Rice Village Home Stay

Eight rooms deep in Kerala's backwater hinterland, Rice Village Home Stay occupies a traditional homestead at Chathurthiakary, roughly 12 kilometres from Alleppey town centre — a quiet base for travellers wanting paddy-field mornings over Alleppey's busier canal-facing guesthouses.

The property leans into its agricultural setting: cooking classes use produce from the surrounding rice fields, canoeing and fishing launch directly from nearby waterways, and walking tours cover local farming culture. Room service and fruit deliveries keep stays self-contained when guests prefer stillness to excursions.

Access to healthcare professionals on-site is an uncommon rural touch, useful for longer-stay visitors. Parking is available, making this practical for self-drive arrivals navigating Kerala's backwater roads.
