Amazing restaurant called “Fisherman’s cafe” is right beside the homestay.

    The hosts are extremely helpful and help you plan your stay by recommending amazing locations which are accessible by amazing government transport modes like jetty. The breakfast provided is very homely and healthy. The area is well connected by waterway and roadway with public transport available till 8pm. They have a cosy swimming pool and the foliage in the property makes the stay even better. The night skies are illuminated with fireflies. :)

    this unique bungalow above water is charming, quiet, close to the paddy fields. Owner and servant are lovely, extremely honest and dedicated. I was asked every morning which fruit should be served from the garden. fish from the pound is grilled. very special place in a small village outside the touristic rush area. equipment , though basic , is sufficient for a peaceful stay.

    Lovely hosts. Nice and quiet location on the river. Lovely place for pure relaxation, birdwatching, reading, walking or just "dolce far niente". We had some really nice food. One of the best home made caramel custards we have had in a long time. :-)

    AUTHENTIC KERALAEAN FARMSTAY! The room situated above the pond gives a cool atmosphere when inside the guesthouse. The owner is super genuine showing me the lifestyle on the farm, offering the fresh fruit which grows on the land, even inviting me to a meal at his own house. My experience at Thomman's Farm stay was incredible and I can't recommend this place enough if your up for a relaxing time in a traditional Keralean farm.
