The host Noel and his family are very cooperative and helpful. They provided us a very delicious dinner and breakfast. The private beach is really beautiful. Noel is a wonderful person and his father, mother and grandmother were always ready to fulfill our needs during our stay with them. Thanks Noel for your warm hospitality. We really wish to stay there again 🙏🙏

Nothing. They can make it better if they build a covered shover outside the stay

Noel was wonderful. He took such good care of us. His family was very accommodating and friendly. The place was clean and cozy. It was lovely to see the ocean from our balcony. The breakfast was delicious. Noel even helped us the day after we stayed at his place because we had trouble finding a reliable cab. We were so thankful that he arranged it and helped us the whole time we were in Kerala. We would definitely stay here again!

The mattress was firm and I unfortunately need a slightly softer mattress, but otherwise the space was comfortable!

AC in the room. Large bathroom.

1) This homestay is not on beach.....it is 1 row behind the beach line....got misled with description. There are other homestays available in the actual beach facing side. Shower is not connected for hot water. Hot water comes only through tap for bath with bucket-mug. Visible crawling ants on stairs and in room.

While I did not get to stay here as it was accidentally overbooked, Noel went above and beyond to find a room a couple of doors down the road, equally as convenient and spectacularly backing onto the private beach. Noel kept in touch for the 2 days prior to our arrival to ensure our travels were safe and kept asking if we needed help with anything. His enthusiasm for helping was incredibly helpful and reassuring. We ended up catching a taxi (a supposed 3 hour drive turned 51/2 hour drive) and Noel even met us at his beach house to escort us to the one he booked for us. He took care of all our tuk tuk needs, timing for transport and advice for our next leg. As two females travelling with little experience on our own in India, he was a lifeline with great communication skills. Be prepared that there are no tuk tuks driving past - it is a little bit out of the way so a tuk tuk needed to be called/booked. It only took 5-10 mins to get into the heart of town (anywhere from 100 to 200 rupee) and the houseboat dock so it wasn't a problem at all but certainly a nice quiet escape from the prior experiences of unlimited tuk tuk offers that we assumed would still be there.

It was a shame we didn't get to stay and take him up on his offer to have his mom show us how to cook a local dish, but like a lot of travel in India (but not all!), the travel took longer than expected and ate into our allocated time for that. Noel looks to be building a one stop shop for a lot of activities in the area so I look forward to following his progress and aim to stay again next time.

Ambience, staff behaviour

My stay at the homestay was absolutely fantastic! The location was ideal, and what made it truly special was the owner and their family. They treated us like part of their own family, taking care of us with genuine warmth and hospitality. The accommodations were comfortable, and the overall experience felt like a home away from home. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a welcoming and personal touch during their travels. Thank you for a remarkable stay!

Hmmm.. Nothing....
