I had a walk into the... More

Accommodation is in the charming old family house which is typical of Kerala. It is in its own grounds beside the backwater lake.

Stayed here with my girlfriend and it was in short - awesome. A great place with an awesome view and an amazing host to go along with it. There's not a lot to do around here but it's a really nice place to chill at. In short, it was the best homestay I've stayed at.

Vembanad House was really the best place during our Kerala Travel! The place and the garden at the lakeside, the house and Food were the best expierience of our trip. One should stay longer there; the nearby village gives more interesting impressions of life in Kerala. Small Homestay with best Value!!!
