We had a couple of great days at Bamboostix Resort. Its quiet ambiance in the Backwaters as well as the chilling atmosphere, friendly staff and great food made it an entirely great stay and provided for an excellent refuge from the noise and stress of Indian towns.

Cochin is a warm place most of the times, so a hotel right next to the water with an amazing breeze was very welcoming. The breeze was persistent most of the day in varying degrees. This brings a cool comfort to the rooms and the resort. With plenty of open places it is place to relax and unwind. The resort... More

Amazing location, serenity personified, they really provide a personal touch. Family Atmosphere. I really enjoyed myself!! Would and have recommended Bamboostix. Ok, a tiny bit expensive and not much choice at the restaurant, but made up for it in peace, calm and views.

Myself and my husband stayed here for 4 nights, we did not want to leave. The resort is breathtaking, the food was amazing and the hosts were so much fun. Rooms had stunning views and were spotless. Very relaxing. The tours were fantastic, I would recommend it to anyone.

This place is a hidden gem. You get the best views - paddy fields on one side, a large lake on the other. I still miss the food, it's that good. We went with our two kids, and they still talk about the place. They loved night fishing, in absolute darkness. We went for long walks around the paddy fields... More

We stayed here for four nights. This place was very laid back and the staff did everything they could to make us feel comfortable. The food was also awesome but the best thing was that you are just one meter away from this big lake. The place is a 10 min boat ride away from Allepey. For arrival and departure... More
