Situated within less than 1 km of Mullakkal Rajarajeswari Temple and 3.5 km of Alleppey Lighthouse, Kalappura Houseboats & Tours features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Alleppey. The property features lake and river views, and is 4.5 km from Alappuzha Railway Station. The boat has family rooms and facilities for disabled guests. I was a little worried about our stay on the houseboat as there are so many to choose from. However, as soon as I stepped on the boat I knew I had made the right decision. It is spotless and tidy. It is well kept. The owners met with us both to share the history of the houseboats and the local area. We had a wonderful cook and captain who took care of us throughout our stay. We were on a one bedroom boat which I highly recommend and we paid an additional fee for a trip down the narrow side canals the next morning: you must do this as you see local village life. The bed is enormous and all clean and comfortable. We wouldn’t hesitate to book this houseboat again. There are many on the water but many are large and not well maintained. This boat is very clean and offers a more authentic experience.

This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and full-day security for guests. We loved our 2 night cruise on Thara’s Houseboat. There are only 2 cabins on the houseboat and 3 staff on board, so it felt a really intimate, private experience on a beautiful wooden heritage boat. The food was incredible, some gorgeous fish and vegetarian dishes and tasty afternoon snacks. We had a relaxing and peaceful 2 day cruise around the Kerala backwaters and then we were dropped back off in Alleppey. The boat was stunning and a really cool experience - we would definitely recommend this boat over one of the bigger, more commercial houseboats. Special thanks to Saji (chef on night 1), Roy (chef on night 2), Sanu and Jayabalan for making our stay so special. The staff were all amazing and wanted the guests to enjoy their stays.

MAHARANI - Beautiful traditional style boat in a peaceful location with local life to view whilst cruising.

We got off the boat and purchased tiger prawns and calamari from the locals en route and our chef cooked these to perfection together with a total ‘banquet’ of delicious local dishes. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. Pure decadence and excellent value. Lastly a huge thank you to Alush M (Front office manager) who organised us from instructions to finding the resort to offering us all the services the resort has to offer and ensuring our stay was perfect.

I have stayed on a house boat before so nothing to compare to but we loved it! It’s you, the captain, the driver and the cook. The silence, meditation, scenery is beautiful. Just relax and enjoy. Food was delicious! Two adults and two kids of 8 and 11 having a blast.
The boat trip was such a amazing experience. The staff are so helpful and the food they served was so delicious.The lakes and canals were so peaceful and beautiful. I really recommend Tharas house boat if you have a plan to explore backwaters
The houseboat was impeccable, the food and the service on board could not be faulted. Stopped on the way to get some beers etc and the team included what we bought in our experience without question. Very relaxing with great food. The communication form the local office (Honey) was great, made things very easy for our driver.
Very close to the airport. Shuttle provided on time. Breakfast was really good. They also helped arrange a taxi to the house boat. The driver Arjun was excellent. Great driving, really safe and made sure we reached on time. Highly recommended.
Not too much detail here, as arrived late afternoon and departed for a houseboat stay the next morning. We saw on here that people felt that the short canoe ride required to get to the property was a negative, but it added fun to the trip for us. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Breakfast delivered to our veranda outside room was ample. Room wasn't huge, but worked for the one night we needed it for. Lovely spot on the river.
This was my first house boat stay. N worth it for a lasting memory About the room we chose the deluxe option.
We had great time, the houseboat was super clean and comfortable upper deck main highlight of the house boat, staff Vijay, babu,kochu super food was very great and so many new things to taste great job team of whynot
