The overall experience was great. The stay was comfortable and beautiful. The driver took us to places that were in the itinerary. There was an issue with the drivers working hours, there was a day, when we wrapped up everything before 7, n we had ample amount of time, which could have been utilized, but since the driver didn't want to go, we did not go out.

Raju's 6 days trip to Kerala
After booking, Mr Alan said to me that room category is not available and upgraded to new room with high price. I agreed to pay extra amount, However, when I was in hotel, it was not upgraded, it was downgraded with high price. I was cheated here. After booking, It in not my problem but you behaved unprofessionally. You charged me extra amount after booking that is very unprofessional. 2. For rest amount to pay no communication by Alan & message sent for paying when I was in flight. After landed to Trivandrum and on-boarded in taxi, You welcome me in Kerala like you and your system like terrorist group and rush to all payment in minutes otherwise taxi will be parked on highway and will not move till the payment. It was a pathetical behavior I ever seen from professionals.

Harshavardhan's 5 days trip to Kerala
Testimonial for 'Book It Forget It' & TravelTriangle "The overall trip planning and support from 'Book It Forget It' was awesome, especially the service from Sahil Vij. He was incredibly responsive and took quick action on my last-minute request to arrange a new houseboat with a bigger bed to comfortably accommodate our family. The booking process through TravelTriangle was also fantastic; Soujanya Rai and Neha helped us finalize great options and supported us well throughout. I highly appreciate the 3-installment payment option—it really builds trust between the customer and the agency. The payment flexibility extended to our cab service as well, and our driver was a genuinely good person who was always ready to help with our luggage. Thank you for the great support!" Best Memories of the Trip The Houseboat Experience: Cruising for a full day on the Kerala backwaters was incredible. We enjoyed the ride immensely, and the larger bed accommodated our family of four perfectly. Chef Bino's Cooking: The food on the houseboat was an absolute highlight! Chef Bino was fantastic and truly made our day by cooking awesome, high-quality meals for us. Cliffside Views in Varkala: We enjoyed a lot of our time in Varkala, especially staying at the Wood House Beach Resort right on the cliff side. The views and the atmosphere there were unforgettable.

Types of Houseboat

1. Standard houseboats

These are basic structures that do offer neither air conditioning nor any entertainment services. These are the best to experience a traditional stay at Kerala houseboats.

2. Deluxe Houseboats

While staying true to tradition, these types of houseboats are furnished tastefully with some modern amenities. Live in comfort as you watch the slow pace of life from the open-air living area and feel de-stressed.

3. Superior Deluxe Houseboats

24-hour air-conditioning and uniformed butlers are among the superior facilities available with these houseboats. Holidaying in these houseboats are akin to living in star-rated accommodation.

4. Premium houseboats

These opulent boats are ideal for trips that last for 3 or more days. Appointed luxuriously, these spacious houseboats offer utmost comfort to help you unwind in the lap of nature.

5. Luxury houseboats

These majestic houseboats are equivalent to 5-star accommodations, and offer a lavish cruise experience. The wooden ceiling, comfortable double beds with the finest quality linen spread over them in the spacious rooms, and refined decor in the expansive lounge areas enhance the ambiance.

Facilities & Meals In Houseboats

The facilities are varied, depending upon the types of the houseboats. Some even have only lamps that can be lighted with oil and no power backup. The interior decor shows the dominant usage of coconut fiber ropes and bamboo, especially in the Standard houseboats. The Deluxe houseboats have a few air-conditioned bedrooms and fully equipped kitchen. The Premium houseboats have bedrooms containing double beds or two single beds and lounging areas are furnished with cozy upholstered furniture. These houseboats come equipped with evac systems or other biochemical alternatives and their own sewage systems. The bathrooms are fitted with hot water supplies and western-style closets. The Luxurious houseboats are equipped with recliner beds in the sitting area, daily newspapers and WiFi internet connectivity are supplied, LCD televisions with BluRay players, microwaves, mini-refrigerators, toasters and coffee makers are provided in each room.

You can indulge your taste buds with the delectable Kerala cuisine while on board. Multicuisine offerings are also presented subjected to availability, depending upon the type of boat you selected.

Tips For Kerala Houseboat Packages

Since it is not every day we go for houseboat stays, it is important that proper research and studies are done previously to make sure you know all the precautions to take.
Understanding the concept of the different types of houseboats is important so as to select one that suits your needs the best. It is also recommended that you go through reviews and experiences shared by other travelers previously.
The timings, schedule, rules and costs of houseboats should also be enquired before booking and the same should be checked from online sources.
Bring everything that you might need during your stay because there are no shops to buy last-minute requirements.
Kerala has strict laws about dressing when it comes to visiting temples so if you are planning on sightseeing onshore, pack accordingly.

One major perk of Kerala Houseboat Packages is that they can be availed by any mode of transport. The train journey is easier for people with claustrophobia and height issues, apart from being affordable. Many people love long road trips and reaching Kerala by road is an excellent opportunity for adventure lovers. There are various kinds of packages the Houseboat providers offer. Honeymoon packages, family packages, party packages, anniversary packages, birthday Packages and packages for kids are some of those. Each one specializes in activities that will enhance the vacations. To savor the flavor of a different kind of a holiday, book Kerala Houseboat Packages today and enjoy some time out of the humdrum of city life relaxing with your loved ones.
