Sejour de reve dans les Backwaters. Lieu feerique et calme absolu. Bateau tres agreable, service attentionne et excellent cuisinier (merci Rajesh !). Je conseille fortement de rester deux nuits car la deuxieme journee est de loin la plus paisible et agreable .

I had to pay more to buy prawns. It was in my mind to the amount I paid for a night , seafood like prawns would be included atleast for 1 meal.

Fantastic experience. Crew was extremely caring and helpful. The chef on board was exceptional, by far the best food we had in Kerala. They arranged kayak for us and made our stay unique.
There can be some loud music playing around docking areas due to wedding and parties

nothing in particular but it wasn’t the boat that we booked and this boat was set up for day trips and not for overnight stays.
the staff did their best and the food was very good.
not what we booked or even with the company we booked with. the boat didn’t have comfortable outdoor seating. we booked a luxury cruise on a 2 bedroom boat shown on the website but what we got was a boat for large groups set up for a day trip - no luxury at all

Absolutely unforgettable experience, extremely relaxing and peaceful. Great way to see a new side of Kerala and India from different perspective. The chef onboard was excellent - cooked very lovely dishes. All staff onboard were friendly and polite.

Staff on the boat was amazing!
Bed was not comfortable at all.
7.0
Food was great and the bedroom was very comfortable and exceeded expectations.
The boat could have used better outdoor viewing space as you have chair in the middle of the deck rather than an upper deck so it's not as good for relaxing as it could have been. There were no games or deck of cards so the there isn't much in the way of evening entertainment unless you bring it yourselves.

Professional approach by team and food was great. They did a perfect job and polite trained staff with wow customer service!
10.0
Food was great and the service was excellent. Beautiful experience. We enjoyed the trip very much.
There was some smell of diesel I think coming from the generator which polluted the fresh air in the boat. Otherwise everything was in order.

Best house boat experience...
9.0
Food was very delicious. Would have liked bit of more variety though. Staff was very polite and room was good.
I did not like staying the night harboured in isolated place. Would have been better if we have anchored bit away from coast. Little more variety in menu would have been better.
9.6
Magnificent stay at the houseboat of Xandari.

Food excellent, service friendly and discreet, very peaceful trip. Really enjoyed the smaller boat trip along the back canals.
8.8
The food was superb. The boat was very nice and the staff excellent.
For the price, being one of the more expensive house boats, the interior could have been a tiny bit better, but it really didn’t change the amazing overall experience - it’s still a lovely boat.
9.2
Amazing boat, with friendly staff and great food onboard. It's a MUST is Kerala, and I would definetly recommend Xandari Riverscapes
The room had a strong smell, like it was closed for a long time.
