A lovely, peaceful stay with a great location and a really personal touch
Pros:

Really enjoyed staying at Malakkarethu House. The location is probably the best part... it’s so close to the temple, right by the pampa river, and the traditional style of the house fits Aranmula and temple surrounding so well.
Jojy was really welcoming and made sure we were settled in and knew our way around. That personal touch made the stay even nicer. I also wasn’t expecting the place to have such a nice resort feel for a B&B. It’s actually even better than the photos on Booking.com. Would happily stay here again!

Pros:

The rooms look way better than the pictures. Just next to Parthasarathi temple. You can go to Pamba river directly from the rooms. The owner was really nice. Food was homely and amazing. I will recommend it to anyone coming to Aranmula

Highly recommended…we would all happily go back.
Pros:

The owner and staff at this property were exceptionally helpful from the booking process all the way to the last day of our one week stay. We had a party of 11 people occupying 5 rooms.
They not only catered to our requests for the different meals with extremely delicious home cooked meals ( Shout out to the chef and kitchen staff), they also helped us out with whatever needs we had, like finding a tailor, getting local transportation, looking for train tickets, washing our laundry etc. We felt extremely cared for and enjoyed our stay.

Cons:

The bathrooms could be upgraded. It is Kerala and there are occasional spiders in the room, despite their best efforts.

Perfect Village stay for a relaxing stay
Pros:

It’s an older style property with a a totally renovated interior. It has the best combination of fascinating architecture and modern comforts. The Bedrooms are spacious with a king bed and balcony. Ours had a view of the river across the gardens. It was quiet and comfortable.
The staff were absolutely accommodating. They cooked us local home style meals to our choice. They were flat out while we were there, but still found time to look after us. It was a great stay for us and we stayed 3 nights.

Cons:

Not much. Would have liked tea/coffee facilities in the room. Also the wifi was not the best, but considering that we chose a village stay we are being really fussy here.
