Alleppey House Boat

WHAT WE DO

Private charters on Kerala’s slowest water.

One thing, done completely: luxury kettuvallams — one to sixteen staterooms — sailed privately with a chef aboard. As the houseboat arm of World Leisure And Travel Services, we also carry you to and from the water: transfers, hotels, and onward Kerala itineraries under the same roof.

21hrs

12:00 NOON → 09:00

The overnight cruise.

The core of what we do. Board at noon, lunch underway, village canals in the afternoon, anchor for a lantern-lit dinner and wake to mist on the water. Every meal cooked aboard; ashore by nine.

6hrs

11:00 → 17:00

The day cruise.

Six golden hours through the paddies and village waters with a Kerala lunch cooked aboard — the backwaters distilled, for parties short on days.

How a booking runs

01

Tell us dates and party

WhatsApp, phone or the enquiry form — dates, headcount, occasion. We answer with the vessels that fit and honest advice on season and route.

02

We hold the boat

A 20% advance confirms your date in writing; the balance is due before boarding. Full refund up to thirty days out.

03

Board at noon

Check in at Punnamada jetty, tender coconut in hand. From there the water runs the clock — and the crew runs everything else.

Every cruise includes.

A chef aboard, every meal

Welcome drink, lunch, evening tea, dinner and breakfast — cooked fresh on board. Veg, Jain, halal and vegan menus on request.

The whole boat, one party

You never share your vessel. Single-party privacy is the rule of the fleet.

A dedicated crew

Captain, chef and deck crew — a butler on the Ultra Luxury boats — with you for the whole cruise.

A/C staterooms & hotel linen

Air-conditioned bedrooms with attached baths, fresh linen, and toiletries.

A curated route & sunset anchorage

A sightseeing route through Vembanad and Kuttanad, canoe side-trips, and the regulation sunset anchorage.

Licensed boat & safety gear

A government-licensed, insured vessel with life jackets and buoys for every guest.
