Private Pool Hut Sohra |Polo Orchid Resort | Smriti Rao Das

Cherrapunji (or locally known as Sohra) is the abode of clouds and waterfalls and the Polo Orchid Resort here served just the purpose for my private pool stay within a budget.
We booked the log hut/log cabin/standard hut as the resort people call it and it had a private pool and exquisite mountain views.
We stayed for one night here and that costed us ₹16,000 for a night (not 18 as I mistakenly told in the video). The private pool overlooks the mountain and that is perhaps the best part of this room. The resort also has an Infinity pool which directly overlooks the seven sister waterfalls. However at this time of the year (mid October), the waterfalls were not in full swing and we could see only small stream of the seven sister waterfalls.
The resort has only one restaurant called the Sohra house. The food was not what we would expect in such an expensive resort but that was made Good Friday extremely polite and courteous behaviour by the staff.
The morning videos were unparalleled you could see Bangladesh from the room. In the morning we followed a little trail to catch the sunrise and that was totally worth it.
p.s.: The entry rules in Meghalaya are pretty simple currently. Double vaccinated people (at least 15 days since the second dose) do not need anything in particular. Just carry the final vaccination certificate or else a negative RT PCR test. Apply on www.meghalayat... for an e-invite before entering Meghalaya.

Hey man can you please tell us the estimate amount we will need to stay in sohra if we are there for vacation for 3 days. Would be a great help 😀

Just remove this word cherrapunji just #SOHRA that will be enough please try to help the people to get the name correctly that through your help other's will start recognising the name of the place with respect to the people as #SOHRA

[@careenmarbaniang5973]

Sohra is so beautiful ❤️

[@Kc-iu4ru]

One advice for these youtubers who are making videos about our place #SOHRA I just want to asked them when ever you entitle this place in your vids please write the correct information/name of the place since we #Local we never called this place #cherrapunji it's the people from outside having less information and regards to the #Local that they're naming or putting the incorrect information/name about our respective place. WE the local and I know that all tourist who visited these places they can see it clearly mentioned in the #SIGNBOARD the correct information/name of the place #SOHRA it was written in big bold letters all around the areas. So please I suggest you youtubers try to respect the name of the local. Thank you with regards from #SOHRA people

For the people complaining about the price. This is the price point you will get with any 4 star hotel anywhere. And don't worry you have lots of options to stay comfortably with the lowest price point starting from 1K onwards.
