Thank you Backwater Retreat team❤❤.

Enjoyed the stay at Backwater Retreat.

An excellent home stay in Aymanam with beautiful river view.   Sitting the long veranda   with a beautiful countryside view watching the flowing river is a very relaxing experience.  Added attraction is the very helpful couple Kurian and Soni who run the homestay.  Soni is an excellent cook and served us delicious Kerala Karimeen fry, traditional Kottayam fish curry and sumptuous break fast, lunch and dinner.  They are ready to take care of your every need.  Thank you Soni and Kurian.

Take a super delux house boat from Kumarakom to Alupuzha, it starts at 12PM, sails in back waters and lakes, Enjoy lush green paddy fields for long stretches, birds fishing, It is extreemly soothing and relaxing, you wont know how time flies,

The boat is anchored at 5PM till next day 7AM,
Very good hospitality tasty food all add to your happyness

Alupuzha house boat

It was really one of the most memorable trip I had with my family. It was the services of Saffron tours that made it so special. We explored the backwaters of Kerala. They guided us so well and planned everything accordingly very perfect. The part they played is really very much appreciable. I can recommend Saffron family for an unforgettable experience.

Wonderful Trip

You will love the peace and comfort in this traditional multistory home, with wraparound balconies and quiet back gardens overlooking a canal.  Your host, Kurian, will receive you gracefully, make you feel at home, and will feed you delicious home cooked meals.   If you wish, Kurian will arrange for a tour with overnight stay in his very comfortable houseboat, where again, you will be fed nicely and sleep very comfortably.  When you are docked for the night, make sure to ask for a local fisherman to take you on a sunset tour on a canoe through the small canals.  It is magic.  And then go get an Ayurvedic massage at the local place.  And then back on the boat, ask the boat captain to arrange for some toddy to drink with your dinner. Or, Kurian can also arrange for an awesome driver (Shekhera) to take you around the area to visit the mosques, churches, temples, and other sights.  And please take long walks around the surrounding country side, through the paddies and country houses, maybe catching an impromptu badminton game, visiting the local primary school, being asked for selfies by all the friendly kids walking home from school, and again, visiting many beautiful churches and temples.  

I loved this house, the surrounding area, and the wonderful peaceful time I had there.  Go.  You'll love it.

Beautiful house, gracious host, great home cooking, and amazing walks

It was really awesome trip, nice and rich stay,  with awesome food. Very good staff. Very good quality stay in a reasonable price. Backwaters, fishing, islands, bird sanctuary and lots more to do. Do visit them if you plan for Kerala, a must visit place.

Awesome experience at backwaters retreat

It is an amazing place to stay with family and friends. The location is really fantastic. They've got friendly and humble staff as well. The place offers recreational activities such as fishing too. The food quality is excellent. Mr Kurian, the proprietor of the resort is also very caring and helpful. I might conclude by saying that this is a must stay place with family & friends.
