Reviews of Munroe Heritage Inn

Very friendly behavior and good freedom

Nothing

Everything. Suresh and his family made us feel like home. Great value for money, new, clean, comfortable beds, excellent breakfast and dinner (home cooked). Located on the riverside. Arranged sunrise canoe 🛶 tour.

Generally lovely family. Very comfortable large bed. Nice and spacious. Little table outside the door. Home cooked food. Near the temple 🛕 and across the road is the riverside for boat tours. Don't forget to say hello to hari, the pub he's super timid and needs love ❤️

There isn't a lot of privacy, and the road can be heard.

Lovely accomodation in a great location. The owner and his family welcome us and provided us with everything we needed.

Not the owners fault but there was a festival going on so loud music being played through speakers.

We had a lovely time at Suresh’s place. He went to every effort to make we sure we had a good time, and arranged competing and biking for us around the island. The food was also delicious and some of the best we’ve had in India!

A lovely family with whom to stay in a relatively new concrete bungalow across the street from the river, where the backwater canoe trip picks you up. Good sized room and bath with excellent hot water. A nice porch on which to eat excellent home-cooked meals for breakfast and dinner (dinner costs extra).

Not a lot of English spoken (wasn't a problem for us but might be for some guests). As is typical of many Indian home stays: can someone please create light switches that correspond to some logic in the room 😉

Great location, lovely host, very kind with great food. We had a great time on Munroe Island ! Thank you

This stay was such a homely experience. When we arrived there were no tuktuks so we messaged Suresh and he drove down on his bike so we were not on our own and arranged a tuktuk for us. Suresh and his wife catered for us specifically to a vegan diet which we found to be very difficult elsewhere on the island, so we never went hungry! Room was perfect and hot water in the shower was a bonus. Also arranged a great canoe tour for us on the backwaters less than a minute walk from the property!

Clean room. They served tasty local breakfast. Good location.

We had a great stay at Munroe Heritage Inn Homestay. Simple but comfortable and clean rooms. Suresh and his family are so hospitable, kind and great fun! The food was lovely and the island itself is great. We wish we stayed longer.

We had a great stay at Munroe Heritage Inn. The owner was very friendly and wanted to make sure that we experienced the best of Munroe Island. The home cooked meals offered are also delicious and great value. Would stay here again!

Fanstastic food, Very friendly service, we felt part of the family. Suresh went above and beyond to make sure we could enjoy our stay on the island. He took us by motorbike, organised a sunrise canoe ride, kayaks and bikes for us as well as a visit to a thread making factory and rickshaws to the train station. When my son left his wallet in the room he organised a courier to have it sent on to our next destination.

Some information on the booking.com website was incorrect (eg there is no kitchenette or pool) but we have informed Suresh and he will check and update his accommodation information.

Suresh and his lovely family made us so welcome. Their homestay is very comfortable, clean and homely in a perfect position by the waterfront. The traditional Keralean natural food adequate and delicious. Unfortunately the unusual untimely  weather conditions caused by the Bay of Bengal Cyclone meant we were unable to do the sunset canoe trip. However, instead Suresh took us to visit a local church in the woods with panoramic views across the lake. He thoughtfully phoned our daughter who had personally arranged everything with Suresh and showed her where we were. The following sunrise canoe cruise was amazing, the highlight of our stay. Lasting 3 hrs along idyllic narrow backwaters to a picturesque lake quietly watching the abundant wildlife amidst lush vegetation whilst enjoying the solitude.  This homestay on Monroe Island is a MUST VISIT to this unspoilt area. Truly breathtaking.

In a great place close to the river and it is very clean. Surrounded by the beautiful garden and walking distance to eating joint - easy to navigate.

We loved our stay here. It is a true home stay in a beautiful locations, seconds away from a picture perfect river where you can admire the tranquility of the place. The host Suresh Babu is a very kind and welcoming man. He is very proud of his heritage and cannot do enough to make you feel at home. He will ensure your stay is comfortable and will cater for all your needs. His wife cooks the most amazing tasty meals, so make sure you eat at the home stay. It is fantastic value for money and would give this stay 100 if we could. I wish we could have stayed longer to take in more this tranquil location and enjoy heartfelt hospitality of the local folks. Suresh organised a memorable canoeing trip for us and helped with transport bookings. We highly recommend staying here. Thank you Suresh for being such a wonderful host.

Nothing. All was perfect.

Owner was soooo gooood

Bike rental facility was not there in town.So actually it's not owner issue

Suresh Babu was a good host. Very kind and helpful.

The best and budget stay in munroe. Suresh uncle, the Homestay owner is very kind and comes in handy if anything needed. The property is in the walkable distance for any activity. I wholeheartedly recommend people to try it.

Suresh and his family were so nice and accommodating. They cooked us breakfast and dinner every day we were there which were so good. We had veg curry the first night and chicken curry the second night. Suresh also organised us a canoeing trip around the backwaters which left from a dock about 10 metres from the Homestay.

Nothing really

The room was spacious and the location is just opposite to the river. Homemade food was really good.
