Enjoy a unique and serene vacation on our houseboats and take in scenic views of the backwaters, the coconut groves and rural life along India’s largest freshwater lake, Vembanad.
Imagine a vacation, where all you do, is float on a plush, traditional Kerala houseboat, on calm, gentle waters that take you through some of the most beautiful sights you will ever see in Kerala. You lay back and relax, as the houseboat navigates the smooth waterways, blessing you with views of the lush greenery and incredibly beautiful birds that call Vembanad Lake their home. As you drift on by, you catch glimpses of the rural life of the people in Kerala, going about their day, on the shore. Elevate this unique experience by buying some fresh catch from the vendors on the banks of the lake, that can be served up in style for you to eat, right on the houseboat.
Choose from a variety of packages that suit your convenience – maybe take a day cruise, or stay overnight on one of the luxurious air-conditioned Kettuveloms. Want the best of both worlds? Opt for our “Lake and Land package” that gives you the option of spending time on our premium houseboat, and adding on a relaxing stay at the HLS Lake Palace Alleppey Resort!
Experience the thrill of floating through the backwaters on our 1-bedroom Houseboat. Perfect for small families, couples and especially honeymooners. Take in the lush scenery and stay in our beautiful air-conditioned houseboats, for a unique experience.
Our luxurious 2 Bedroom Houseboats are perfect for larger groups and families. You’ll have the entire houseboat to yourself as you cruise lazily down the water, spending time with your loved ones, and taking in views of the green paddy fields and swaying coconut groves.
Are you ready to experience authentic Malayali cuisine that gives you a glimpse into the life in Kerala? That’s exactly what you’ll get, on our houseboats. Get ready for a spread that will delight your tastebuds, made from delicious local ingredients. Our menus feature marine delights like Fish Vattichathu and the traditional Alleppey Fish Curry. Experience the authentic Malayali flavours that lend themselves to the different dishes we will serve. Depending on what package you choose to book, you’ll be served Snacks, Lunch or Dinner, or a combination of them all on the houseboat.
