grow. Eat in our cosy dining room, on your balcony, or up on the rooftop overlooking the lake.

06Beyond the viewpoint

Be more than a tourist.

What makes Nepal special is how nature and culture live together. To feel it, share a meal in a villager's home, join a local festival, or sit with a family and hear stories passed down for generations.

We're happy to arrange paragliding or the ABC trek — but as locals, our heart is in personal, immersive days out.

  • Village tours
  • Jungle walks
  • Hikes & treks
  • Farm visits
  • Cooking class
  • Volunteer at a local school
