Private Luxury Houseboats on the Backwaters
Your own crewed boat, your own chef, and a route through canals and lake country larger boats never reach.
Nothing distils Kerala like a night on a private houseboat. Converted from traditional rice barges, today’s finest boats carry en-suite cabins, shaded decks and a crew of captain, deckhand and chef — exclusively yours.
We charter only boats we know: well-kept, quietly run, with chefs who cook Kerala’s lake-country food beautifully. Routes favour the smaller canals and open lake crossings over the crowded main channels.
What our charters include
- En-suite cabins, shaded upper decks and full crew
- Kerala cuisine cooked on board to your tastes
- Quieter routes and overnight moorings away from the crowds
- One-night tasters to multi-night backwater voyages
Private Luxury Houseboats on the Backwaters – Good to know
Is the houseboat really private?
Yes — we charter whole boats only, never cabins on shared boats. The crew look after just your party, and the route and pace are yours.
What is the food like on board?
Your chef cooks fresh Kerala cuisine on board — lake fish, vegetable thorans, appam and more — adjusted to your tastes and dietary needs.
How many nights on a houseboat?
One night is the classic taster and suits most itineraries; two or more open up longer, quieter routes deep into the lake country.
