Holiday houses in Mangattuparamba

Tucked away in a quiet lane , place is neat and clean, good wifi, AC (extra charges), and best of all, truly pet friendly too! So it was ideal for our December end holiday for our family of four and our little min pin. Upstairs Cottage where we had booked is private with a pretty big terrace which doubles as a dining space, and great for watching the start studded night sky! Rooms are also available in the property, which has lot of greenery. Relaxing! Ideal for a beach holiday as the property is only ten minutes walk from the clean, quiet beach. no hawkers or shops here. Pristine sea, hope it stays like this ! Carry your own toiletries. beach towels/mats if you like to spend extended time at the beach as we did. Host is very responsive and we had options of South Indian home cooked lovely food, (appam, stew, rice, curry) as well as North Indian roti, tasty sabzi made by the very helpful energetic Suraj and his wife Vasu. Reasonable charges for food.

This is a wonderful property. We had the entire ground floor to ourselves which was extremely spacious. We were also very pleased as it has a fully functional kitchen. The home is clean and the private garden is well maintained. My dogs had a wonderful time frolicking in the garden. Benny was very prompt and did everything he could to make our stay comfortable. When we struggled to find a place to stay the next day, he accommodated us in his other property which saved us a lot of trouble. The meals were delicious and the instructions I received before reaching the property were detailed. We had a great time in Kannur, thanks to Benny and his family’s hospitality.

warm cozy home right next to the beach

The stay was beautiful. We went during the peak summer so it’s obviously extremely hot, so stayed inside this amazing stay during day time, enjoying the view from the balcony. There was air conditioning but I think the capacity of air conditioner is not sufficient for the space of the room. Had to keep it on for so many hours to feel the room cooling down. No food places to go nearby, the airbnb helper cooks amazing sea food, other than that one can be able to order food from swiggy. Totally worth the price, very remote. Might have a bit of trouble to communicate with the helper/maid because she only knows malayalam, but easily manageable with a bit of effort and google translate.

It is a good place and you can have a nice time working and living here. All facilities are there to make this a vivid coliving - a nice kitchen, a garden area, spacious couches and a common desk area. (The pictures are 100% real). I regret that I had no real contact to the other guests though during my short 3 days stay. But when I ran into a gathering of Athul with his friends I got invited to join and felt like an old friend immediately – indian hospitality at its best. The place is in walking distance from downtown with a good selection of restaurants, shops, markets and the railway station. It's a residential area still so if you're planning on activities like going to the beaches be prepared to take a Rikshaw.

Our stay with Naveen’s family was the highlight of our two-month journey in India. Hospitality often comes from training and business strategies to earn good reviews, but sometimes, it comes straight from the heart—and that’s exactly the case with Naveen and his family. We spent most of our time with his mother, whom we soon started calling ‘Aunty.’ The food was incredible, but more than just its taste, it was the love and care she poured into cooking and serving it that made every meal special. Naveen was always available, answering our questions and ensuring all our needs were met. If you’re looking for a true homestay experience and a glimpse into daily life in India, this is the place to be.

This was my first stay at a homestay. I wasn't sure what to expect. However it turned out to be a great experience. We were welcomed with a refreshing lemonade drink by friendly host. They helped us settle down quickly. All amenities are good. We being strict vegetarian, kitchen was really useful. Thank you Babu and special thanks to Amma as well. Beach is just five minutes walk where we spent lots of time.

Had a great stay! The room was clean, comfortable, and exactly as shown. Arjun was friendly and helpful.
