In today’s busy life style, we are constantly on the look out for a quiet place during vacation where we get to spend some quality time with our near and dear ones in a beautiful, relaxing and refreshing ambience. Your search ends here at the house boats. An intricate network of lagoons, lakes, rivers, backwaters and beaches, the picturesque landscape of Kerala offers a fabulous cruise that would rejuvenate you.

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 But in the recent times, the kettuvalloms have been replaced by other modern modes of transport, leaving them to neglect and decay.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.
