I was travelling with my girlfriend down the Keralan coast and we found that the Pamba Heritage homestay was a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the tranquillity of the Keralan back waters. It is a short taxi from Allepey and is accessed, rather charmingly, by canoe from the local pier. Once there you can enjoy the traditional style homestay... More

The Pamba Heritage is a great place to relax in a hammock and watch all the boats go by in the backwaters. Better than the houseboat option for those who want to see more of village life and stay with a friendly and accomodating local family. Rajeev and his family are relaxed, welcoming and always ready to help. The food... More

A nice place to relax for a few days in the middle of the hussle and bustle of the rest of India, and a nice alternative for those who want to visit the backwaters but not necessarily on a houseboat. Rajiv's family cooked us delicious spicy meals and we spent many hours relaxing in the hammocks that overlook the activity... More

Arriving by auto rickshaw from Alleppey and then a small boat from Nedamudi jetty, we found ourselves in this lovely place. We were close to nature here surrounded by tropical fruit trees and we slept in the most beautifully authentic extremely comfortable room and washed in an enchanting open-to-the-sky bathroom.(we didin't want anything else) We walked through paddy fields and...

The only negative I have to say about my stay at the Pamba Heritage Villa is that it was only one night and I could have stayed for weeks. We arrived and were welcomed by the owner, Rajeev and his family who run the homestay. The first meal was served in the traditional style on a banana leaf and was... More

Fantastic days spent there, unfortunately only 2... The best place to find oneself or just to rest a little bit with mind and body. thanks to the beautiful river just in front of your eyes and the nice people who live the house: Rajeev and his beautiful wife!

This is the best way to experience the backwaters. Staying at a family house on a river shore, watching the boats go by, and exploring the villages around. To this one should add the warm hospitality, the great local homemade food, and the nice rooms. Rajeev, Angeli and the children gave us the feeling that we were their personal guests... More

We enjoyed our two night stay, taking boat rides on the river, hanging out on the porch talking with the relatives we were traveling with, eating on a table out in the grass under a tree, watching the boats and the world pass by. The rooms are simple and lovely, the bathrooms are a kick (western style and very nice... More

The Pamba Heritage Villa is a stunningly beautiful property where you can soak up the Kerala sun and the calming vibe of the backwaters. Rajeev's is unbelievably hospitable, helping us with everything from organizing a sunset cruise on the water to acquiring some delicious toddy for a nightcap. But, perhaps the most amazing part of the trip was the food.... More
