Houseboat:
Kettuvallam - a magical experience
The ultimate waterfront experience is an overnight cruise on a traditional Kerala rice boat. The charming cocoon shaped silhouette has been retained and the interior has been converted into an elegant suite complete with bedroom, living and dining area and all other modern amenities. The boats are manned by experienced crew, well versed in local lore and always ready to dish out delectable dishes as the boat navigates the still backwaters.
The "Kettuvallam" is made entirely of jackwood planks tied (kettu) together with strong coir rope to form a huge barge (vallam). The boat is constructed without using a single nail and is coated with a special resin obtained from boiling cashew kernels.Kettuvallam is a truly unique experience.
