⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Riverside Paradise – Exceptional Hospitality! Our stay here was nothing short of magical, largely thanks to the incredible host, Faiz, and his wonderful family. From the moment we arrived, Faiz went entirely above and beyond expectations to ensure we had the perfect vacation. He was an absolute lifesaver with logistics—arranging our cabs, guiding us to the most prominent local sightseeing spots, and even personally sourcing authentic Kerala spices for us to take home. 🍽️ A Culinary Masterclass (Better than Michelin Stars!) The food alone is worth traveling for. Faiz’s mother is an absolute culinary genius—honestly, her cooking is way better than a seven-star Michelin chef! Every meal was a celebration of local delights. We were treated to: Perfectly prepared mussels Rich, authentic Malabar Biryani Fluffy Puttu and flaky Malabar Parotta A divine local mango chutney Endless cups of refreshing black tea, served by Auntie at any time we asked, always with the warmest smile. Kid-Friendly Note: Traveling with little ones can be stressful, but the food here is incredibly kid-friendly. My 3-year-old son was absolutely thrilled with both the place and the meals! 🗺️ Serene Views & Unbeatable Activities The property itself is nestled in paradise. The riverside view is incredibly serene, looking out at a lush green island just a stone’s throw away. The experiences curated by Faiz really set this place apart: Private Boat Ride & Mangroves: Faiz personally took my family out for an unforgettable boat ride to experience the local mangroves. Floating Restaurant: Dining on the river at the floating restaurant was a superlative experience we will never forget. If you are looking for authentic Kerala hospitality, breathtaking views, and food that will spoil you for life, look no further. We left with full stomachs, happy hearts, and beautiful memories. Highly, highly recommended!

A true homestay, extremely well looked after by the family, with fantastic food. The boat trip in the lagoon and through the mangroves was great. It was our first accommodation in Kerala, and a great introduction. Was also lovely walking round Kadalundi - felt like a celebrity as adults and kids were so friendly and come to speak with us, and asked for selfies! Was only 10 or 15 minutes walk to Kadalundi and the train station, but also easy to get tuk tuks or taxis organised by the helpful hosts.

Tout était tellement top que je suis restée plus longtemps. Quel bonheur d’être reçue dans cette famille adorable. Techniquement, la chambre est super confortable, ainsi que le lit, la sdb . Les extérieurs, le jardin et les hamacs. L’environnement calme, les voisins et le quartier, le bord de l’eau paisible . C’est le paradis. L’étoile supplémentaire revient aux cuisinières qui œuvrent pour moi avec le sourire même pendant le ramadan. Médaille d’or pour les menus délicieux et variés Aïsha et Junu. Et merci aux hommes de la famille pour leur accueil chaleureux et leurs échanges. Médaille d’or Saheer et M.Ali.
