Travel today often promises escape but delivers noise, crowds, and rushed experiences. At Solis Nature, we believe a stay should slow you down, not speed you up. This belief shapes every decision we make—especially how we choose the stays in India you see on our platform.
Understanding the Thought Behind Solis Nature
Before we talk about how we curate and approve stays, it’s important to share the thinking behind Solis Nature itself. Our curation process didn’t start with properties or destinations—it started with a clear understanding of what modern travel was missing, and what travelers truly needed more of.
Travel today has become louder, faster, and more crowded than ever before. Popular destinations are overflowing, accommodations are increasingly commercial, and what once felt like an escape now often feels like another checklist-driven experience. We felt this deeply—both as travelers and as people who value silence, space, and nature.
Solis Nature was born from this very discomfort.
We are a Netherlands-based travel company, operationally run from India, built with a simple but powerful intention: to help people rediscover slow, meaningful travel through carefully curated, nature-centric stays. We are not a listing-first marketplace. We are not chasing numbers. And we are not trying to be everything for everyone.
Instead, we focus on one thing—trustworthy, private, handpicked stays that allow you to disconnect from chaos and reconnect with nature, yourself, and the people you’re traveling with.
This blog is an honest look into how we discover, evaluate, and approve stays on the Solis Nature platform. It’s not a marketing pitch. It’s our story, our process, and our belief system—shared transparently so you know exactly what goes on behind the scenes before a property ever reaches you.
Why Solis Nature Exists in the First Place
Before talking about curation, it’s important to understand why Solis Nature exists.
We saw a growing gap in the travel ecosystem. Travelers were increasingly searching for:
- Peace over parties
- Privacy over shared spaces
- Nature over concrete
- Experiences over algorithms
Yet most platforms rewarded volume—more listings, more ads, more noise. Beautiful-sounding properties often turned out to be crowded, poorly maintained, or disconnected from real natural surroundings. Guest trust was being compromised in the race for scale.
We created Solis Nature to solve this problem.
Our purpose is simple:
to offer private, nature-first stays that support well-being, respect the environment, and deliver exactly what they promise.
A Global Vision, Grounded in Indian Roots
Solis Nature is a Netherlands-based company, with its operational heart in India. This combination matters.
Our global outlook helps us design systems, standards, and ethics that match international expectations. At the same time, our Indian operational roots allow us to deeply understand on-ground realities—locations, hosts, maintenance standards, guest behavior, and regional nuances.
We currently curate handpicked stays in India and are steadily expanding to other parts of the world, always with the same nature-first lens.
Our credibility is further strengthened by our parent company, International Tractors Limited, the makers of Sonalika and Solis tractors. While we don’t operate like a corporate giant, the values of long-term thinking, integrity, and trust come from that foundation.
We Are Curators, Not Aggregators
One of the most important things to know about the Solis Nature platform is this:
We reject far more properties than we approve.
Curation, for us, is not a buzzword. It is a responsibility.
Unlike open marketplaces where anyone can list a property, we actively research, assess, and filter stays before they ever appear on our platform. Quantity has never been our goal. In fact, adding fewer but better properties is a conscious decision we make every day.
This is why travelers searching for curated stays in India often tell us the same thing:
“I feel safer booking here because I know someone has already done the homework.”
Step 1: Discovering Locations That Still Breathe
Our journey starts with geography, not listings.
We actively research destinations that:
- Are surrounded by forests, mountains, lakes, farms, or open landscapes
- Are away from crowded tourist centers
- Still retain ecological balance and natural silence
- Support slow, mindful travel
Nature must be accessible, not just visible in photos.
Step 2: Filtering for Privacy and Exclusivity
This is a non-negotiable standard for us.
Solis Nature does not onboard:
- Dormitories
- Shared homes
- Co-living spaces
We only approve entire, private stays—villas, cottages, farm stays, cabins, and retreats where guests have their own space.
Privacy is not a luxury. It is essential for rest, reflection, and genuine connection with nature. This is why private nature stays are at the core of everything we curate.
Step 3: Evaluating Guest Trust Through Reviews
Before a property ever reaches our internal shortlist, we study its guest history carefully.
Our baseline requirements include:
- A minimum 4+ overall guest rating
- Consistent positive reviews over time
- Honest feedback that reflects real experiences
- Clear signs of good hosting and responsiveness
One or two beautiful images cannot override poor guest experiences. If reviews show recurring complaints—about cleanliness, upkeep, noise, or misleading descriptions—the property does not move forward.
Trust is built long before the booking happens.
Step 4 : Rejecting Properties That Don’t Align
This is perhaps the most invisible—but most important—part of our curation process.
We regularly say no.
We reject properties that:
- Prioritize aesthetics over experience
- Don’t maintain consistent standards
- Misrepresent their surroundings
- Focus on volume-driven bookings rather than guest care
Every rejection is intentional. Protecting guest trust matters more to us than expanding inventory.
This is why handpicked stays in India on Solis Nature feel different—they are fewer, but they are reliable.
Pricing Transparency and No Guest Commission
Another core belief we hold strongly is pricing honesty.
Solis Nature does not charge any commission from guests. What you see is what you pay—no hidden fees, no inflated prices, no last-minute surprises.
We believe transparency builds confidence, and confidence builds long-term relationships.
Our focus is not on quick conversions but on repeat travelers who trust us with their most valuable time—their breaks, their holidays, their moments of rest.
A Platform Built for the Long Term
We often say internally that Solis Nature is not built for speed—it’s built for longevity.
We are designing a platform that:
- Grows responsibly
- Respects nature and local ecosystems
- Supports hosts who genuinely care
- Serves travelers who value depth over discounts
This long-term thinking comes naturally to us, shaped by our global outlook and strengthened by the credibility of our parent company, without ever becoming impersonal or corporate in spirit.
The People Behind the Platform
Behind every approved stay is a team that:
- Researches late into the night
- Reads reviews line by line
- Cross-checks details
- Asks uncomfortable questions
- Chooses integrity over convenience
We are travelers ourselves. We know what it feels like to arrive somewhere with high expectations—and what it feels like when those expectations are broken.
That empathy guides every decision we make on the Solis Nature platform.
Looking Ahead: Curating Nature Stays Worldwide
While India remains at the heart of our operations, our vision is global. We are steadily expanding curated nature-centric stays to other parts of the world—always with the same principles, the same standards, and the same respect for place and people.
Wherever Solis Nature goes, the promise stays the same.
A Thoughtful Conclusion
Solis Nature was never meant to be just another booking website.
It is a curated space built on trust, patience, and intention—a platform where every stay earns its place, and every guest experience matters.
Our curation process is not perfect, but it is honest. It evolves, it learns, and it always puts nature and people first.
If you’re looking for curated stays in India or thoughtfully selected private nature stays around the world, we hope this transparency helps you understand not just what we offer—but why we exist.
And if you choose to travel with us, know that behind every stay is a promise we take personally.
