The setting is very peaceful overlooking the lake. The staff couldn’t do enough for us. They arranged our boating trip on Monroe Island as well as organising a takeaway meal for us in the evening. They also organised the tuk tuk to drive us to our next destination. It was one of the best stays we’ve had in India

Close your eyes and imagine swinging in a hammock overlooking the terras with a huge seating area with comfortable couches where people are reading a book, taking dinner together or just lazing around. But then you notice something missing: there are no honking cars or loud noises, this is India at its most quiet. The homestay is away from the streets in a quiet beautiful area surrounded by the backwaters and swaying palm trees. Dont stay here less than 2 nights as the area is simply beautiful with lots of things to do. Grab a free bike, take your own canoe into the ricefields, get the sunrise guided kayaktour or go on a walk all right from your doorstep. Why stay in the busy city when you can stay here? The owner is brilliant, the rooms are very clean, modern and comfortable. It is easily accessible by train (owner can arrange dropoff).

I had a wonderful stay with a warm, welcoming family! I was well taken care of throughout my visit. The room was cozy and clean, and the food was absolutely amazing. They provided plenty of information and recommendations on where to go and what to do—from a morning boat tour to kayak and bicycle rentals, plus laundry facilities, everything you need was available. Keep in mind that the homestay is a bit remote, further from the main river, but I found this to be an advantage. It allowed me to rent a kayak and explore the small canals easily. Additionally, the homestay is within walking distance from the train station—if you choose to walk, follow the road near the temple.

This place is really amazing. Deepa is a wonderful person and she and her family made my stay to a wonderful experience. We had a really nice sunset-tour with her father. The food was also very good. The room is big, cozy and clean. It was the best homestay I had so far in India!

Kailasam Homestay is a hidden gem for anyone looking for a peaceful and authentic experience. The atmosphere is incredibly calm, with the soothing sounds of birds in the morning and temple prayers creating a serene start to the day. The highlight of my stay was the amazing traditional breakfast—fresh, flavorful, and made with love. And the tea? Easily the best I’ve had in India! Kala is a wonderful host who makes you feel right at home, and her son is always ready to help with anything you need, from local recommendations to travel arrangements. Their hospitality truly sets this place apart. If you're looking for a homestay with warmth, great food, and a peaceful ambiance, Kailasam Homestay is the perfect choice!
