Holiday houses in Chengalam South

perfect place for home stay and the staffs were too friendly. Felt like home away from home

If you're looking for a cheap getaway and merge with nature, this place is for you. Mind you the house is small, but the environment makes up for the quaint little place. We felt one with nature and got to experience a vintage era. Overall it was a refreshing and mesmerizing experience.

Another fantastic stay at Sara's Riverview! The house is spacious and beautifully done! A large courtyard surrounded by greenery! All amenities for a long stay are provided for. The host Saiju and his brother Biju are one of the best! We love frequenting this homestay!!!

we had a great experience

Our houseboat stay in Charlotte Cruise was a wonderful experience. The highlight was the incredible food, the crew cooked delicious meals using the fresh ingredients we bought from the market. The sunset cruise was also a memorable moment, made even better with a glass of wine as we enjoyed the peaceful backwaters. The route was decent, offering scenic views. However, there was an issue with the air conditioning in our room. It caused a delay in our check-in, and at night, the AC kept turning on and off, making it hard to sleep. We truly appreciate the staff’s efforts, they were attentive and did their best to fix it, even manually adjusting the power at 1 AM. Thankfully, there was a fan to help. Despite this, we had a great stay. The hospitality of the crew made all the difference, and their service ensured we still enjoyed our time on the boat.

Absolutely loved Vishnus place. Was quiet and peaceful and the location next to temple is amazing. Loved the sound of the chanting everyday. I had space to do my yoga on the roof at sunrise. The area is very sweet and free from tourists. I cycled everywhere - its all flat. Great little beaches, bought fish from the fish market on one beach. The kitchen has all you need. Theres a municipal swimming pool in the village. Local buses are brilliant to get around - bus stop at the mango tree opp temple. Went to cinemas in Cherthala, Kottayam and Kochin. Local train was great for Kochi. Cycled to different restaurants daily - Apsara was a favourite, had THE best parothas. Vishnu is such a lovely man. He was always there to ask anything, replied straight away to questions asked via whats app and we also treated ourselves to a pranic healing from him. AMAZING. I'd love to go back and am sure tge area will never change. Enjoy xxx

Peaceful stay.. perfect way for me to welcome 2025! Its a beautiful 2 bedroom space with a coomon room n spacious verandah towards the backside of the home. There is also backwaters behind the house which makes for perfect early mornings n evenings. The best time i spent was early mornings by the backwaters - could see flock of ducks pass by, locals taking boats going to their destinations, and the beautiful sunrise hitting the waters - just gorgeous! Jeffin was amazing - very responsive, helpful, and the complimentary breakfast provided was yummy Kerala style. Thank you for all the help during the stay. If you are looking for a serene place with calming vibes and gorgeous tropical climate then please book a stay.

a perfect place for our office anniversary trip. we had a great time with such a great ambience and the availability of outdoor sports made it a fun day. the sunset cruise was beautiful and special thanks to Sebin the caretaker for carrying one of our colleagues, who had a cast on his leg, to and from the boat. overall highly recommend this place for a fun, intimate gathering.

Jason and his mother Daisy had been wonderful. Although Daisy is a quiet person she receives her guests with a great smile and there was a good interaction. Please ask if you need something. The place is not too far from boating and other places of interest like the Birds sanctuary etc...Everything went well during our stay. I recommend highly. Jayaraman
