Spice Coast Cruises - Houseboat, A CGH Earth Experience

Very private, with a beautiful location. You’re given plenty of time to relax alone and the staff are always on hand to help. The staff also have great knowledge of local wildlife and can point out birds on route.

The bed wasn’t very comfortable as it’s two single mattresses next to each other with a gap between them. This really should be changed to one double mattress. The hot water is very limited meaning the shower goes cold fast.

Wonderful boat (the nicest we saw on the backwaters) and the best crew. Rooms were cosy both en suite. Food was wonderful and plentiful. Very knowledgeable captain who pointed out all the sights and birds on the way. Also loved the canoe trip exploring the smaller river ways.

We like everything, if there was one thing to maybe improve the accommodation would be to add a comfortable chair or two in the main area. If it’s raining then the outdoor lounging area is brought in and a comfy indoor chair would be a nice addition. (We had a rainy couple of days!)

I liked the eco friendly decor, the friendly staff, fresh meals, and the whole experience

There wasn’t really anything O didn’t like. It’s an expensive stay - but it is exclusive.

Staff and food were amazing Great experience

Alcohol/beer to be included in the price and to have a stock on the boat, we didn't know how many beers we would want in the morning when we arrived and ended up only having one bottle, but that's only a small issue Maybe some more board games?

Thank you for a wonderful time. Great experience that we will not forget. very peaceful, calm and relaxing on the boat. The backwaters are amazing. The boat was nice and clean and great air conditioning in the bedroom. Great staft - Kind, friendly, attentive. Loved the food thank you - lots of it and great to taste the Kerala food. Catered for vegetarian as well as meat/fish eaters. Santosh, Praveen + Davit looked after us so well - we willnot forget this!

Not that we didn’t like but the bathroom was a bit outdated.

Everything was absolutely perfect. I felt like a princess from the moment I stepped on the boat. The decoration is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the staff is friendly and caring. Kerala backwaters ate beautiful!

Incredibly comfortable boat. Staff went over and above. Food incredible.

Nothing!

The staff were excellent and looked after us really well. They arranged WiFi on board for us and even stopped off to buy us some wine to drink with our meal on our last night. We saw some amazing birds and learned a lot of interesting facts about the Backwaters. The food was delicious and we didn’t have the same dish twice. We even ate traditional Keralan festival food. We had a boat to ourselves and were very lucky with the weather. It was a relaxing time. We felt really sad to leave.

Nothing

Food was fantastic, some of the bet meals we ate in India. Beds were very comfy, staff great

We took the 1 night route, it felt as though there may be some nicer areas to sail on rather than the route we took. We arrived back at the overnight park up spot quite early so it felt as though we spent a lot of time moored up there when we could have had more time out on the water
