I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Thom's. He is warm and friendly with plenty of local knowledge and happy to help arrange things etc.

Dorm room was clean and simple, with fresh towel. Overhead fan as well as individual bedside fan made the hot nights tolerable. Mosquito grate on the window allowed some fresh air. Clean bathroom with good shower.

There's a great rooftop with a nice breeze to keep cool. Unfortunately you can't see the sea anymore as there's a new highway. Fast WiFi. RO water supplied in kitchen.

I hired a good quality bicycle via Thom which I recommend doing. The canoe trip via him was also good.

Would highly recommend Thomas Home stay. Thomas himself showed us around his lovely home and into our room. We were given an ice cold bottle of water when we arrived :) nice room, comfortable, and clean most importantly! Big bathroom and again clean! Thomas was very helpful. He recommended us to Samanga Avyerdic massage clinic run by 2 doctors (husband and wife) he kindly took us up there in the car as he was driving that way anyway. We also went on Oscar's canoe tour. Again Thomas kindly took us there as he was on his way to church.
Great stay thank you!

We got the homestay at short notice. Uncle an aunty were very accomodating and helpful. They are excellent hosts. The place is very clean and well maintained. Rooms and washrooms were excellent. There was a small kitchen as well. The place is right across the beach. Lovely place to stay.

We stayed at Thoms Homestay for 2 nights and had a great time. The rooms are large and very clean. The breakfasts delicious, a choice of local or western cuisine. There is a large seating area on the top floor with a hammock and chairs, unfortunately we didn't have time to use it. The beach is a few minutes walk away and there are plenty of food options nearby - stalls, coffee bars and restaurants... especially Dreamers a favourite of ours. Thom was great, he helped us organise a boat tour of the Kerala backwaters....well recommended!! He also gave us great advice for our continuing trip around southern India. I would definitely stay there again!

i came to Alappey to blast my vacation. when we searched about what to do we were told about Thoms Home stay and House boat services. The House boat ride through the heart of Kuttanad was Tremendous. The places were the we went through had an excellent signature of Mother Earth.After that we came at the Home stay. Really Mr and Mrs Thomas makes you feel relaxed. Mrs Thomas is an excellent Nurse. As you all know as per biology Lichen is a symbiotic relationship between Algae and Fungi. But here the symbiotic relationship between us and Mr and Mrs Thomascannot be explained. Such a beautiful experience.
