House in the Beach

Little Buddhas 🥹✨

Meet Len & Ogyen, hands down the gentlest, politest kids we ever hosted. You know how Teddy is such a Zen dog, but these kids made him look like a little rowdy.

Hosting their family of four was truly a pleasure, and every exchange with them was heartwarming. So thoughtful, so adorable, so kind and trusting - this family ought to be protected at all costs!

P.S. When I commented to their mom that the kids are the gentlest little people I have ever came across, she joked that someone called them Little Buddhas on their travels. Accurate to a 💯! Gave us so much Yodha vibes while they were her, hence the choice of music. If you know, you know!

Never a boring night here 🌙

Still every bit a work in progress but also somehow lighting up every bit of this previously orphaned corner wall.

A kind of a mandala!

Paradise ain’t a place.
It’s sometimes a feeling, a person you hold in you hands.

May you find paradise wherever you go, dears. The sight of you together looks like a dream!

And boy must I tell you this, you make our tropical wall look better…💚

A nearly perfect reading nook, ain’t it?✨

Packing a beach read is always a good idea, we agree! Especially so if you are seeking to spend some quality time at a cozy beach stay like ours. The sounds of waves lapping in the background, soft sunshine and comforting shade, the lazy lull of the hammock, and the purest of vibes to soak in…! Need I say more?

It was a true delight hosting this girl gang! Can’t wait to have you over again, Sophia.

Christmas is here!!!

And here we are, snuggling up to warm travel stories over wine and cake. From us to you and yours, a very merry Xmas! ✨🎄

Pretty evenings like these ✨

It’s a busy season here! Back-to-back guests, travelers with adventure stories we shan’t run out in one night, familiar favorites, kindest strangers…we have our calendar full and our hearts dancing.

Picture taken by these gracious guests who left a note in the bedroom for us to find. I wouldn’t hype up a guest but this was a handwritten note, front and back, and it was left in these cute DIY envelopes!!

After a lot of oohing and aahing, the note went straight to our treasure chest. Yup, we have one. And, it’s brimming already.

What a year this has been. Looking forward to this Xmas and New Year’s !

Boy we got plans! 🤞🏽♥️✨

Paw-host. He takes his job very seriously.

He has embraced the hosting lifestyle since he was a 2-month-old puppy newly brought home. He gets genuinely confused if there are no new visitors lavishing attention on him for more than 2 days in a row. He gives me that look I take to mean ‘what woman, why aren’t we accepting guests anymore, are we no longer the ‘it’ place? You know I can’t handle being unpopular’! He’s right, he was born to be adored, there is no other way.

Teddy is in his element when he has a bunch of people around him for him to entertain and love. He’s our ultimate vibe-checker. If he’s vary of someone new (which happens very rarely), it alerts us to something potentially amiss.

Teddy gets special mentions in our guest reviews. He features heavily in the pictures taken. We get messages and calls from guests weeks after they left, checking in on Teddy. Telling us how they miss him.

We got lucky with this one. He’s pretty much pawfect!

Our charming traveler’s guesthouse in Alleppey is also home to over three dozen stunning pieces of art. And we sometimes feel like we would be so lost without them.

Someday, we wish to open a dedicated art gallery but in the meanwhile, enjoy our modest spaces with gorgeous art on the wall.

Bringing this corridor to life is botanical illustration pieces by our very own . Thank you for this thoughtful gift, you lovely human. It is deeply cherished and much appreciated.

P.S. Whenever I walk past this door, I take a peek inside just to breath in this gorgeousness. It’s like pinching myself to confirm it is indeed there. That it is all real.

P.P.S. Stay tuned for better pictures of the art we have curated. Yes, we have too many favorites.

We can’t keep calm coz we are brimming with updates! We are open again!!!

To our lovely fam who kept asking us when we’ll be ready to host them again, the answer is now. In fact, there is no better time than now.

There’s brand new corners to hang out, gorgeous art on display on the wall, tastefully themed spaces, a fully-stocked kitchen and a maestro chechi to whip up ‘thani naadan’ delicacies of your choice, and of course, your favorite hosts waiting for you here!

We are in love with how the space look now and we can’t wait to show off. More pressingly, we can’t wait for you to soak in the experience we have spent so many weeks curating specifically for you.

Someone favorite once said ‘House in the beach is a vibe, bro’, and we can’t put it any better than that.

We can’t keep calm coz we are brimming with excitement! We are open again!!!

To our fam who kept asking us when we’ll be ready to host next, there’s no time like now! We have missed you and we have so much to show you.

Brand new hangout corners, gorgeous art on the wall,

Take a peek at the view we were enjoying while Missing in Action on the page!😎😉

Yes, the evenings are getting increasingly gorgeous while our brand underwent major updates. We can’t wait to make the announcements and show you pictures, and there are quite a few! Can you feel our excitement?

Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the view meanwhile!

You might call it girl’s time out, we call it fun therapy!

Because omg it was so much fun! We had a gala time catching up, trading stories, leaking a few tears, munching on pasta and burgers, and even stealing ourselves fresh tender coconuts by cajoling the ‘thengu kerunna chettan’! 🥥😂🍔

And of course, it goes without saying how we all took turns cuddling Teddy because he runs the show, you know?

Congratulations team on restarting the girl’s only trips after the hiatus. Can’t wait to travel with you lot 💃💛🥂

Teddy, the popular-most pup in town!

This boy is a natural at giving people company. Our guests are surprised by how effortlessly he makes friends and show his affection. Teddy loves, loves, and then loves some more!

And in turn, he is dearly loved back with ample belly-rubs, scratchies, and treats. We certainly dont mind that the most spoilt pup in the neighbourhood lives with us!

Forever the goodest boy!!!😘

Throwback to last New Year when we hosted this lovely bunch and gave them a tour of all our 3 properties because they were simply the best kind of guests ever!

And so at the cottage (pozhiveedu in slang), we took a leaf out of the Nadodi’s book and treated ourselves to some paddling around the emerald-green lagoons that surround the cottage.

Can you spy Teddy resting in my hands after chasing our boat around? He swam a lap (the longest he ever swam), and gave us his best puppy eyes that melted even the hearts of my fellow-paddler-girls who were originally terrified of dogs.

Will you look at that!!!😍🥳💙

The time when visited us and did what he does best - get magical pictures! Thanks, Hari. We absolutely adore your work

If the view isn’t worth it, why do?

A regular evening from our cottage by the Secret Beach. There’s the lagoons, the white sand, a glimpse of the sea, and a glorious sunset!

The view! The serene stay. And the view again!!!

A holiday to remember!

A quaint little cottage hugged tight by emerald green lagoons.

This is the private cottage our guests gush about. Exclusive. Dreamy. In the middle of nowhere. Overlooking the Secret Beach.

Get in touch with us if you need a getaway too.

Van Gogh inspired art on the door, and a woman who’s purely a work of art!

This New Year’s eve, we opened the newest guesthouse on Nadodi Beach, Aleppey. A quaint four-room place oozing with personality and charm, we are in love with the guesthouse already. Can’t wait to have you over💃!

And yes, the Van Gogh inspired door is only a teaser of what is to come. With looking like a surreal dream, we couldn’t NOT post this picture, you know? She came with a darling bunch of friends and we are pretty sure no one else ever could’ve opened a new property to better guests.

The best kind! 💙

Is there a cuter parking space anywhere else? I think not!

I mean, why should humans hijack all the view? Cars can enjoy a prime spot too 😍🚗
