Everything was absolutely perfect. I felt like a princess from the moment I stepped on the boat. The decoration is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the staff is friendly and caring. Kerala backwaters ate beautiful!

The boat was really nice and well maintained. Did a nice cruise across the lake and into a smaller channel. Also did some kayaking which was all organised by Jos! Thank you. Everything was hassle free and the houseboat was nicely priced.

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.

We had an amazing stay at Why Not Houseboat. The food was really good, and the cruise was relaxing. They also suggested a good ayurvedic center and took us in the houseboat to get our massages.

Highly recommended - the team looking after us were fantastic! Our boat was called Karamanayar and the food prepared by chef Mahesh was sublime! The captain Venu was delightful and Rejeesh was so attentive and helpful. This boat had an upper deck which was a great place to get the best views.

Looking for a boat?

Get out on the water (without ever leaving the dock!) on a commercial boat. Guests have access to a partial or entire boat, yacht or houseboat, which will remain docked throughout the stay. Meals and additional services may be available -- a nautical getaway awaits.
