This place is like a hidden treasure of Kerala. Managed by CGH this is also one of smallest resort they manage. Note more than 10 cottages I guess or may be less as well. Experience is completely personal. you can ask chef what you want to eat and food is not exceptional but fine. Main thing is location. You need to reach there by boat and its like completely disconnected from world. You have falls and river right next where you can play and have fun. Fishing is another big attraction. Overall nice place if you need some peace.

Really Quiet.

Have loved every CGH resort I’ve been to and this little place in the mid of the forest is so peaceful. Staff is super friendly to make your stay that much more comfortable. Thank you, Mr. Girish and your boys. You made us feel like family in the 2 days that we stayed with you. Memorable trip!!

Beautiful place. Amazing staff. Lovely food. 

Idyllic, serene and wonderful, Quiet by the river is a must visit. Wonderful place and extraordinary hospitality by Girish, Manu and team. The Periyar is majestic across the rocks and we were so lucky to see spotted deer and a whole family of elephants across the river. The food was also wonderful. Worth every penny.

Don't miss it

Very nice place with good pollution free ambience but not very far from cochin.Kids enjoyed the river and resort pool equally.We spotted some wild elephants on the way to resort.Staff and service was exceptional. Always prompt.Special mention to Manu Varghese who took us for a small boat ride and trekking around the resort.Food was excellent by chef Mathews.Overall a very nice experience we enjoyed it thoroughly.

“The Location And Vibe Of The Place Is Amazing. Away From The Noise And Hassle Of The City.”

Hidden away from the bustle of the city and the nagging mobile towers . It's an offroader's delight to the banks of the Periyar , from where the property lies a silent boat ride away . It's serene , it's neat , it's mouthwatering and it's seductive . The tranquil proved Joshua's words true . To enjoy a Roll's , it's not enough to be seated , the chauffeuring should equal it . The staff are an asset . Mr Girish , Mr Manu , Mr Mathews , Mr Punilal , Mr Binod are the names that remain etched in memory . Their acts of hospitality challenge the heavier degrees in the industry . With the CGH genes , I expect the team to excel further . The stay is one to be cherished ... all moments of poetry . Thank you !

" Life is filled with moments of poetry " - Joshua Newton

This is an amazing boutique hotel which should never be missed if one is coming to We were blown away by the picture postcard views and the hospitality provided . The food served was organic and delicious and the setting is effortless as the nature does the talking . Can’t wait to go back . Well done cgh earth . 

Heaven on Earth 

We left our driver and transferred with our luggage into a jeep for a short drive along a forest track.  We then walked down a slope to an awaiting canoe (whilst two young men carried our 3 heavy suitcases).  Ten minutes later we had crossed the river (felt more like a lake) and there was Girish to welcome us onto his island.  After some formalities we were shown to our delightful cottage (Grand View – definitely the room to go for).  For the next two days we were pampered by the excellent staff of this most very special place – and fed by the most accomplished chef, Matthew.  We were visited by elephants one evening after dinner (so kind of them to wait until we had finished eating) when Girish had to persuade some guests that it was not wise to try to feed bananas to wild elephants!  A wonderful place surrounded by the Periyar River.

Secluded & Magical.

A location that truly lives up to its name. Excellent service which always carries a smile and nothing is too much trouble. Girlish Kumar and his staff run an excellent this secluded island location on the Periyar River - Mathew, the chef, was very creative with his use of local produce. Elephants also visited while we were there. My wife and I had very comfortable, enjoyable and relaxing 2 days at Quiet by the River. An improvement would be some refurbishment and updating.

Peace and QUIET by the RIVER

My husband and I spent two utterly relaxing days at Quiet by the River, resting, watching the world go by, eating marvelous authentic Kerala food, and hiking in the forest. The chef, Matthew, cooks with skill and so much flavor. Nothing is compromised or turned down — the spice level is what it should be. The General Manager and Naturalist, Girish, introduced us to the flora and fauna of the forest. His knowledge runs deep, and we appreciated his expertise. The cottages are quite comfortable, the staff is attentive and kind, and the surroundings are stupendous. Thank you for the visit of a lifetime.

Peaceful, Comfortable, and Delicious!

Simply stunning island in a river location, with four stone cottages built for the view, and food to fill the heart as well as the stomach.  This is a magical place managed by the wonderful Girish Kumar.  We stayed two days.  Any longer and time would have drifted away into the depth of the surrounding forest and rushing Piriyar River. Each meals was served in a different location, each showing off how simple can showcase the nature's complexity.  On walks and boat trips we were at nature's pleasure.  Superb experience.
