BluSalzz Villa - Muhamma, Alleppey - Kerala

The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and carried a cosy old-world charm that made the stay very pleasant. The staff were excellent—especially Lijin, who managed everything from room service to kitchen support with great dedication and helpfulness. The pool area and overall ambience were also very enjoyable and relaxing. Since it was the off-season, the kitchen wasn’t fully functional; however, this wasn’t an issue as food delivery through Swiggy was easily available.

food cost seems to be high as we were charged INR 400 for a total 5 cups of tea and coffee.

One of those places which you almost do not want to shout about. You want to keep it to yourself! It is a beautifully located, lake front old-style bungalow right on the lake shore. All the rooms face this view which greets the dawn, where you meet fellow guests silently on the traditional wooden veranda, watching the sun rise and the local fishermen and women in their canoes going about their business. The little pool which provides you with an infinity view over the lake is quiet and gives you a wraparound of bird filled vegetation and coconut trees. It is a perfect, low key, well-appointed place to stay. Not loads of guests in a quiet back road surrounded by some real Kerela. We had tuk tuk or cab access to Cochin, the big beach, Alleppey and the back waters. We walked round the corner to the jetty where boats took us to the nearby nature reserve island. Wonderfully simple, locally sourced, home cooked breakfast and evening meals. Quite simply a little understated slice of paradise. But here's the thing it's the people who will mean you leave a little bit of your heart here. It is managed in a quiet, dignified very sympathetic way. Requests are dealt with efficiently but with such charm. We had fresh tender coconut picked for us, we watched the leaves being quietly swept. We eat a local breakfast on the veranda cooked and served with perfect coffee (thanks). Tuk tuks were booked for trips to Sunday Church and the Wifi rebooted but we didn't need it! We eat local fish with local people in the evening and talked about local things. What a gem. What lovely people. Oh yes. My wife is in a wheelchair, once you're at bedroom / veranda level this is 100% accessible including getting poolside.

This villa is breathtaking, it's a very calm waterside property with a nice clean swimming pool and food options onsite for order. The staff were extremely helpful, always available for requests. Very clean rooms, the furniture and the aesthetics of the rooms are like royal quarters fit for kings. Definitely worth it if it's your first time in India and if you want to relax after the hustle and bustle of the cities. And they have a service to take you to a ln island not so far from the property on a boat, nice little island, kids will definitely love that place, a couple of shops for snacks, good views and nice walk for the adults, play area for the kids.

Nothing

Je kijkt uit op de Backwaters van Kerala op een hele rustige mooie plek.

Erg duur voor wat je krijgt aan service en luxe. Alleen duurste kamers staan daarnaast op Booking.com, terwijl er ok veel goedkopere kamers zijn. Voelt raar.
