The kettuvallams - as the houseboats are locally known - are a testament to the ancient rice trade of this region and uphold a tradition pre-dating industrial engineering technique. Hand stitched by local craftsmen with coir and strengthened with fish oil, they are built using jack-wood; an indigenous variety of hardwood commonly used in local construction. From the viewing deck or your bedroom’s picture window you will see life on the backwaters, and the result is immediate: slow down, de-stress, rejuvenate. The waterways of Kuttanad disctrict weave through the area’s unique below-sea-level method of paddy cultivation.
