At a Glance

Taamara is lovely homestay located right on the water’s edge. Two over-water cottages offer luxury accommodation, while the home-cooked meals provide an unforgettable backwater experience. As you drive into the home’s premises, you’re welcomed by a lotus pond in full bloom and its smiling owners, waiting with a pink lotus to gift you. Taamara is the 100-year-old home of Mr Babu, an award-winning filmmaker and his gracious wife, Nirmala.

Taamara’s refreshing ambience is enhanced by the fact that only a fraction of the property is covered. Most of the home flaunts lush green landscapes, vivacious flower-bearing plants and bright sunlight. The home has two uber-chic cottages that are perched upon the Vembanad Lake and share a dazzling deck.

At Taamara, whether you’re relaxing in your room, reading on the balcony or dining on the deck, the lake is always in sight. And even under your feet. These cottages have an air of exclusivity but are warm and soothing at the same time.

Since Alleppey faces the East, you’ll wake up to a picturesque sunrise that fills your room with a pink and orange glow. The home lends a beautiful view of Kumarakom, which in the evening turns into a hypnotic light show.
