Kylash- chef, Bhutan- driver and Annandeep- assistant, looked after us magnificently on Grand Villa 1. We loved our 2 night cruise and the houseboat is lovely. Keerthi, boss, also answered all our questions quickly and kindly arranged a taxi on leaving. paid 1/3 deposit in advance and balance on arrival - no problems. Hope to stay again some day

We stayed for one night in a one bedroom houseboat. The boat itself was lovely, the staff excellent, and the food fantastic. I especially appreciated the company’s service to buy drinks to take on board with you! Not all companies do that. Highly recommend this company to book with. The prices are higher than some others but the service and quality are well worth it.

It was a great experience . The boat was very clean and well prepared. The backwaters were incredibly beautiful. We also bought crab on the way and the chef Anthony was very happy to cook it. Everything was perfect. We had an early flight back and they were nice to call a taxi at a different location so that we reach airport on time

We had a fabulous stay and its our first time in boat house and we din’t find any boat attractive than ours. We will be coming back again and we can’t imagine travelling in another boat than this. They have excellent staff and they took care of us so well. We felt like being in home. Thanks for this awesome experience.

    I spent a very relaxing two nights on the houseboat, spending the first day travelling south and spending the night next to the rice paddy islands, then the second day returning along the other coastline. The food was consistently fantastic, with absolutely massive portions 😅

    The food was amazing. The chef is incredible - best food i have had in the whole India trip. Varied and delicious. Aircon in bedrooms and of an evening in the downstairs lounge, plus aircon in the dining room. Slept like a log. Wonderful relaxing backwater cruise. Highly recommend Grand Villa Houseboat.

    We stayed overnight on the houseboat. The boat itself was very nice. The lounge dining area was particularly good, the bedroom was fine. I wasn’t sure how it would work being the only passengers, but I was relieved that it went well. The crew of three were very professional and helpful and they made it a very pleasurable experience. We particularly enjoyed the food prepared for us.
