Featuring river views, Riverrootsstays provides accommodation with patio, around 45 km from Varkala Cliff. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The homestay features family rooms. Karun is a great host who goes above and beyond for his guests. He even kept me company as I was the only guest at the moment, so I would not feel alone! The location is nice, close to the train station, small grocery shops and a restaurant. The bed was very comfortable. While I only stayed one night, I would definitely come back.

At the homestay, units are equipped with a desk. Every unit is fitted with a kettle, a private bathroom and free WiFi, while certain rooms have a balcony and some have garden views. At the homestay, each unit includes bed linen and towels. This 8-room inn was recently newly built, and my room was very clean and well-appointed. It’s in a good location in Fort Kochi, close to major sights. The couple that runs the inn were exceptionally welcoming and kind to me, and were very responsive over WhatsApp and in person. They helped me arrange an airport pickup, accommodated a late-night check-in, and booked for me at my request tickets to a Kathakali show and backwaters day trip (which was exceptional) and made all the logistics of my stay very easy. This was easily one of the best places I’ve stayed on my month-long trip to India.

Free WiFi is available throughout the property and Kollam Railway Station is 24 km away. Vijash and his family run this Fabulous homestay on Munroe island. We had a lovely big a/c room with private bathroom. There is a communal area where meals are served and/or just to chill with hammocks and comfy chairs. We went on the early evening sunset canoe trip - amazing just floating down the canals. Also got up at 5:00am for the sunrise canoe trip, spectacular. The food, wow... Absolutely delicious take on South Indian cuisine I can safely say that these was the best meals I've had in Kerala. Highly recommend this homestay.
