We stayed here for 2 days at the start of of our India trip and we didn't want to leave. The family, Victor, Jini, Nisha, Ajay and the little girls made us feel so welcome and at home. The grounds are stunning; manicured gardens around the homestead with beautiful orchids, stretching to wilder forest type vegetation where well marked walks... More

i stayed here in February & whilst i enjoyed my short stay I agreed very much with a polite slightly negative review which I now see has been removed? The reviewer didn't appreciate their dogs & although I am a dog lover I can totally see her point. Also the evening dining time of 8.45 is quite ridiculous. And the... More

We stayed at Tranquil for three nights this month and it really was wonderful. We were lucky enough to be there for Ranjini's birthday party to which all guests were invited. Victor, the family and the dogs are delightful and Sammy is a great fellow and will deal with any query one may have. Food is stunning and served buffet... More

We are independent travellers in our late 60's. We stayed here for five nights in February and never left the property. Victor, Ranjini, daughter Nisha and son in law Ajay all really make you feel at home in this unique 400 acre coffee plantation. There are a range of walks you can take – all with stunning views; a superb... More

This was our 2nd visit to Tranquil in the last 4 years (and will not be our last)! As before the welcome, accommodation, food and surroundings are very special. The family and Sammy once again pulled out all the stops to make this the highlight of our recent visit to Kerala. All rooms are great but the tree houses are... More

There are also two tree houses which guests can rent: these are comfortable and bring you close to tree-top level, so you may find yourself sharing your balcony with a monkey or... More

Tranquil is a welcoming homestay on a coffee plantation, Victor and his family are great hosts, the staff are friendly and helpful. Just ask and they will sort most things for you (eg laundry). There are some great walks right on your doorstep on the coffee plantation and if you’re in luck, you’ll be accompanied by Sparkles, the golden retriever... More

This family could not be more warm, gracious and attentive hosts. Tranquil is a wonderful guest house, and has some lovely highlights like the magnificent long verandah which is gorgeous to sit on any time of the day; and the beautifully colourful plant pots and garden. The food was superb with an amazing array of choice. Pre-dinner drinks on the... More

We reached Tranquil in the middle of a workers' strike, during our journey we had been stopped twice by demonstrators, and we were very relieved to arrive unharmed. Our hosts met us outside the house, and could not have been warmer in their welcome. We were greeted with afternoon tea on the terrace,, and met another couple of new arrivals,... More
