General
Wake up to panoramic views when you stay in the Tranquil Houseboat on Alleppy Backwaters, your gateway to ultimate bliss.
Alleppy, one of the most-visited tourist destinations in Kerala, is rightfully called the Venice of the East. The network of canals that feed the backwaters creates a watery maze all across this laidback city. While the city center in Alleppy is constantly bustling with activity, the placid backwaters promise a tranquilizing effect. The palm trees lined along the backwaters sway rhythmically to the breeze that cools the humid tropical air, adding to the soothing effect of a trip to this part of God’s own country. A stay at the Tranquil Houseboat on Alleppy Backwaters is all you need to get the best of the rustic lagoons.
Any visit to Kerala is incomplete without spending some time cruising in the popular backwaters. The Tranquil Houseboat on Alleppy Backwaters makes that a double treat. Not only do you get to witness the scenic vistas, but you also get to experience the luxury of staying in a well-appointed houseboat. Evenings here are a display of colors when pink and orange are splayed across the sky. Kingfishers and cormorants add more color to the landscape. Adding to the perfect backwater experience is the fresh seafood you’ll find here in abundance. The houseboats themselves are things of beauty. They are hand-built by local craftsmen using wood from local jackfruit trees and coir made from coconut fiber. The houseboat serves its guests delectable Kerala cuisine, which is not only a feast for your taste buds but for all your senses! The food is prepared on the houseboat by the expert crew. This is your chance to taste the authentic flavors of the region, especially the local favorite pearl spot, a freshwater fish.
The Tranquil Houseboat on Alleppy Backwaters has a fleet of 10 traditional houseboats, each one promising luxurious accommodation to its guests. All the boats have one, two, or three bedrooms, ensuite bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and an open living area with a viewing deck. The bedrooms are air-conditioned and feature a picture window for you to soak in the picturesque views. The natural thatch roofing canopy of the houseboats gives them a traditional look of elegance. The houseboats are well-furnished with attention to detail and are equipped with all the modern comforts to ensure a comfortable stay. The plush furnishings and upholstery give the interiors a lavish look. To maintain the tranquillity of your backwater experience, there are no televisions in any of the houseboats. Whether you want to spend some happy moments with your family, some fun-filled moments with your friends or a couple of days all for yourself, this indeed is the place to be.
