I loved the tranquility and humble beauty of this home stay. It's tucked in the suburban area of Kottayam so make sure you have Priya's mobile number on you so that she can direct your driver to the home. Priya wasn't in Kottayam when my family and I stayed there but her mother was looking after us. We were able... More

The hospitality at this homestay was exceptional. From the moment I arrived in the middle of the night, and was met by Priya and her gracious mother, I was in paradise! Clean home, pretty garden, coffee on the porch with my newspaper, outstanding Kerala food served three times a day, and many many kindnesses. Priya will suggest and arrange outings,... More

We stayed for a very short time (just a few hours) at Kanjirakkattu, but it made a lasting impact on us. I was looking for a day tour on our last day in Kerala, and I posted the query here on TA forum. Priya (the owner) replied promptly and fixed me a trip to the Poonjar hills, complete with lunch...

Wonderful hospitality and lovely food. Pachu and his grandma really made us feel at home. They made us feel at home (they even arranged a car for us to take us to train station at 2 am!) A beautiful family, thanks!

This was a wonderful three night stay in a lovely quiet house with a lovely family. The food was unbelievably good, with fresh fruit juices, salad and Keralan food. We loved hearing about Pachu's school day and so much enjoyed Priya's warm welcome and companionship. I certainly hope that someday I can go back.
