Monthly Rentals in Balanthode

We checked into Bekal Village Homestay for a short two-day stay and it was one of the best airbnb experiences we've had. Shobhith anna was our caretaker and he made us feel right at home from the very first second. He was friendly, responsive and took care of all our needs. He gave us local recommendations and also provided us with tips ahead of our trek to Ranipuram. As far as the place itself is concerned, it's amazing. The surrounding is peaceful, calm and serene and is filled with greenery. You can just sit outside and take it all in because it's so quiet. You get a mini-villa of sorts for yourself and the rooms are super clean, filled with all the amenities that have been mentioned. Additionally, you can order food from local restaurants and it will be delivered directly to your room. The locality is also perfect: It's 8-10 mins away from both the Bekal Beach and the Bekal Fort. If you're planning to visit Bekal, go for this. Has everything you can ask for.

It’s a nice 3 bed house on the first floor with a lot of balcony space. Building has a lot of greenery. Host has provided us with authentic Kerala breakfast. They have provided AC in 2 bedrooms and cooler in third bedroom, due to costal weather it’s stuffy, we had suggested for an AC in 3rd bedroom. Also the bedsize is small 6x3 . For drinking water they have provided a 2 liter jug , later on when requested they provided with additional can. Suggest they provide a water dispenser.

This is one beautiful location, for city hustlers- this is heaven. Good roads and easily accessible. Very peaceful, scenic stay. Pros- very thoughtfully designed. by the beach and lake, enjoy both flavours, pet friendly, my fur kids enjoyed it, climate was awesome- not humid, didn’t feel the heat. both host and staff are very friendly, had some amazing sea food here, Also some fresh fruits and snacks were arranged in the room. Kitchen looked so cosy and minimal. villagers are also very loving and helpful. i couldn’t find sugar in the kitchen for morning tea and the lady at neighbouring house helped us, she even gave us some fresh sprouted coconuts to eat. Cons- a little secluded, once the sun sets, its different, and dark around, but surely safe. For the per day rate staying more than two days may hurt the pocket even though we wanted to.

We enjoyed the stay and the place is surrounded by greenery and there is a small water fall right next to the house. The hospitality was the best in this stay, especially Leelavathy Ma'am was very proactive where she was able to prepare the lunch immediately without pre-order understanding our situation as it was heavily raining and there was no option for us to go out for lunch. We had Lunch, Dinner and Breakfast and it was just, wow!!! We would rate the stay high especially for their home cooked food. Never miss to try the food especially Neer Dose, Ghee Rice, Pandhi Curry etc.
