Guest Reviews
- Santhosh (10/5): - Super stay experience. Good hospitality Amphibians
- Hanspeter (10/5): - Absolut authentisches und preiswertes Homestay. Mit einem wunderschönen Garten und es gibt sogar einen Pool.
- Shruti (10/5): Beautiful property and the host Ajith is very welcoming. I have stayed here twice and looking forward for more number of - Everything was good and beautiful.
- Vinod Kumar (10/5): Pleasant, memorable - Peaceful, all amenities provided
- Saji (10/5): -
- Annabelle (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent stay - Ajith was extremely helpful and sorted our entire trip here with arranging autos, helping with buses, and provided delicious evening meals (at minimal extra cost). We loved the pool which is covered so keeps cool in the humid heat, and the option to kayak along the backwaters. Room is clean and unlimited supply of water. Great value.
- Thomas (10/5): A stay we did enjoy alot - We enjoyed our stay here very much. The location is outside the crowded spaces on the coast which gives it a tranquil experience. The cooking is no less than excellent - can only recommend the Idli & curry combination. Ajith has good advice on various things to do and see and can actively help you organize transport. We would book here againg. We feel a bit sad having to leave as our vacation comes to an end.
- Lynn (10/5): Calm, beautiful, lovely. - Charming, helpful host and host's family. Beautiful setting. The swimming pool was lovely and a real treat. Everything was calm, clean and tidy. The home cooked food was just what I hoped for. I stayed there on my own. I was the only guest. In a way, it would have been nice to have other tourists to chat to and to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the place. There would still have been plenty of space for privacy.
- Karin (10/5): Haven of peace in the backwaters. - Beautiful garden on a canal. Village life in the backwaters. We ate every evening at the homestay as the home cooked food was delicious. Lunch snacks from stalls nearby. Ajith and his parents were perfect hosts; welcoming, knowledgeable, helpful, respectful, can’t praise them enough. Come here to rest and relax.
- Murali (6/5): Not bad - Swimming pool Food arrangements
- Rebecca (10/5): Exceptional - Ajith and his family were so friendly and welcoming and provided lots of information on local things to see and explore including helping us arrange onward travel. The house is right next to then river and the canoeing and kayaking was one of the highlights of our trip. The home cooked food was great, the gardens were beautiful and the kids enjoyed the pool to cool off on a hot day. The rooms were comfortable and clean and it was a very relaxing few days. A really special stay!
- Valentina (9/5): Superb - Lovely home stay, comfortable and clean, the garden is amazing. Surrounded by nature, the location is conveniently close to the government boat starting point, for a tour of the backwaters. Kottayam town is about 20 mins away with tuk tuk .
- Samuel (10/5): The perfect homstay to visit the backwaters - This family was very implicated and responded with a lot of care and details to all our questions. It was so nice that we even chose to stay one more night (3 in total) ! The breakfast was perfect and the dinner very enjoyable! The garden was a huge plus, it was really taken care of and very beautiful! The pool was a very nice bonus !
- Valli (10/5): It’s a lovely home stay in Kottayam with its own kayak rental, garden homestay, canal to canoe on. - The hosts are extremely helpful and help you plan your stay by recommending amazing locations which are accessible by amazing government transport modes like jetty. The breakfast provided is very homely and healthy. The area is well connected by waterway and roadway with public transport available till 8pm. They have a cosy swimming pool and the foliage in the property makes the stay even better. The night skies are illuminated with fireflies. :)
- Madison (10/5): Excellent experience with nature hosts activities and food - Seriously an excellent homestay experience. You're in gorgeous jungle farmland, with amazingly friendly and helpful hosts, and the rooms are very comfortable. I can't recommend enough. There is a pool, a river right outside with boats and kayaks in the right season. Birds and other friendly critters about. Remote enough but also food delivery is available and they cook amazing free breakfast everyday. Excellent dinners are provided daily if desired for a very reasonable price. You should stay here!
- Beatrix (10/5): Exceptional - The hospitality is outstanding. Very lovely homestay
- Warshibs (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Madelon (10/5): Very nice and comfortable stay with the sweetest hosts! - Very beautiful and quiet scenery, because the homestay is in the middle of the nature. Ajith and his family are the sweetest and most generous people and helped us with all our questions. One morning we did canoeing which was very nice in the surroundings of the homestay. The evening dinners and breakfast were cooked by Ajiths mother which were very tasty. Because we liked the atmosphere at the place so much we booked an additional night. -
- Conor (10/5): Exceptional - Wot a beautiful homestay. . Nature, tranquil, delecious home cooking and beautiful family. Ajith is amazing. Five star treatment.
- Deevi (10/5): If we ever be back in this area we will definitely stay there again, you just can’t find a better host as Ajidh. - Good quiet area but Kottayam was s so close if you want to go to the city. Ajidh and his family are absolutely superb and will help you in every question. We absolutely enjoyed our stay in Kutticattil Homestay and will definitely recommend everyone to stay there if you’re travelling in this area. Very clean, comfortable, good facilities.
- Petra (10/5): Beautiful place & garden - We had a lovely stay and did like the place a lot ! The room was very nice and spotless! We could do our laundry which served us perfectly as we are travelling with bikes ! Ajith and his parents are very helpful and friendly people! We ordered dinner ; it was delicious and so was the breakfast
- Robert (8/5): Very good -
- Mal (9/5): Restful great family experience - Loved the garden and wildlife All good
- Daniel (10/5): Wonderful homestay experience! - We really enjoyed our stay at Kuttickattil Gardens Homestay. Ajith and his family were fabulous hosts and the food was delicious! It was especially nice to have access to a small kitchen and fridge, as well as a washing machine. They also provided drinking water for refilling our water bottles. We highly recommend staying at Kuttickattil Homestay! n/a
- Manikumar (8/5): Very good -
- Sheri (10/5): Exceptional - The Kuttickattil family was so kind, helpful and sweet whilst we stayed with them for 10 days over october. The food that was prepared was delicious, as we had most of our meals at the homestay, and the location was just beautiful. Arjith, and his parents made us feel so comfortable and at home during a trip that was quite stressful for us. We were suggested multiple local attractions to view and honestly we couldn't have found a better place to make home for our time away. The town of Arpookara was such a lovely place to explore and we had a lovely time. The kayaking experience was excellent and the backwater behind the property was so lovely to sit at each morning. It was fascinating to watch an inland body of water rise and fall with the moon, since we were below sea level! I would highly recommend this stay and my family will be coming back 🥰✨ The showers were a little difficult to get the hang of, but we got there in the end!
- Shruti (10/5): Splendid. - The property is amazingly beautiful . At the river bank . The host Ajith is very cooperative . I wish would have stayed there for a week . Everything was wonderful
- Vasudevan (7/5): Good -
- Montserrat (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderfull place. Kayak and bike avalable. Nice food Nothing

Activites such as karaoke, cycling, canoeing, carroms, fishing, swimming etc are all available. Very loving family running the place with all support Blankets could have been provided rather than sheets, more breakfast options could have been provided.
- Julie (10/5): beautiful homestay very friendly helpful people - beautiful house in quiet location family run homestay beautiful people who can’t do enough for you. food and drinks were offered and welcoming . we enjoyed kayaking on the river nothing

- John (9/5): Superb -
- Anonymous (8/5): great hospitality - Property is in a very good setting and very neat. will recommend this to everyone
- Norrish (10/5): Amazing opportunity ko - Family are so lovely. Ajith (son) was so helpful making suggestions, checking in, helping to arrange all the various things I wanted to do. Such thoughtful people, caring. Dad was lovely and mama is adorable making lovely meals and I wanted to go to town and she offered to take me with her. Really peaceful place. You will pinch yourself that your living right on the backwaters of Gods Country - kerala. The locals are very sweet. Bare in mind access to any western food is limited, howver enjoy the kerala cuisine for your time. Kottoyam is a short trip. Do yourself a favour and visit KutticKattil homestay or private houses on same property. Everything was perfect for me
- Nicole (9/5): Superb - The location, the bikes we could use, very nice host
- Shirish (10/5): Very nice stay. Will recommend this place to all friends and acquaintances. - Good location, clean, great food, well taken care of -

- Andrew (10/5): Exceptional - Such lovely hosts, so helpful. Great location, amazing boat trip and fab food. Being able to use bikes was really good too. Highly recommended for a great place to chill and enjoy nature. Nothing all great
- Ulrich (10/5): Exceptional - Had a wonderful time. Ery quiet location with a beautiful garden, surrounded by nature. Still pretty straightforward to get to even without your own vehicle (train or bus to Kottayam and from there 15 min. Tuktuk ride). Lots of things to do, too. The homestay has bicycles, kayaks and a motorboat to do tours in the beautiful surroundings. I did all of it. The prices for Kayak rental and the motorboat tour were very reasonable. The son of the owners managed my stay and was incredibly hospitable and helped me with everything. 100 % recommended.
- Chandramohan (10/5): Exceptional and Low cost - Homely Feel ,Exotic Location ,Great Ambience ,Yummy food
- Jacob (10/5): Great stay and food. - Quite ambience and serene atmosphere. Food was great, cooked with finer details to suit your taste. The owners took great care to make your stay memorable. Nothing much.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very quaint homestay and Adjit and his family were amazing! Thanks for making our stay special!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - A Hidden pearl in the Kumarakom Backwaters here at Kottayam Kayaking & Canoeing Tour At Kuttickattil Gardens Home Stay We took a Canoe Boat from Kuttickattil Homestay for 2 Hours Ride , Our Boat Guide Ajith (+91 9495188842 ) give a brief idea about the Life Style and Local Culture of people in Arpookara Backwater Region. He showed wide varieties of Birds in Early Morning like Cormorants, Cuckoo , Egret , Heron , and lot of Blue Kingfishers Alcedinidae. This Boating Tour (Kottayam Kayaking & Canoeing ) is Starting from the North East portion of Kumarakom at Arpookara village. So far, one of the most beautiful places I have seen and one of my best experiences. It's not crowded, it's clean and calm.
