Boasting air-conditioned accommodation with a patio, Backwater Breeze is set in Kumarakom. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi.

If I could give this place 10 stars I would! The location and hospitality are tied for first place in my heart. They brought me fresh chai upon arrival, offered to let me borrow a bicycle to cycle around the canals, helped me to book a boat ride at sunrise, and provided me with the perfect place to unwind and relax. The AC is a wonderful bonus! I’ll be back. Thank you for the best time on the backwaters!

located by the side of Meenachil river and 1 km from vembanadu lake, Mango Kerala Homes offers accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi. Complimentary private parking is available on site.

We had a wonderful stay at the Mangp Kerala Homestay. Divya and Dileep are fabulous hosts and their girls and staff are lovely. The room was very comfortable with good aircon and hot water and a lovely balcony overlooking the water. Divya is a wonderful cook and we tried many traditional Keralean dishes. The fish we had was some of the best we have tasted. While there we did the sunrise 2 hour tour with Dileep which was magical anf the best trip on the backwaters.We also used the government ferry to cross the lake for a day out to Mairi beach as well as to go from Kottayam to our next stay in Alappuzha. We would not hesitate to book another stay. And a big thank to Divya and Dileep for being our hosts,

Set within 49 km of Cochin Shipyard and less than 1 km of Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary, Garggi Kumarakom Village Homestay offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Kumarakom.

Location is good. Just like the name implies, it is a village stay with good neighbourliness. River front. Have to go through a narrow road to reach the property, which is beautiful. Calm and quiet campus with lots of fruits free to pluck. Food was also homely and good quality. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The toilet was really large, almost the size of a bedroom.

Boasting pool views, Kuttickattil Gardens Homestay provides accommodation with pool with a view, free bikes and a garden, around 8.5 km from Kottayam Railway Station.

We enjoyed our stay here very much. The location is outside the crowded spaces on the coast which gives it a tranquil experience. The cooking is no less than excellent - can only recommend the Idli & curry combination. Ajith has good advice on various things to do and see and can actively help you organize transport. We would book here againg.

    This host family tries to make you as comfortable as possible. We had dinner twice and both times it was really good! The room has everything you need. Good bed, aircon+ fan. Clean bathroom with hot water in the evenings. The garden is also very lovely.

    Divya and her lovely family especially Minakshi her daughter really gave us true feeling of family homestay, showed us the nearby neighborhood, cooked us the best food we ate in Kerala and helped us in every possible way. We learned a lot on the place and its people. Thanks so much, Divya and family.

    Lovely small homestay run by a wonderful family, who took care of my every need (and more) as a solo female traveler. Walking distance to the bird sanctuary (a little dilapidated but worth it for the stork colony) and the lakeshore, and perfect location for walking or cycling along various canals (bikes and directions provided for free). Room was comfortable and well equipped. Breakfasts were fabulous too, as well as conversations with the hosts, who built this charming "wooden castle" as a labor of love. Highly recommended!

    Our stay at this charming home stay was truly fantastic! The family who owns it exuded warmth and hospitality throughout our visit. The rates were reasonable, and the meals were not only delicious but also meticulously prepared. The serene surroundings added to the overall tranquility, making it the perfect retreat to unwind. Without a doubt, we will eagerly return if we find ourselves in the area again. A heartfelt thank you to Coconut Palms Village Homestay for an unforgettable experience."

    Fabulous stay. Divya, her family, and staff are welcoming and foster a home-like environment. We had engaging conversations and shared stories. The rooms are clean and well-kept. The homestay is located near a quiet rural road that runs alongside a canal and passes through villages and rice fields. We took a pleasant 3-hour walk from the homestay to the main lake, along the canal, where we saw different birds and interacted with villagers.

    The Homestay is in a great location. You can easily arrange for a boat to collect you by the front and you are almost at the lake. The garden space is very good. It works well for two people who don’t want to share a room.
