Our stay here was really excellent. Our room was beautiful, well presented, spacious and clean. Mary Ann was incredibly friendly and made us feel at home immediately. She had plenty of local knowledge and was available to help with anything we required. I highly recommend Reds residency if you are planning to stay in Fort Cochin.

Initially, we were contemplating on a hotel, but for some strange reason, we changed our mind for a homestay accommodation and I must admit - on hind sight that we made the right choice with no regrets whatsoever. Everything about our stay was fantastic - The Hosts (Philip & Maryann), helped by suggesting exactly what we wished to accomplish (sight-seeing,... More

I spent my first night in India at Maryann's and Philip's place, then took some days around in Kerala, and came back on my last day at their place. I enjoyed the stay at Reds Residency. I got two different rooms, both very clean, both with AC. Maryann served great food at breakfast and tea times, and provided me with... More

Do to the fact that not all `Home Stay` residencies in the Province of Kerale - or in Fort Kochi for that matter - are referring to the same hi standard of room condition and service, I find it most relevant to put in a few word for Reds Residency in Fort Kochi / Cohin. I’ve stayed in this residence... More

Reds Residency happened by chance, I chose the place for my two day stay in Fort Kochi and I must... More
