Even if only for a few days, Maliyakal Homestay truly felt like a ‘home away from home’. The hosts, Mr Sanal & Mrs Selvi, are amazing people, welcoming and always keen to ensure the stay is going well. The room itself was great; spotlessly clean, A/C and with a comfy mattress, which isn’t always the case in India. There is also a desk in case you need to work remotely. The en-suite bathroom was equipped with power shower and spotless. I declined the dinner option during my stay however I had breakfast every day and it gave me the possibility to taste real Kerala food, freshly made and enjoy seasonal fruits too. Full access is also provided to the upstairs kitchen and coffee/tea making facilities are available. The house also has a typical Kerala style terrace which was the ideal spot to enjoy coffees and read, surrounded by luscious trees. As for the location, the house is set in a small, quaint village. It is very quiet and it’s the ideal spot to get away from the chaos for a few days. I had the chance to explore some of the nearby beaches, villages and interact with many of the locals (thanks also to Mr Sanal who took the time to share advice and also show me around). He is very knowledgeable and truly passionate about sharing information about the area and Kerala culture in general. He is also a certified tour guide. Overall I had an amazing experience and I will definitely go back during my next trip to Kerala. Highly recommended. Grazie mille :)

The room was very comfortable and clean, but what made the stay memorable were the hosts. They are so kind, so accommodating and very helpful, and always smiling and willing to help. Joseph took us on a lovely boat ride at dawn, followed by a discovery of Kochi. Later that day they both took me shopping for a beautiful saree and helped to get the blouse sown for me. Also they were brilliant with organising cars for us to go to another town and the homecooked food was just delicious.

    What a fantastic stay, the family are so nice and helpful, the mother of the house makes a traditional Kerala breakfast each morning, something different, and we also have an evening meal which was Kerala's traditional fish, the food was exceptional, restaurant quality. The location is fantastic, quiet and close to the local town. The room was very clean, modern and beautiful. The best thing about this stay was the hosts, they were just lovely. I would highly recommend taking the homestays private boat trip down the canals.

    The place is very neat and looks very elegant and it’s near Lu Lu Mall which is in walkable distance. They have laundry facilities which comes in handy. Only thing is we did not get the bigger room with the kitchen, you can try booking the room with the kitchen it would be very good. Otherwise the place is a really good homestay.😀
