There are about 500 houseboats plying in between Alleppey, Kumarakom and Thottapally. Some are as old as 20 years and some as new as a few months. This wide variation not only in the age of a houseboat but also its style, that is its interiors, makes it quite a task to sift and choose the perfect houseboat for your journey of a lifetime.

Houseboat owning companies number about 100 with much experienced pioneers having more than 30 boats to new entrants with a single boat. As is common in any business, over the years, a few companies have not only outlasted others but also created a brand for themselves. This has been done by maintaining standards and quality levels at all time, be it in choosing the best crew or keeping the floor mats washed and clean! Accordingly these high standards have necessitated higher prices. Newer entrants have come in with entrepreneur cum employee rolled in one package and have therefore been equally responsible in maintaining high quality standards but providing these services at a lower cost.

At Houseboats Kerala, we have included them all, the pioneers and their sophisticated boats and the just arrived boat owners and their personalised working style. Our listing and differentiation is based on both prices and the general standard of the houseboat. General standards include the level of sophistication in the interiors, the quality of the linen, cutlery, beds and cushions, the food and menu variants and the general service and language skills of the staff.
We have categorized our packages as luxury, standard and budget class based on the standards of the houseboat. Tariffs differ depending on the number of bedrooms for all categories and accordingly we have provided a tariff range for each choice you make when you choose a particular package.
So if you are the kind of traveller that wants only the best choose our luxury package while if you prefer a bit of finesse and reasonable service choose our standard packages. For the budget conscious traveller who prefers value over sophistication our budget houseboats package best suits your need.
