Casa Feliz

Very neat and at a location near to 500m from beach

Wifi signal wasn't good at the room

5 star stay! I had a great time staying here because the room was comfortable and the hospitality of the grandfather and grandmother at the house were courteous, especially the grandmother who is very hospital to me. It's a very close to the harbor and I get to enjoy evening night out in the area to watch the sea. Even though there's hot water in the bathroom but unfortunately it really is ever hot but mostly cold, due to them having no normal water heater but a tiny one, which does not allow hot water to actually come through. As a result, the shower is mostly cold. Other than this imperfection, everything else was very homey. And even though there's no electrical water heater in the room, they have no issues of bringing me a flask a water bottle for the day. Accommodating, clean and a home-y experience. There is a tiny hiccup at the end that is the payment issue. Because the website has shown me my due exactly and when I paid exactly as per the receipt , they had asked for more monies from me. Apparently there are two prices shown to me and the host from the website that led to a small misunderstanding. It's resolved in the end however, The host honored the prices that I'm supposed to pay after all. I want to give special thanks to the grandmother because there was this one day I caught a cold and she made special Ginger water for me with honey and she did that twice in that day so I felt better later on. And occasionally she brings me a little food and I appreciate this kindness very much. I recommend this place to travelers who are looking for a home-y and welcoming place during their traveling days. Wonderful experience 🌈🌿✨

Hot shower is mostly absent unfortunately.

First of all, I am not sure how this so called homestay got these many positive reviews. We booked this through booking.com for a day for our stay in Fort Kochi on 15th Jun. The place was difficult to find on google map and we tried calling him. The phone was switched off. After a struggle, we found out the property, stepped inside the compound and rang the bell multiple times. To our shock, there was no one there. The lights were on though. We waited there for 10 minutes, tried calling on the contact number provided which was still switched off. We contacted Booking. com customer service and it took almost half an hour speaking to them multiple times. They also were not able to reach the property owner.We got really pissed off and left in search of another accommodation. In the meantime, we got a call from booking. Com customer service stating that the property was unable to accommodate us (which clearly was a lie). The whole experience was so painstaking and stressful and going through that on your birthday is the worst thing someone can go through. I would like to warn those who plan to book this property to do so at the cost of your peace of mind and safety. Booking. Com, please remove the listing of such fraudsters or else your reputation will go for a toss
