A stunning Kerala-style home is verified by Vogue Magazine. Embraced by water on three sides, this 10 acre property with four rooms is perfect for families.

Open-air meals in the gazebo by the lake and yoga classes are just two memorable experiences at this luxury home. When describing the home of the Balakrishnans, the word “stunning” seems like an understatement. The homestay is so idyllic that it might be considered the capital of God’s own country.

It is embraced by the Vembanad from three sides and offers unmatched views of the backwaters. The 10-acre property has 4 beautiful guest rooms, which are serene, spacious and each come with their own open air seating area. From two of the rooms one will wake up to a breathtaking sunrise, which will be seen from the bed itself.

For small families, the homestay’s two-bedroom set is the perfect choice. From virtually every section of the home, the view of the backwaters is always in sight. All the bathrooms have charming skylights and luxurious tubs. In the home’s gazebo, one can enjoy an open-air meal, and also indulge in some bird watching.

The home’s divine meals are prepared with Ayurvedic touches by the Host, Sandhya, a former yoga trainer, who has years of experience in the field of spirituality and has frequently hosted members of the Art of Living Foundation.
