Divya (and her girls and husband) are lovely hosts, and her cooking (evening meal particularly) was delicious. It was fun to eat around the table with other guests, and to share stories. She sorted out boat tours for us while we were there: the sunrise bird boat trip was beautiful, just be careful if you take the lunchtime boat trip on the lake - we thought we'd paid (generously) for it, but were taken to a fish market where we were then asked to buy our fish for the lunch!

The river and the nature around the property and the calm and serene place
Travellers on a budget looking to experience a place like a local will enjoy homestays. This simple accommodation is in a private home, where the host also lives. All facilities are shared and in most cases breakfast is included.
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!
The host family were so attentive and caring- the breakfast was delicious and served to your room, they also helped us book autos and a boat trip. The room and outdoor balcony with beautiful views was perfect for a quiet backwater getaway!
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 was located at a best view point at kumarakom. You can wake up viewing the sunrise from the balcony. The room is very clean with all the facilities. Staffs are so friendly. They were continuously assisting us from beginning. The price is very cheap and so affordable. The staffs arranged us a crise ride for a very cheap rate. Also the food was so delicious. I highly recommend mountde kumarakom for the couples and also for the families
Fantastic family hosts in the best home stay of our trip
Great food, lovely family who helped us gain the full experience of a top class house They also have a beautiful house boat which we saw but did not have time to spend a night on - a big regret
Can recommend without hesitation - thank you so much Divya and family
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.
