We are a family run homestay on the beach front in Kannur, North Kerala, India. This charming place in a quiet and secluded area, very close to a pristine and mostly deserted Thottada beach is also situated by a small river. On a beach amongst lush green coconut groves and with a view of the sea, it offers the best in food, relaxation and comfort. With 4 double rooms and a triple room, the beach house has been every travelers delight for over a decade. All the rooms offer a breath taking view of the beach and the sea. Meals are set and conducted at a communal dining area at fixed timings. There are no room service, TV or porters. Wifi is available. Activities include walking on the long stretch of golden beach, among thick coconut plantation through the village, basking in the sun and sand, bird watching, boating, angling, sightseeing or simply watching the village life go by.
We were stunned right from the beginning from the amazingingly beautiful property. The hosts Nasr and Rosie made us feel extremely welcome and always shared the best recommendations for our stay in the area aswell. We enjoyed the daily talks at a super delicious breakfast and dinner table, not to leave out the delicious fish we had every evening, which was the catch of the day from the local fishermen. We will never forget the superb experience we had at this place and highly recommend a stay at Kannur beach house if you are looking for a laid-back and truly honest and heart warming India experience at the beach. Nasr and Rosie took very good care of us and we wish them all the best and will definately try to come back as soon as possible!!

This is one of the most peaceful places I've stayed in. The house is old, there are only a few rooms, meals are communal, but for the rest of the time, you're blissfully alone. The beach is a very short walk away and the view from the room is fabulous. The food is really nice and the hosts Rosy and Nasser have a nuanced way of taking care of their guests, being generous with their company while also allowing each one their space.

I returnd to KBH after 5 years, the atmosphere and hosts were as friendly as I remebered. Beautifully located in a lush environment about 200 meters from the Ocean, the place offers peace, relaxation and stunning sunsets. Together with fantastic home-cooked Keralan breakfasts and dinners, many good discussions took place with the hosts and other guests during the meals. The hosts, Rosi and Nazir, have created a great meeting point for us guests, possibilities to share travel experiences, talk about indian politics or any subject that would come to mind. They were ever so helpful and supportive in organising trips, giving advise etc to meet our needs. Thank You Rosi and Nazir!

We only had two days at Kannur Beach House, cut short by a cancelled flight from the new Kannur airport. Our room and bathroom were simple, but totally fine and we absolutely enjoyed sitting outside, watching the lagoon and the sea. The beautiful beach is only a stone‘s throw away. During mealtimes we enjoyed mingling with the hosts and other guests, who all had interesting storiest to share. Breakfast and dinner is eaten in the outdoor dining area. The food was always varied and absolutely delicious. Thank you Rosie and Nazir, we hope to come back some day.

We had a lovely stay at Kannur Beach House. The place was so relaxing and serene. Rosi and Nazir were the perfect hosts. Great conversations over breakfast and dinner and relaxed languid days by the beach. Absolute delight and so relaxing. The beach is beautiful and the village is so quiet and peaceful. Rosi is amazing at arranging all sorts of trips from yummy cafe recommendations to handloom centre visits. We loved everything about our stay. We will be back. Thank you Rosie and Nazir

The stay here was so wonderful, that we were literally depressed when we had to leave. The quiet, lovely athmosphere, the kind and intelligent hosts and the very personal way, in which they welcomed us, was one of a kind. Everybody eats the homecooked meals together, which are super delicious and bring all the guests and hosts together, creating a feeling of a home away from home. The beach is secluded and beautiful, and the close by mangroves filled with life, especially birds of great variety. Don‘t hesitate to come, and stay for as long as you can!

It was a great pleasure to stay in this guest house at Thottada Beach. Wonderful nature, mangroves, lots of interesting birds, a great beach with only few tourists. Very friendly and open minded housekeepers, very familiar atmosphere, simply good!
