I stumbled upon Thoms homestay by accident after a dorm close by was closed for renovations. I had a comfortable stay. The dorms are clean, quite and feel safe. Thomas and his family were very lovely and always greeted me. Thom was very helpful and helped organise tuk tuk and kayaking tour. I highly recommended the kayaking tour. Thanks Thomas and family.

The dorm room is clean, comfortable, affordable and convenient. The owners are very nice and accommodating. I only stayed one night but I would have happily stayed longer. I had a great experience, I would definitely recommend.

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.

We stayed at Thoms place two nights recently. It is highly recommended. Not only for the excellent accomodation but also for Thoms advice and organization of day trips. The common kitchen area is a nice bonus as is the provided tea and coffee. This place is not in the center of town but one block from the beach. There is not a plethora of shopping or restaurants nearby but an adequate number of low to high end food places. I’d certainly stay here again. Thanks for wonderful memories Thom

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!

Amazing place to chill and rest. The house owner is a nice being and helps you with local travelling. You should opt this place if you would like to visit Alleppey beach. There is a bar close to the house too and reatraunts,plus it is right next to the beach.
