Un séjour magnifique accompagné par Faizal et sa famille - je leur apporte mon souvenir et mon amitié 😘

10.0

L’accueil de Faizal de son épouse et de sa fille ! Une magnifique maison à 400 m de la mer d’Arabie ! La surface des chambres, la qualité des installations, tout est réfléchi et exceptionnel ! J’ai rencontré l’architecte avec Faizal que j’ai félicité pour le projet immobilier ! Respectueux des lieux et des cocotiers ! Je souhaite à Faizal et sa famille le meilleur ! Je reviendrai pour Onam.

Lovely homestay away from the bustle of Kumily.

8.0

The location is excellent - 5 minutes by tuk tuk into town and the property has superb views. If you are lucky you may see a Sambar Deer in the ‘forest’ below the home stay or a family of Black Lingo monkeys in the trees outside. The owners are very helpful , requesting tuk tuks or arranging day tours. Breakfast was excellent with omelettes, toast & jam served along with tea & coffe. Panthalams is simple accommodation but its simplicity is beautiful. Please note there is no lift at the home stay.

The WiFi is very erratic and phone signal is poor.

Very hospitable host family - great experience for our children

8.0

The house is away from the center of the city in a quiet residential area., but getting there is a van was a bit difficult. The room sizes are good and bathrooms were clean and functional. Comfortable large beds. Would definitely recommend using the hammocks on the top floor, I fell asleep within minutes of lying down- blissful with the breeze. The host family is fantastic. Shakoor, his wife and daughter were very helpful and were warm to talk to. The breakfast and teas they offered very delicious and good value for money.

Location is a bit hard to get to through little streets in a van. No proper parking facility for the vehicle.
