We were happy to leave Ft Kochi and arrive at Babu's homestay. The food was amazing, homestyle cooking (veg or non-veg), lodging was clean and Babu is a lovely host. Azheekan's is a great place to bring kids. We went for a spin in the boat and friendly local residents helped us navegate the current out to the sea. People... More

This homestay is a lovely rebuilded old house located in the backwaters near Allepey. Babu (the owner) and Minni (the chef) offer fantastic service, are very friendly and helpful: if you have for example a mosquito-bite, Minni goes to a plant, rubs the leaves and puts it on the bite – and it doesn´t itch anymore! You can go to... More

Our four days in Alappuzha made for an interesting travel experience, thanks to the Azheekans. This humble family gave us a warm welcome and made our stay very comfortable. The food was fantastic and was served with so much love. Bejorn and Bryan are the cutest kids and being around them brought such joy to our days. Fammy also shared... More

My wife and I stayed with Bruce and Babu for three wonderful nights over New Years and enjoyed every second of it. The location is perfect and wonderfully peaceful, you get a real sense of the local community and the pace of village life. Just a beautiful 10 min stroll to an amazing beach. The rooms are very clean and... More

Just spent three nights there over New Year, nothing but amazing from start to finish. The location and home is really cool and amazing to retreat to if you've been travelling around, its calm and serene. The food is simply unparalleled, eat when you like and even ask for what you want, all fresh and made with care in the... More

Staying with Bruce Babu was the most relaxing part of our trip to India. His hospitality was amazing but still understated; I really did feel like I was staying with a very generous relative. He provides all your meals (these alone are a reason to stay, amazing food!), helps organise outings and can even organise massages. But still allows your... More

Myself and partner stayed at Azheekans Homestay and were treated to the amazing hospitality from Babu, his family and staff. The rooms are exceptionally clean and nicely decorated. The house is in a tranquil spot 20km from alleppey. Had we known how easy it would be to alleppey we would have stayed longer and used Azheekans home as a base... More

My daughter and I spent two lovely quiet nights here, complete with excellent food, friendly host and staff, and great location. The beach is just a short walk away, and the village is fun to stroll around. After two months in Mumbai, it was blissfully peaceful and green. We enjoyed sitting by the river watching the birds at sunrise and... More

We recommend a lot Azheekans Home Stay!!! It’s a really fantastic place to go on holidays. Ideal to enjoy, relax and isolate oneself. The place is wonderful: the backwater, the forest, the Marari Beach,... Although, the best thing are the people: Babo and everyone who works there are attentive and really Kind. Don’t miss it if you go to Kerala.
