Friendly host, nice breakfast and evening meals. Main highlight is the serene view of the lake and watching local fishermen go out and the Chinese fishing nets operate. About 30 mins in tuk tuk from Alleppey (c. 600 INR each way) which host is happy to arrange for you.

Minor point but the bedsheet had a rip in it which was obvious and not hidden by a blanket etc. so it would have been nice if they'd changed it and not put this one on the bed.

The staff were incredibly helpful arranging our Kayaking on the water. The property felt like it was in a quiet oasis which was very relaxing. The food was incredible and brilliant value for money.

It was all perfect!

We had a wonderful stay. The location right on the lake is simply beautiful, peaceful, relaxing. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming. Anshad was especially helpful, giving us great advice on how to get around, suggesting activities in the area, and helping us plan the next step of our travelling itinerary through Kerala. We truly appreciated his support and local knowledge. We also had lunch and dinners there and the food was absolutely delicious: authentic, homemade, and prepared with great care. Every meal felt special. The homestay is easy to reach by tuk-tuk, which makes it very convenient while still feeling calm and away from the crowds. We only stayed two days, but honestly, I could have stayed a month. I would come back anytime without hesitation. Highly recommended!

The owner and his family are lovely. The bedroom is simple but had everything I needed. We had a water problem during my 9 days stay but the owner solved this problem quickly.
