Houseboats provide the wonderful opportunity to discover the enchanting backwaters and lively villages of Kerala.
Features of Houseboats
Kettuvalloms are converted into houseboats with using only natural products like bamboo mats, sticks, wood of the aracanut and coconut trees, coir mats, wooden planks etc. Even the arrangement for lighting is done with solar panels.
