The Houseboats of Kerala are giant country crafts. Once they ruled the backwaters, heavily loaded with rice, coconut and other commodities. But in the recent times, the kettuvalloms have been replaced by other modern modes of transport, leaving them to neglect and decay. Houseboats today are a familiar sight in Kerala with Alleppey alone supporting around 150 Houseboats on its backwaters. |

Kerala’s Kettuvalloms are very famous and are also known as ‘Knot-boats’ because of their unique feature of using only coir knots to bind wooden planks together without using even a single nail. Coir knots hold this Kerala Houseboat together. Modern Houseboats offer all the luxuries of a five star hotel. From furnished bedrooms to modern toilets, cozy living rooms to even a balcony. |
