The serene beautiful backwaters of Alappuzha. Kerala and the floating Houseboats.

There can be nothing more idyllic that to spend a lazy day in the houseboat getting treated to beautiful sights and gorging on some fresh catch.
Only one word ! - experience it !
you will want yourself to chase sunsets and sunrise all your life.

Lovely location amongst lush green gardens. Staff were great, especially the restaurant team, who made us feel at home. Loved afternoon tea, watching the sunset at the lakeside. Trips from the hotel are pricey, but we walked to the bridge and jumped on boats to explore the lake and backwaters.
