AshtamudiVillas

We had a wonderful stay at Ashtamudi Villas! The place is simple, in Laurie Baker style, but that’s exactly part of its charm – everything was very clean and had all the essentials you need to feel comfortable. A special mention goes to the incredibly attentive and helpful team. They even assisted us with booking train tickets, which can be quite challenging in India – this support made a big difference for us! We loved to take the kanu for a quite trip on the open lake, where lovely people greeting from the shore. The absolute highlight was the owner himself. He went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable: he took us to local temple festivals and showed us places that tourists would hardly ever discover on their own. He also drove us to many beautiful and unique spots, giving us a truly authentic experience of the region. Thanks to this personal care and genuine hospitality, our stay was something very special. We highly recommend this place from the bottom of our hearts!

Only the many crows in the palm trees were annoying and left their droppings.

Es un lugar tranquilo, perfecto para desconectar del bullicio de las ciudades de la India, estas un poco lejos de todo pero nosotros lo cogimos para descansar y desconectar.Desayunamos alli y pedimos si podrian hacernos comida, no hubo problema y estaba muy muy bueno todo, una de las tardes el chico que trabaja alli nos recomendó ir a un ritual que hacian a unos 20 min en tuk-tuk en el que habia elefantes y musica el se encargó de reservarnos el transposte y fue una buena experiencia. La habitación y el baño estaban limpios.Las camas nos parecieron muy comodas.

Lovely peaceful solar powered villas by the water, we had a great stay. The host was super helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We loved relaxing on the hammocks! Good proximity to Kollam but felt very quiet and peaceful. Would recommend thoroughly!

Only downside (although this was not a major issue!) was that some of the staff were off for the Easter Bank Holiday weekend, so we weren’t able to have lunch & dinner in the villas, but the host was very helpful with recommending us places to eat & take away food from!

This is not a hotel. But a home stay. Liked only the staff. A one man show.

The location. They should keep the minimum facilities in the room.
