Awesome experience....nnYou will get homely food
It is one of the biggest boat if not the biggest, you will find in alleppey backwaters. We booked Super premium Rooms with full time AC which in Alleppey climate I found was necessary.nnChecked-in between 12 PM to 1 PM. Boat started for cruise by 01:30 PM. After about an hour cruise, it stopped mid-lake. We had lunch in-house which was simple and homemade. View was breathtaking. Felt like middle of the ocean. After an hour, boat started again for cruise for a couple of hours and then anchored i to a place wherein it stopped for half an hour for guests to buy munchies and just walk around. After that boat cruised back to another place for an hour where we halted for the night till next day 8 am. Guests are served breakfast till 08:30 am and then boat reaches starting point by 9 PM by which time everyone checks out.nnOverall, houseboat was good, could have been maintained further. Would have liked an open deck to relax in backwater because the air was very soothing and the view was fabulous. Star of the show is backwater cruise except which our experience would have been below par.
Everything was professional and good. Starting from the check-in, room stay, food and courtesies of staff all good and acceptable. Safe and tidy, room spacious.nnOpted for premium so 24X7 Air Conditionernexcept for a few minutes of disruption during docking in the evening.nnAll good and pleasant experience only.nnLunch was good, dinner ambience was special and breakfast was alright.nnNo insects or pests to worry about.nnRecommend having some mosquito spray handy and spraying in the toilet area, through exhaust mosquitoes creep in.nnEnjoy ..
It's a good thing if you are travelling in a large group or else it was boring they need to improve with their food menu. Very basic and nothing special. We were asked to buy what ever we liked from a fresh seafood shop and they cooked it for us and we paid extra for the special seafood. After docking there is nothing to do the whole evening. The AC they only start at 9pm and till then it's very suffocating as no air movement because the boat is docked and there is no seperate open deck where we could stand or enjoy the open space, lower deck was very cramped and the upper deck had the eating area so basically no place to stand and view the back waters.
Me and my wife stayed here one night on 9th November 2019. First of all i must say that the staffs were very helpful and cordial.nnThe stay was heavily priced -8000 INR. Foods was very average. In desert they kept 1rupee eclairs. Veg items were just good for nothing.nnIn one word i felt that the facilities vis a vie price was not matching and i felt cheated.nnHowever, good part is - the cordial behaviors of staffs.nn.
