The host family was very nice and the place has a lovely terrace. The home-made Kerala food was great! Location is convenient to the center of town and all activities. Thank you!

This Homestay is being run by Jobin and his family. Location is really great. We had booked for boating, elephant ride and Kalari show - all of which were within 1km radius. Room was big enough for our 3 adults 1 child group even with an additional mattres. Although they don't provide breakfast or dinner, family was courteous enough to cook south Indian breakfast on our request on the day of Dusshera. Overall, a great stay and recommendable.

The hosts are wonderful people. The hostess welcomed us with a beautiful smile. The host Jobin helped in preparing a plan of travel around kumily for us with smile and that was more than we hoped for. The cardomom tea he prepared for us in the morning was extraordinary. I recommend this completely.

The family were lovely, very friendly and went out of their way to help us. The breakfast was delicious and the banana and coconut pancakes were a real treat. Our room had a little veranda surrounded by a beautiful little garden were we could sit and watch birds and butterflies.

Host Review Score
A Homestay with three Good sized and clean rooms in a family atmosphere. Hardly 500 metres from the bus station and less than one km from the Periyar Wild Life Sanctury.
We are local family who since mid-2015 have been inviting tourists to experience our homestay.You can enjoy the real feel of a home stay with us. we do some cooking classes,yoga sessions for our guests if you are interested.
One of the biggest and beautiful Wild Life sanctury in the world PERIYAR is walkable distance from our Home stay. Close to th main market but really calm and silent area. For breakfast we are here but for lunch or dinner the best hotels in the village is hardly 100 meters from our property. The stay with us will make you happy and it wont be strange experience but a special one.
