"This place has always felt like a sanctuary"
Lucky guests will have the chance to stay at Janhvi Kapoor’s family home in Chennai for an experience unlike any other.
Janhvi will welcome two sets of two guests each at her coastal abode as a part of Airbnb’s Icons promotion.
Airbnb Icons is a new category of extraordinary experiences hosted by the world’s greatest names in music, film, television, art, sports and more.
Amanpreet Bajaj, General Manager, Airbnb India, said:
“Icons bring to life experiences that are magical and truly beyond imagination.
“As part of the Icons launch, we are thrilled to partner with Janhvi Kapoor for this special campaign, which will offer an unprecedented glimpse into Janhvi’s coastal beach home.”
Nestled on four acres of serene beachfront, Janhvi Kapoor’s coastal home has been the place for many childhood summers spent with her family.
For the first time ever, it will be available to select Airbnb guests.
Guests will have the privilege of immersing themselves in the rich tapestry of the Kapoor family legacy, and be able to unwind like Janhvi during their stay.
Janhvi will personally greet the guests and provide them with an exclusive tour of her home.
From the hand-crafted marble lotus sculpture gracing the entrance and ushering in positive energy to the expansive interior spaces styled in bamboo, rattan and marble, the entire home is designed for ultimate relaxation.
Within the heart of the home lies the minimalist living room.
The dining area is rich with cherished family memories while Janhvi’s dressing room is where she develops her natural skincare treatments.
Towards the back of the house lies a vast garden dotted with palm trees and fountains, with an expansive swimming pool and shaded gazebo offering an idyllic spot to relax and enjoy an alfresco sunset.
Janhvi Kapoor said: “My most cherished memories are of summers spent with my family at our Chennai home.
“This place has always felt like a sanctuary, and I want to share this special feeling with my fans, which is why, for the first time ever, I’m opening the doors to our home on Airbnb.
“I’m excited to share our family’s rituals with Airbnb guests who will get a chance to unwind like the Kapoors – chilling by the pool, enjoying some of our favourite meals, practising yoga, trying my mother’s natural skin care recipes, and most importantly, making special memories.
“I am thrilled to be a part of Airbnb’s Icons category and look forward to welcoming Airbnb guests home.”
Throughout the experience, fans will meet Janhvi and spend a day in her life, doing the things she enjoys the most.
Elements of the stay include:
- Embarking on a private tour of the house with Janhvi as she shares her cherished memories from the times spent here.
- Indulging in relaxation as Janhvi unveils her all-natural skincare routine and spills her top Bollywood beauty secrets.
- Savouring the flavour of South Indian cuisine with Janhvi’s favourite dishes, including Ghee Podi Rice, Andhra Biryani, Pesarattu Dosa and Palkova.
- Awakening the senses with a morning yoga session amidst breathtaking vistas, followed by a delectable breakfast.
- Treasuring personalised keepsakes from Janhvi as mementos of this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
