I stayed at Maria Heritage Homes and Spa togehter with some friends during our stay in Pulicunno when we were invited for a friend's wedding. I must say that this was one of the best places I have ever stayed at! The location is stunning, between a bright green rice field and one of the backwater channels. The rooms are simple but spotless clean, and we had hot water all the time. Rema, the manager, was the perfect hostess and she really made us feel like her own family - helping us dressing up in saris for the wedding, we could choose whenever we wanted to have our meals in the beautiful decorated main house, she helped us arranging canoe trips and transportations to Kochi, and was always keen on giving us the best service I can imagine. The food was great - local specialities that you could really feel was made with love, and beer was available upon request if you ordered it some hours in advance. I would definately retur if I am in the area, and would recommend this to anyone visiting Alleppey with surroundings. Thanks, Rema and staff, for an excellent stay!!!

I am travelling to India since 25 years and on my last visit I spent one night only at MH, a place with excellent Keralan Heritage atmosphere. This wonderful old-traditional Keralan home stay with so many antique furniture and marvellous stylish items invites everybody who has this special sense for beauty, history and the soul of things to relax, enjoy the ambience in the typical quietness of the backwaters at the village of Pulincunno. The family like MH-home stay with only few rooms (fortunately), where the warm-hearted, caring and reliable staff really makes you feel comfortable anticipating one’s wishes, also offers an exchange with other interested travel guests. An excellent Keralan cuisine completes everything perfectly. Moreover MH acts charitable supporting the nearby orphanage and other projects, which is not at all surprising for me. I am happy to having experienced that gracious living with spirit and dedication.

This place is good for people who fo not live in spacious and clean rooms.The rooms are small, the bed sheets show black dirt hn ever you switch on rge fan. Powe supple is horrible, no intercoms in rooms, very poor staff support with little knowledge of languages, unclean utensils and very poor shoice of food.

Everything was explicitly wonderful from the airport transfer to the service and the food. It was like being welcomed into a cosy home of your own. The resort is located two to three hours from the airport (depends on traffic), but even so, we enjoyed the ride as we were well 'guided' around. It was our first visit to kerala, and we booked 2 rooms. The rooms are clean, spacious and well ventilated. Meals were served in original keral cuisine, and the talented chef (Mr. Raju) presented us with whatever we requested - non spicy/ veg/ seafood, etc. The manager - Mrs. Rema specially took care that we were comfortable at all times and arranged the country boat trip, motor boat trip, and a "walk-trip" (courtesy Mrs. Raji) & ofcourse Mr. Rajesh took us sightseeing in the Innova car. The resort is placed beautifully in a lush garden decked with seasonal fruit trees and we were free to choose our fruits whenever we fancied, and Mr. Jimmy was everyready to help at our beck and call. Ideal for families and groups who would like to relax away from city-life and unwind in a homely atmosphere. Our package included a 5 day stay with meals, sighseeing trip and ayurvedic massage for 2 people. My compliments to the staff, especially Mrs. Rema who went out of her way in arrangements, providing us amenities, advising us on the heritage of kerala as well as the various herbs and ayurvedic treatments and even arranged for their pick-up.
