My stay at Guestland Homestay was far beyond what I could have imagined – it was a transformative experience. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with a unique hospitality that made me feel at home instantly. The host was attentive to every detail and offered me genuine care, providing valuable tips that enriched my trip in a special way. Thanks to her, I explored incredible places that few people know about and discovered the best the area has to offer. The location of Guestland is excellent, providing easy access to the main attractions as well as those unique, less-known spots. The convenience of being close to everything I needed made my days easier and so much more enjoyable. More than just a place to stay, it was like finding a new family. The host welcomed me with such warmth that it felt like I was among long-time friends. Every conversation and shared moment was memorable, leaving an impression I’ll carry with me. I wholeheartedly recommend Guestland Homestay, and I’ll definitely return to relive this wonderful experience.

We had an excellent stay at Sithara homestay. The helpfulness of the owners was beyond any expectations and the place felt very welcoming. Communication with them was very smooth, and they gladly helped us with advice around the town and within Kerala. They even helped us to arrange very good value homestays in other parts of Kerala and arranged us a wonderful driver for 4 days - Midhun, whom we would highly recommend. In the morning they prepared us a delicious South Indian egg curry and tea. The warmth and friendliness of the owners and of Midhun definitely made our stay in Kerala all that much more enjoyable.

Very good stay at El Casa Homestay. Communication is fluid and the welcome is great. The owners gave us advice on visits to Fort Kochi and were able to organize activities and taxis for us. Very good breakfast and clean and functional room. We were even able to add the initially unwanted air conditioning. Many thanks again. See you soon

Gerard and his wife were great hosts. We arrived early in the morning, around 5am, and they were able to provide us with check in at that time, which was great. The homestay is very clean with comfortable beds.

The most lovely family run this beautiful homestay. Ours hosts could not have been more helpful: they booked a kathakali show for us, organised a taxi to Munnar, helped to change money. The facilities are typical of a home stay but maintained to a very high standard. It is very clean and comfortable. Consistent hot water. Good WiFi. In a safe area. We would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a simple, great value option.

Mr Roy was a great host. We travelled with 4 kids and all of us felt like our own home. Mr Roy helped us to arrange airport transport and auto (tuk tuk) for nearby movements. He also gave lots of suggestions for tour at Fort Cochin and nearby city. Breakfast was good. I am grateful to choose Leelu Homestay.

This homestay was a home away from home. I really enjoyed my time here, very calm and relaxing. Lakshmi is such a lovely host, very helpful and friendly, served delicious Keralan breakfast at a time to suit me. The room was very clean and comfortable with everything I needed, hot water, air conditioning and ceiling fan. Also filtered water available for drinking, plus tea and sugar to help yourself. If I return to Fort Kochi I will book again here.
