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

Location is very calm and peaceful. I feel like my own home. They prepared the homemade food for us. It was very tasty and delicious. The warm hospitality of Deepa and care the family puts to making sure all guests treated for an exceptionally memorable trip. We also did a canoe tour, which was amazing.. We couldn't have asked for a better experience Highly recommend!

Property itsefl is very beautiful, very close to the beach. Rooms are nice and well equipped. There is very nice kitchen equipped in everything is needed (with washing machine) and living room. On the second floor you will find an amazing terrace with big table and hammocks. Breakfast is served everyday on the terrace, which are by the way delicious. Best thing of staying here is the greates host I ve ever met. Saajev is very kind, helpful and funny guy who can help you with anything you need, he can arrange the scooters and show you the neighbourhood. honestly we spent 4 nights here and had the best in India. I do really recommend to stay here, we will come back for sure.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Kailasam Homestay, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with warmth and hospitality. The homestay offers a truly cozy, home-like atmosphere, making it feel like a peaceful retreat. The highlight of the stay was the food—each meal was not just tasty but a real treat for the taste buds! Kala, the host, was incredibly kind and went the extra mile by teaching us how to prepare some of the delicious dishes. We had so much fun cooking together and learning new techniques that we can now recreate at home. Additionally, Kailasam Homestay arranged several activities for us, including boating, cycling, and kayaking. The scenic surroundings made these experiences even more memorable, and it was a great way to explore the area and unwind. All in all, Kailasam Homestay offers the perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and exceptional food. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable stay!

I had such a lovely time at the homestay! The accommodation itself is of a high standard. The provided food was all incredible ! (Lunch portions are massive) I was able to do a sunrise boat trip, was shown around the island and also did kayaking on Munroe Island. As other reviews mention it is literally an island that is only reachable by boat so just be mindful of any amenities you may need to buy beforehand. You can always ask to be taken to Munroe Island otherwise. The host is very hospitable and honestly it was so nice to have downtime.

It's an island home stay, if you are looking for a place away from the city rush then this is the place for you. The host is helpful & friendly. He treats you like family & takes care of everything, you will be transported in a boat from the nearest Railway Station or road. Early morning boat ride & sunset on shore are the highlights of this place.
