Vacation rentals in Kalkoonthal

Location wise it's a gem for anyone who is seeking a tranquil place to unwind for have a long peaceful stay. The river is not only accessible, the stretch is beautiful naturally paved with low height rocks. For non swimmers it's such a big advantage to be able to enjoy the waters sitting on the rocks. Surrounded by plantations and no stray animals around the property I could leave my pets without the leash for sometime. The host, Shibel, greeted us and was there throughout our stay. The food - local dishes- homely and delicious. Loved every bit of our short stay.

Staying at this property was an experience we'll cherish forever. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s a feeling. Surrounded by lush greenery and fresh air, it brings you truly close to nature in the most beautiful way possible. The sound of birds in the morning, the cool breeze through the trees, and the peaceful environment made it the perfect escape from city life. Every moment here felt pure and grounding. The property itself is warm, inviting, and thoughtfully maintained. From the comfortable rooms to the tranquil surroundings, everything added to the charm. This place isn’t just a stay—it’s a memory in the making. Whether you’re a nature lover, a peace seeker, or simply someone looking to disconnect and unwind, this is the place to be. Highly recommended for anyone looking to reconnect with nature and themselves!

We had an excellent stay at this beautiful property! The place offers great privacy, making it perfect for a peaceful getaway. The home is thoughtfully designed and true to the pictures — clean, well-maintained, and surrounded by stunning natural beauty. Out of the five bedrooms, two are located on the lower floor and do not have internal access from the main house, so you need to step outside to reach them. This might be a bit inconvenient for elderly guests, especially since there are stairs leading up to the main living area. However, for the rest of us, it added to the charm and resort-like feel of the place. A special shoutout to the hosts for arranging a smooth pickup in their Pajero, which added a nice touch to our arrival. The food prepared during our stay was absolutely delicious and felt homemade — a real highlight of the trip! Overall, it was a memorable and relaxing experience. Would definitely recommend this place for families or groups looking for a serene escape!

Sujit is a great host, he was immediate in response and very helpful. The help around the house are also respectful and kind. Location is amazing, with beautiful views. The house was clean and there were no bugs, even though we were in a lush green location, which we greatly appreciated having gone with a toddler and parents. It was a bit tricky to reach the place as google showed different route every time. But Sujit helped out with letting us know how to navigate through google. It would be helpful to talk to him before starting the trip. All in all it was a great trip! And an amazing stay!

We had a awesome experience at The Pepper Valley, everything was as per the description. Special thanks to caretakers and cook, they made our stay very pleasant and Happy. Only thing to keep in mind is you have to travel a off road patch of 1.5-2 KM from Chellarcovil Ecotourism Park point. SUVs can go easily there. We even crossed this patch at late night and it was safe. Caretakers arranged for Barbeque and Camp fire, breakfast was complimentary, home chef made very tasty North Indian food too. Stay is very beautiful, rooms were nice and clean, beautiful garden and swing too. Top view of mountain from stay which looks surreal. Overall I went there with my entire family of 8 adults and 2 kids and everyone loved and enjoyed the stay, though a bit secluded we never felt unsafe, because of top notch service and help from the staffs. Rejith shared all the details like map, phone number, tourist places and everything before the visit. Loved Thekkady and Kumily. I recommend to book this stay

This location is a bit remote but totally worth it. A stream runs by the property, a lot of jackfruits around, a small checkdam-waterfall at walking distance and further ahead some beautiful viewpoints. Locals are friendly, a young couple helped us to checkin and an uncle guided us to a viewpoint. Vivin is really kind, he coordinated everything through phone. We were lucky to have booked Sibi's cab from Kochi because they both communicated seamlessly in Malayalam and took us to lesser known sightseeing places. He got things arranged pretty well. Vivin also offered us homegrown fruits and jackfruits, his mom Sophie aunty was super warm and kind to us. This is not a commercial luxurious resort, this is a proper house where you get to experience how locals live, first hand. Different experience, totally worth it. I thank them for hosting us and wish them great luck! 🙏🏻

My wife and I stayed at Arabian Holiday Honeymoon Cottage in Vagamon and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The cottage was spotless, tucked away in peaceful surroundings—exactly what we needed. The caretaker Jackson was genuinely kind and attentive, making sure we had everything without intruding on our privacy. No fuss, just warm hospitality and a comfortable stay. We’d happily recommend it to couples or anyone seeking a quiet, well-maintained getaway.

The Villa was great & peaceful. Had great view & ambience from the room. It's a bit difficult to get food to the place as it's away from town but that makes it a real hideout. The Manager Mr. Anooj responded fast to our queries and allowed us Check In at midnight. Caretaker Mr. Rahul was really helpful did everything to make our stay comfortable. Thank you all for making our stay memorable. Highly recommended.
