The owner made us most welcome and was a good source of knowledge about Kochi. The garden with its hammocks made for a perfect afternoon away from the noise of the city too. Best of all were the tasty Keralan breakfasts lovingly prepared by the hosts! This homestay doesn't offer western style comforts but this is reflected in the good price, and the opportunity to experience life as it is lived by the locals.

Home from home on the waterside

I am late in reviewing this homestay. For some reasons, it got postponed. But nonetheless, I feel I should provide my viewpoints of our visit to this wonderful place right on the backwaters of Kochi. 
Kumbalangi is a model village as far as I know, developed keeping nature tourism in mind. West Windz is one of the two homestays you will find there. I am glad that I selected Mr.Jojo's place for my stay there for two nights with my wife and mother-in-law. 
We booked the entire place ( having only two rooms, a verandah and a dining space) since I wanted maximum privacy and I am glad I did that. Mr. Jojo did provide some discount for me. 
The homestay is ideally situated on the banks of the backwaters of Kochi, facing west. Throughout the day you will be greeted with gentle breeze. Add to that , the shades of the many coconut trees, couple of swings , couple of bamboo relax chairs, a cup of coffee - you get what you came for. Mr. Jojo and his family are wonderful host. They will make things easy and comfortable for you. Mr.Jojo is a knowledgeable person, very easy going and will try his best to make you feel at home. Please do not be put off by negative review I saw earlier. We have spent two whole days there and we have returned back completely satisfied. As a parting gift, Mr. Jojo has given us couple of pomelos from his garden. 
He arranged for an evening boat ride across the huge backwater. He also let me row his kayak on the backwater without any hesitation. The food cooked for us was excellent by any standard. The quantity was pretty huge as per our appetite. He would provide breakfast as complementary and you can have dinner there. Mostly , he would not provide lunch, as making this arrangement is difficult for him and most of the tourists do stay out of the room during that time.
Mosquitoes are common in Kerala but the house is well screened. You just have to be inside the house after dark. Sometimes, I would just go and sit on the bamboo chairs next to the water and enjoy the silent darkness in front of me.
We have nothing to complain about this place but only have heartfelt praises for Mr. Jojo, his family and the homestay. Do visit and stay there when you can. 
Do book directly with him, he has a website and phone number to communicate.
Go there with a open mind, relax and enjoy your stay.

An excellent homestay in Kumbalangi

We stayed one night in this lovely homestay on the backwaters. We were able to relax very well and enjoy our time there. We did kayaking and also catamaran boating which was fantastic. Jojo's family then cooked a very nice breakfast the next day. The rooms were good with nice sitouts to relax. Jojo was helpful whatever we asked and was a hospitable and good at conversations. We highly recommend this place.

Lovely homestay with fantastic views

It was a short and sweet tour to Cochin. I surfed on the net based on the ratings and availability of Home stays at Cochin. I have booked this property finally after talking to Mr.Paul.The prpoerty is just at the back waters.The two night stay was very nice. The whole family of Mr.paul have taken care of us very well. The break fast was yummy with traditional kerala style (appam and strew on 1st day and Idiyappam, mutta kari , cocount milk on the second day). He also arranged a country boat for our ride in the evening  till sunset.Though the home stay is away from the main city, it provides all the calm , quiet atmosphere for those who wants to be with the nature.
