White Wood Gir in Talala — What This Resort Near Gir Somnath Costs
White Wood Gir is a 10BHK resort in Talala, Gir Somnath. Rates, capacity, amenities and the house rules worth reading before you book.
We list around 3 properties in Gir Somnath. White Wood Gir in Talala is one of them — a 10BHK resort — and it is worth a closer look because the capacity and the rate structure are not what most people expect.
What it costs
- Weekday: ₹8,370
- Weekend: ₹8,370
- Per additional person: none listed
The weekday and weekend rates are effectively the same, which is unusual. It removes the single biggest saving available on most properties — so there is no reason not to take the Saturday.
With no per-person charge listed, the headline rate is closer to the real total than it is on most properties — which makes this materially cheaper for a large group than the number first suggests.

Reading the capacity
White Wood Gir lists 50 by day and 50 overnight — figures that are close together, which usually means a property built as a stay rather than as a function venue. With 10 bedrooms across 50 guests, most of a full group has a bed rather than a mattress, which is the practical advantage of a property shaped this way. The trade-off is that the limit is a hard number. A venue property will absorb ten extra people for a daytime function; this one will not, and several properties state that only the headcount confirmed at booking may be on site. So confirm the final number before you book rather than after, and check the per-person charge for anyone above the included figure.
What you actually get
The listing itemises it, which is a good sign in itself — owners write this out when guests actually ask. Total 9 rooms available. Charges mentioned are for 1 room; additional rooms can be booked depending on extra persons. Check-in: 10:00 AM | Check-out: 10:00 AM (next day). Rates:. * 1,800 per person (minimum 5 persons required in 1 room). * Couple room: 5,000 (additional person: 1,500). Amenities:. Room by room, the detail goes further than most listings: General lists Common Swimming Pool, Garden, Kids Swimming pool, Kids play area, Parking Facility, Slides & Swings. Everything above is on the page before you pay, which is the part that makes a property like this decidable rather than a gamble.
The area
People come here for the lion safari, not for a weekend — so it is resorts with rooms and food included rather than farmhouses you book whole. Talala is reached via the Junagadh–Veraval road, and the last stretch is worth checking with the property directly if you are driving something low or arriving after dark. That is a question owners answer honestly, because a guest stuck on a bad road is their problem too. If the group wants something beyond the property, the usual additions from here are the Somnath temple, Gir National Park, the Kesar mango orchards around Talala. On timing: the park closes mid-June to mid-October; October to March is the season, December to February the peak.
Ask the owner directly
Every property has a chat thread attached to it. Use it before booking rather than after — owners field these questions constantly and answer quickly, and it is far more reliable than a broker's summary.
The single most useful question, and the one almost nobody asks: what usually goes wrong at bookings here? Owners have watched hundreds of them and will tell you the specific local answer.
The rules worth reading
Permitted: outside food.
Not permitted: non-vegetarian food, alcohol.
These vary property by property, and two places on the same road frequently take opposite positions. The ones that most often change a decision are alcohol, whether outside food is allowed, and whether you may use the kitchen — the last two being separate permissions rather than one.
From the owner's own house rules: All guest's Id proof required at the time of check-in. Couples are welcome.(18+ only). Family can book this property.
Who it suits
A group of up to 50 staying over. With the two capacity figures close together, this is a stay property rather than a function venue, and it works best booked as one. Families with young children. A separate children's pool is a genuinely different thing from a shallow end, and it changes what an afternoon looks like with under-tens. Worth flagging: there is no private pool listed here. In this category that is unusual enough to be the first thing to check against your group's expectations. Where it is the wrong booking: a large daytime function. The capacity is a hard limit rather than a generous one, and a venue-shaped property will take twice the people for a similar rate.

| Prashiv Stay | Sasan | 30 / 30 | ₹23,250 | Common |

Before you book
The listing covers most of it. What is left is worth a single message before you pay: — What is the per-person charge, and how many guests are included in the base rate? At any group size above twenty this is the line that moves the total most. — Is outside food allowed, and separately, can we use the kitchen? Two different permissions, and plenty of properties grant one and not the other. — How much is the deposit and is it cash on arrival? It comes back, but somebody has to be carrying it. — What usually goes wrong at bookings here? The single most useful question available to you, and almost nobody asks it. — What time does music have to stop? Most properties in residential pockets enforce a 10:00 PM cut-off and they mean it. Get the answers in the booking thread rather than on a call. The person who replies in September may not be the person handing you the keys in November.
What a nightly-rate platform cannot show you
Airbnb and the hotel aggregators are built around a room and a night. That works for a city trip and it fits this category badly.
A farmhouse has two guest limits, not one — a day-time figure and a night-time figure, often several times apart — because a day booking is limited by garden, parking and washrooms while an overnight is limited by beds. It is also commonly sold as a half day or a full day with no night attached, which is the product a birthday or a family lunch actually wants and which a nightly platform has no way to list.
When to book it
For this market the season runs as follows: the park closes mid-June to mid-October; October to March is the season, December to February the peak. For an ordinary weekend, three to four weeks is comfortable. For anything attached to a festival or a long weekend, six to eight. The next date likely to affect availability here is Christmas on Friday 25 December 2026, so if your plans fall near it, book ahead of the rush rather than into it. And if the dates can move at all, take a weekday. In this category that is worth between a quarter and half the rate, which is more than switching to a cheaper property usually achieves.
Booking it on the app
If you are looking for short-term rental vacation homes in Gir Somnath — farmhouses, villas, resorts or weekend homes — the BookMyFarm app and website carry the same inventory and the same detail. Search by city or by area, filter on the amenities that actually matter to you, read the owner's house rules, message the owner, and book the slot you want.
For anyone who has tried and failed to find this kind of property on a nightly-rate site, it is the closest thing to a purpose-built Airbnb alternative for the Indian farmhouse and villa market — because it is built around how these places are actually rented: by the slot, by the whole property, with two separate guest limits.
