Road access also available. Village cycles to roam around the island, come with the house. Kayaking and boat trips through the backwater islands is a must. We are foodies, and have designed a Kerala focused village menu that will take you on a culinary ride through your stay, sampling all the curries, local catch, and snacks of the region. Meals are sent to the house hot and fresh. A fully stocked kitchen is available for those who want to cook. Our staff is super friendly and will help you have a relaxing retreat. Lots of cultural festivals happen through the year, including the famous Theyyam festivals, which is always an adventure to add. Ideally guests come for a minimum of 5-7 nights, to really get into the pace of island village life in the Malabar. For those wanting an Ayurvedic detox, adding a daily massage to the program is idyllic. We have hosted many individuals, couples and families, mostly through word of mouth, and as a new posting on airbnb we would like to continue sharing this special place with like minded folks who cherish good food and good fun.
