Spice Coast Cruises - Houseboat, a CGH Earth Experience

Glide through Kerala’s Vembanad Lake on a traditional houseboat, offering luxury, local heritage, & village vistas.

Property Highlights

  • Nestled in the serene waterways of Vembanad Lake, this Kettuvallam houseboat offers an authentic Kerala experience.
  • These traditional boats once used to transport spices and rice, have been elegantly transformed into luxurious floating retreats.
  • Surrounded by a living ecosystem of vibrant flora and fauna, the houseboat provides a harmonious blend of privacy and connection to nature.
  • Each cabin is air-conditioned and designed for comfort and relaxation. It has a large bed, desk, en-suite bathroom, and enclosed spaces designed to shield you from insects while keeping you immersed in the natural beauty.
  • The houseboat offers a unique perspective on Kerala’s backwaters, while treating you to exceptional service and local cuisine, inspired by the region’s rich traditions.

Activities & Nearby Attractions

  • Drift to sleep with the gentle sounds of the lake and awaken to stunning sunrises over the water.
  • Sail through peaceful waters, taking in the lush greenery, birdlife, and traditional village life along the banks.
  • Witness a spectacular sunset from the lake’s centre, as hues of orange and pink light up the horizon.
  • Observe locals extracting palm sap, later fermented into the famous toddy brew—a fascinating glimpse into Kerala’s heritage.
  • Meet and converse with the residents of the backwaters, gaining insights into their unique way of life.
  • Enjoy dining on board the cruise and delight in distinct but unique flavours prepared by the boatman in a traditional manner.
  • Anchor in the middle of the lake for a peaceful overnight stay, with cicadas and gentle waves creating a soothing ambience.

We had a great stay at the spice coast cruise - houseboat#7, a two bedroom houseboat. As we were staying at coconut lagoon before boarding the houseboat, we requested a pickup from there. On boarding, we had a delicious spread (vegetarian) for lunch with 5/6 curry options! we sailed and enjoyed the breeze until sunset and docked for the night when the ac in both the rooms as well as the dining area was switched on. Evening tea and snacks and dinner was great as well and we had a restful sleep. In the morning we were served a delicious breakfast and set to sail again till checkout time. The staff was extremely polite and professional and took care of each and every request of ours. We enjoyed a peaceful time on the houseboat and loved the serene sunrise view.
