Vembanad Island Hotels

It was clean, just need thicker curtains and probably fix the window blinds at the bathroom. Cold shower. Air conditioner. We appreciate the early check in. The door lock also needs fixing it's difficult to lock it. Overall an ok budget accommodation if you don't expect much.

Host and family is very friendly and helpful. Homestay is located in the heart of Fort Kochi so its easy to visit all places around.

It's a very pleasant stay when we went to Thrissur. Mr. Babu is a very kind and humble person who helped us took care of us very well during our stay. The room is very clean, the amenities are great with the food being top class. Overall it's worth what you pay for.

Dec is peak season in Fort Kochi and I had dared to travel there. Had booked Gloria Homestay fingers crossed, hoping they would not cancel. Well, I stayed there, peacefully for three days and now writing a review to recommend it for solo travellers 👍🏻
This is located very near to the Vasco da Gama square, so you can walk to most of the major tourist spots.
The couple running this place are very sweet people. Very helpful too.

Had an excellent stay at Christville Homestay! Warm and welcoming host who sat me down and explained all the different points of interest in the locale and provided me with a great map and itinerary of things to do. The room was excellent value and was neat clean and tidy. This is the perfect location if you’re wanting proximity to everything interesting in fort Kochi! Food, activities and points of interest. I would highly recommend this great location to everyone! A real gem.

Very comfortable and friendly homestay. Spotlessly clean, surrounded by greenery in a quiet spot that's very central and a walk away from the seafront. Preethy could not have been more helpful. The room had two sets of plugpoints, many places to hang things, and a dressing table and stool, with a lovely little shady balcony among the trees to sit out on. Breakfast is extra but worth paying the extra for, as it's generous and tasty. Highly recommended.

We stayed twice here and loved it. The family is super friendly, warm-hearted and helpful and was always there if you needed something. We had a spacious room with a balcony and a private bathroom which offered all you need. There is also a simple kitchen free for use and drinking water is offered. We had a great stay and return for sure. We warmly recommend this place, it has also a great price performance ratio.

A lovely cosy homestay. Neat and clean. Rooms were good, well lit, cross ventilated. Wash rooms were clean. Mosquito nets on doors and windows. Well located and easily reached by cars. Several popular spots are just a short walk away. Mr Daniel and his family were very helpful and extremely warm. If I go to Kochi would surely love to check in again.

We really enjoyed our stay here and only wish it could have c been longer! This is a beautiful heritage property — loaded with stunning antiques and local artwork. The staff were all very good: warm, welcoming, friendly and helpful. We were greeted with delicious welcome drinks & wonderful ice cold cloths — such a welcome reception in the crazy Kochi heat. Our room was clean, spacious and very comfortable.

The Tea Bungalow is well located within easy walking distance of the Fort Cochin area and a short tuk tuk ride from the historic district of Mattamcherry. The room was extremely comfortable. My room had a pleasant outdoor terrace but I heard from other guests that ground floor terraces looked out onto a wall. The service was courteous and friendly but a little chaotic e. G. Not telling me until I was checking out that my laundry bill had to be paid in cash.

A wonderful homestay with Rincy and Anthony as hosts, bananas from the garden, fantastic smoothies for breakfast, great value for money.

1) Perfect location, close to all the famous Spots of Kochi, walking distance.
2) more than perfect host. The couple was Kind, humble, caring and more than a family.
3) perfect place for someone who loves nature. They have more than 10 different types of fruit trees, which I found quiet cool.
4) I had Healthy and Hygienic food.
5) Very clean and Hygienic place.
6) I would only stay with them whenever I am going to come next.

Phil's Residency is more like a serviced apartment. The reception staff was hospitable and the property manager was very helpful during my stay for three nights.
What I liked:
*Good location.
*Ample parking space for 5-6 cars.
*Overall cleanliness is great.
*Air-conditioning.
There are however a couple of things I was a bit disappointed with:
Although I booked a twin-room apartment via goibibo, I felt the size of the apartment was really tiny.

Value for money liked the way the organised and above all homely feel.

They went out of their way to make us comfortable and the breakfast was amazing with a traditional Keralite dish. A simple, genuine old couple who put the customers before making money. Icing on the cake is the complimentary yoga and meditation classes.

Helpfull and friendly owners, quiet and intime small rooms with mosquito screens. A good price for a confortable bed and very good food make with love by the owner's wife.

Good rooms Good location.

One of the best homestays I ever stayed in. Everything is just perfect. In our 2 weeks of travel we stayed twice there because we liked it so much.
