A vacation in a house boat – a simply unique and memorable experience. The house boats are like luxury hotels set afloat. As you drift on the backwaters of Kerala, you will find yourself being enchanted by the exquisitely beautiful sceneries around you.

The House boats themselves are converted Kettuvallams. Kettuvallams were used as the main mode of transport for ferrying tons of rice and spices from the inner isolated villages to the towns and cities. Now renovated and giving all the comforts of a luxury hotel, these Kettuvallams rule the tourism industry of the Backwaters in Kerala.

Made without a single nail by tying together planks of wood with coir ropes, these Kettuvallams are very strong and last for generations together. As you glide through the waters in these Kettuvallams you feel refreshed by the fresh air.

These house boats are available to cater to every requirement of the tourists. With one bedroom house boats, you are fully free to stop any where and can have the run of the whole house boat.

The crew consists of three members – two oars men and a professional cook. The cook backs up as a guide as well. To have a party just link together two and more house boats to form a boat train.
