Homestay Namaha

Two days in paradise.

Pros: Absolutely amazing! Incredible scenery: infinity pool giving onto rolling hills and mountains covered in tropical forest with birds chirping along happily and monkeys occasionally looking out of the trees. We felt welcomed into Bala and Mini’s home as if we had been the oldest of friends: they cooked 3 delicious 5-course meals a day (no extra charges!) and Bala took the time to eat with us and answer all our questions about India, Kerala and Wayanad's culture, history and food and help us plan our activities (hike through tea plantations, visit to tea factory, hike to waterfalls, swim, read, yoga) and the rest of our travel in Kerala. The place itself is spacious, everything is spotlessly clean, modern and functional. We feel extremely lucky to have experienced this.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: We stayed at Namaha as a family of 11 from ages 12 to 70. Everything was perfect, from the kind hospitality of the hosts and their team, to the stunning accommodation and surrounding scenery of the rolling hilltops of Wayanad. The vegetarian food was exceptional and a highlighting of our stay, every meal crafted with care and skill. We would highly recommend this homestay and were very sad to leave!

Cons: All perfect

A corner of peace and beauty in Meppadi

Pros: Namaha is a beautiful homestay that is managed with great care and love by Balachandra ji and his family. The place is immaculately clean and the views and peace the property enjoys are excellent.

Cons: Nothing that we didn't like. The food is amazing and made all at home with so much love and care

Overall, it was the best stay ever :))

Pros: I loved everything about this place, especially their hospitality. They're a good example of how a host should be, very kind, attentive, always available and approachable. I must compliment the food we were served, it was so authentic and delicious. Thank you very very much! You're indeed a super host!

Cons: There's nothing we didn't like about this place!

Perfect!

Pros: During my vacation, the homestay was amazing. The food was incredible, with new Indian dishes every day. The view was excellent, with a saltwater pool under the stars or during sunset. The facilities were diverse and the service was top-notch. Additionally, they provided extra services such as taking care of laundry, offering advice, arranging cab services and excursions. The shower area was spacious and comfortable, adding to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend this location.

Blissful stay in the lap of nature, incredible food, and lovely hosts!

Pros: An absolutely beautiful homestay, run with such care and passion by Mr. Bala and his wife Mini Ma'am and their small team. Incredible views, lovely home and a jaw-dropping infinity pool overlooking the majestic Western Ghats! We travelled with our parents, and Mr. Bala and family ensured absolute comfort and care, with so much kindness! And the food prepared by Mini Ma'am - each meal and each dish was unique - right from a lavish breakfast, to the Sadya type banana leaf Kerala lunches, and the amazing dinners (and those desserts - totally mindblowing!) Each dish so subtle and perfect! Can't recommend this stay enough, and can't thank the hosts enough - we look forward to returning soon!

Cons: No negatives at all, everything was perfect :)
