Very welcoming family, the free breakfast was filling and good, clean home, and great location.
Having universal electrical outlets would have been nice, but I used my adapter to charge my electronics.
Nice homely feeling and ambience. Friendly owner and staffs.
Freundliches Gastgeberpaar. Reichhaltiges Frühstück. Während des Aufenthalt konnte ich mich selbständig in der Küche bedienen. Früchte, Kaffee, Tee etc. teils ohne Aufpreis. Der Garten mit Hängematte
Ich buchte das Budget Zimmer ohne Klimaanlage und es war sehr warm. Ich konnte keinen Durchzug machen, weil der Lichteinfluss von der Nachbarschaft zu grell war. Besser im 1.Stock buchen.
Hezké ubytování v blízkosti fort kochi. Majitelé byli úžasní a vše proběhlo bez problému. Každý den jsme dostali jinou snídani. Vše čisté, hezká zahrada. Rychlá wifi
Ubytování bylo trochu komplikované najít. V pokoji bylo vše z ostatních místností slyšet.
I liked that it was quite comfortable, the breakfast was nice, the hosts were very helpful and kind, its location is also central, it’s a very nice place
The beds were a little uncomfortable, all the day assistance was missing,
We liked the location and its setting away from the main street , the welcoming and helpful staff, comfortable rooms and a lovely breakfast. We appreciated the friendly attitude of the staff, their eagerness for feedback to improve their services and their knowledgeable suggestions about eateries and places to visit in and around the local area.
We noted a slight lack of attention to cleanliness. The rooms were pretty clean overall but the fans above the beds were quite dusty and there was some clutter in the common areas. We had no significant concerns about it as such because we did not need the fan as it was not very hot when we visited.
Lovely staff. Nice breakfast.
Only got two towels between 5 people, don’t love having the rooms open straight onto the communal area, shower was only cold (bucket shower if you want hot)
The staff was super nice and really welcoming. Breakfast was really good and the location is great for exploring Kochi.
Loved everything about this homestay. The fabulous hosts were always smiling and eager to help, it was safe; in the middle of a neighbourhood, very quiet, and the breakfasts were great. Highly recommended!
The hot breakfasts were often cold by the time they were served. This is because they had been made at someone's home and brought here.
Petite guest house parfaite pour une ou deux nuits à Fort Kochi.
The property is very central to the beaches and a 30 minute walk to synagogue and museum. The staff are very friendly and accommodating and make you feel at home. Breakfast is delicious and plentiful. It’s very good value and I stayed there twice, the second time as an overnight stay prior to a flight the following morning
My room had a fan but not air conditioning and the fan didn’t make much difference to the heat. That said you need to check when booking if you want air con. I hadn’t noticed that when I booked.
Tout Les hotes sont d'une extrême gentillesse

I loved staying here! The rooms were well-equipped with a comfortable bed, a nice desk, a private bathroom, and even some toiletries like soap! The fan/AC both worked great. The staff was so warm and welcoming, helping us carry our bags, making us delicious breakfast, and helping us find an ATM when we had a bit of trouble doing so! The location is also perfect - walking distance from many great places in Ft. Kochi. I loved it here!
Great place to stay in Kochin. Clean, quiet and central. The staff were amazing and could not do enough for us. Very good breakfast. Walkable to the beach and shopping area. We walked to Jew street but got a tut tut back because of the heat. Try Mary' s restaurant for great food.
Mattress was a little hard for me!
homestay incroyable, à proximité de tout, personnel incroyable, petit dejeuner très bon , chambre grande, confortable et spacieuse
It's a spotlessly clean place. I really felt like I was staying with my family. They are so friendly and helpful ♥️ They look you in the eye and try to understand if you need anything else 🙏 This is definitely the only place I will stay when I come to this area again
Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt im Fort Kochi Paradise: Die Lage ist super, es ist angenehm ruhig, die Zimmer sind sauber und das ganze Team mega nett und hilfsbereit 😊
Great first stop in India. Christina and the staff are wonderful. They operate more like a family. We came the day before a strike. There was no transportation available to our next stay, which was an hour and a half away. Christina called our next accommodation and got the reservation moved a day. She also helped arrange a houseboat rental and numerous cab rides when we needed an Indian telephone number to book. The breakfasts were great. Staff really made us feel at home.
Nothing.
Beautiful, clean, well located, quiet, staff was very friendly and accommodating
Nothing really, all good
Room kind of basic, but bathroom rather decorative. Nice breakfast and kind, helpful staff. Area is very quiet, but not far off a Main Street. It was nice with kitchen privileges, so I made myself some coffee whenever I liked.
No AC, but the overhead ceiling fan worked well. Outside area had a few mosquitos, so I mostly stayed inside.
Spotlessly clean. Welcoming, friendly and helpful hosts. Lovely Keralan breakfasts.
Nothing.
Un superbe endroit, très bien placé, la propriétaire est charmante je recommande
Je mets un bémol au petit déjeuner, je comprends qu'il soit végétarien, mais il pourrait y avoir des fruits variés, et surtout le dernier jour , il y avait des petits pois très bons, mais la portion pour 3 ( on était 3 le matin) était congrue .. dommage .
Fijne locatie rustig maar toch dicht bij alles. Behulpzaam en vrolijk personeel. Luchthaven taxi prima geboekt voor ons.
Niets
Great location. Lovely helpful host. Fabulous breakfast
The stay was very inexpensive
There was a bit of a safety concern in that to access the property, you have to go down a dark alley. I did not feel safe coming and going once it was dark. The bed was somewhat uncomfortable and the shower just had a trickle of hot water (more did come from the tap). The main issue was at checkout when I was told my card was only used to hold my reservation through Booking.com and I would need to get out rupees to pay for my lodging. This led to me having to go to five ATMs to find one that was working and also had money, making me late for my next destination. When I explained that this wasn’t communicated to me the owner got snippy.
Emplacement calme et gentiment arrangé
Un homestay veut dire partager du temps avec une famille locale…Ici la famille n’habite pas sur place et vient pour l’accueil puis le petit déjeuner…dommage
Homemade breakfast which was yummy!! Breakfast delivered right on time and served on well manner.
Room and breakfast are good. Attendants are excellent.
Car doesn’t enter, need to walk long to reach the property.
Beautiful property! Clean room! Great breakfast! Beautiful accomodating hosts ☺️

Located close to the town centre, nice property with amazing traditional breakfast included freshly cooked every morning. The owners are very kind people, they helped me with arranging many things and gave valuable advices about Kochi, their warm hospitality was exceptional.
The property is very welcoming,calm ,peaceful place.

Wonderful and ideallic place at walking distance from all the great spots in Fort Kochi. We were hosted by Manoi and Cristine and their wonderful family. We had an amazing and personal experience. They really go out of their way to make you feel at home and connect with you on a personal level. It was very relaxing, extremely clean and a very tasteful home made breakfast India breakfast. They also offer a more continental breakfast if you wish.
Quiet placement, friendly hosts
Brilliant place to stay, safe and quiet neighborhood 10 mins walk from fort kochi area and 15 mins from the palace. Manoj and family team were great, had us trying a new kerala breakfast everyday, helped us out with getting our train tickets for our onward journey. Big bed, great AC and fan, good mosquito netting all over the house, didn’t get any bites inside the room. Would definitely recommend staying here. Very clean!
Host was extremely nice. Made us comfortable. Felt like home. Great value for money. Breakfast was super delicious.
The guys at Paradise Homestay go above and beyond for you. Unbelievable hospitality. I stupidly left my purse and they messaged me to say they had found it and would keep it safe for me until I returned. Honesty at its core. These guys couldn’t do enough for you. Breakfast was homemade and fresh every morning. I’m popping in on my way back up the coast of Kerala to thank them personally. Xx
"Excellent Stay! Room was clean spacious and comfortable. Owners of homestay were very nice and friendly. They prepare a homemade breakfast which was delicious. Highly recommend do visit this property and stay."
The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The AC worked well. The indian breakfast was good. The homestay is located in a side street so it's quiet. The city center is only 10 min by foot. The owners were very friendly. We arrived at night but they waited for us.
The AC was a little bit noisy.
Wonderful place to stay! The house is beautiful and although it is not far from the street it is peaceful. Nearby every interesting spots. The owners are so lovely and cheerful! The Indian breakfast is homemade and delicious! We will definitely come back and we highly recommend this place. Hope to see you soon, Manoj, Christina, Clyde and Sanitha!! Thank you and wish you all the best for your future projects!
The breakfast was very good.
The room was very hot. It was unbearable without air con.
Very attentive and helpful owners. Home cooked traditional breakfast lovely fresh juice. Oasis in busy city.
We loved our city break stay in Fort Kochi and the hosts could not have been more helpful. From assisting with late check in, to recommendations and organising anything we needed help with. The complimentary breakfasts were a lovely start to the day and the fruit was delicious! The room had good air-con and fan and everything was clean and well taken care of. Lovely patio and hammock to sit in too! A peaceful and quiet stay in Fort Kochi
Amazing home stay with lovely hosts!
Paradise Homestay is the perfect accomodation in Fort Coachin. It is very well located, has everything you may need, extremely friendly and helping hosts, tasty breakfast, and pico-bello cleanliness that is more than amazing after many other places in India...
Really like the people handling the property! Friendly and breakfast was amazing
N/A
Very friendly staff, went out of their way to help. Great breakfast. Also let me store my bag at no extra charge. Quiet pretty courtyard
On a main road, 14 min walk to old town
Loved Paradise homestay, it was like a little oasis , so green and peaceful. We had such a wonderful welcome from Manoj and Clyde , Kristina and Sanitha couldn't do enough for us , it was like home from home. Breakfast was great too. Close to all the Fort Kochi sights. Fort Kochi was so atmospheric. Would thoroughly recommend staying here 👌
Everything was great
Wonderful staff who were all first class. Comfortable room with big bed. Nice property. Good location for all sight seeing. Short Tuk Tuk ride to restaurants etc.
The property is at the end of a communal path which at first sight is unappealing. Tuk tuk drivers find it hard to locate the precise location. Make sure you book a room with AC.
Paradise Homestay is what it is called, a real paradise. Its hosts are the nicest you can ever think of. The home made continental or Kerala breakfasts are wonderful and can be taken indoors or outdoors in the lovely green garden, an amazing oasis in a residential block. Sanitha, Clyde, Christina and Manoj are not only super professional and service minded but also genuinely caring about their guests. I can highly recommend Paradise Homestay to anyone who wants a pleasant stay in Fort Kochi.
We felt right at home at Fort Kochi Paradise Homestay - it really is a little oasis in the middle of the bustling streets of Fort Kochi. Clyve, Christina and Sanitha took amazing care of us and helped us organise a backwater tour, massage and Kathakali perfomance which was super convenient. The homemade Indian breakfast was the perfect start to a full day of exploring Kochi! The rooms are very clean and comfortable. We would definitely visit again!
It was so nice to stay here while we were in Fort Kochi - a peaceful place just tucked away from the main road. The homemade breakfasts were so delicious. Thank you to Clyde and Sanitha for being so kind and generous!
I felt very much welcome and at home in Patadise homestay, the hosts were so heartily open and supporting in whatever needs and questions I had. I enjoyed the delicious Home made Indian breakfast. It was really like being in a family, also sitting in the Yard and Meeting the other guests.
Very cozy and clean Homestay in a silent and green yard in the middle of Fort Kochi. Shared kitchen and delicious Kerala breakfast, everyday new. You can relax there after exploring the city, everything is in walking distance, sights, restaurants, shops and you meet other travellers at the table. We even stayed there twice on our trip. Really a tiny paradise! The owners are always there to help arrange everything, full day boattrip is really nice and Kathkali and martial arts definetely an experience! Some tipps: If you get tired of Indian food someday,go to Canvas Pizzeria and eat fresh fish from the fisherman at Vasco de Gamma Square! It’s delicious! And: If you meet the wounded little cat outside, she loves to kuddle and is very thankful if you desinfect her wound with antiseptum from the pharmacy :/
Bring mosquito spray!!! Otherwise you can‘t ist outside. And: It‘s an adventure to rent a tuktuk to go to Munnar, but make sure everything works properly!!! (And beware of prime ride, it‘s a fraud!)
Lovely Homestay in a great area
Breakfast was very good, catering for requests
A bit difficult to find the location
We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more. The hosts Christina, Sanita, Clyde and Manoj were amazing! They were extremely helpful with anything we needed and made our stay a home away from home. The room was very clean and the location was great. We would highly recommend staying here and will definitely stay again in the future!
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Fort Kochi Paradise Homestay for three days, and it was an absolutely delightful experience. From the moment I arrived, the warm and welcoming staff—Manoj, Christina, Sanitha, and Clyde—went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. Their kindness, helpfulness, and cheerful attitude truly made me feel at home. My room was impeccably clean and incredibly comfortable, providing the perfect retreat after exploring the vibrant streets of Fort Kochi. The breakfast each morning was a highlight—delicious, fresh, and served with genuine care. The location of the homestay is ideal, putting me right in the heart of Fort Kochi, with easy access to the main attractions, quaint cafes, and the charming streets of this historic town. I cannot recommend Fort Kochi Paradise Homestay highly enough. Whether you're visiting for a short stay or an extended trip, this homestay is a gem. I look forward to returning someday!
I liked everything!
The property was very clean beds were really comfortable and the breakfast was fabulous . The hosts Manoj Christina Clyde and Sanitha made us feel so welcome and helped us with anything that we needed. I would recommend this homestay and hope to be back to visit again. Wonderful!
I would return to India to stay at this place alone! Christina, Sanitha, Clyde and Manoj are hosts so full of light and care. From helping to book train tickets, to making soul-warming breakfasts on the spot, you feel like family away from home. The house is fit out with all you could need, the location is great, and I cannot stress enough that the hosts are the best in the business. You will enjoy your stay in this peaceful place.
Our stay at [Homestay Name] in Cochin was lovely. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly, making us feel at ease right away. They were also incredibly helpful in arranging activities and booking an experience for us, which made our trip so much easier. Communication was smooth and responsive throughout. The breakfast was tasty, and we really appreciated the overall hospitality. A great choice for anyone visiting Cochin!
The hosts were very helpful and pleasant people who assisted us greatly in arranging transport and similar matters. The breakfast was very good and the property very clean and well maintained.
It got a little hot in our room in the late afternoon despite a very good fan
We felt very welcome!
The lovely welcome from the hosts! Great breakfast, clean room, great location. Highly recommend to anyone.
We stayed there for two days and very nice and excellent place. Family people must book this hotel u will feel like home. And honestly manoj sir very kind person and helped us lot.
Everything, owners are really attentionate, breakfast is excellent, you can buy water in the house at the classic price, silent at night, AC in the room, warm water
Nothing!
Beautiful place at good location Staff r soo supprtive
What a wonderful place to stay! From the delicious breakfast and clean charming amenities, I really enjoyed staying here. Also the location is really convenient within Fort Kochi. I plan to be back. Absolute steal for the price. Just note that Google maps will take you to the rough location, then call Paradise to come get you since the homestay is tucked behind the main road.
Nothing, it’s wonderful.
The owners of this place are absolute sweethearts! It felt like home away from home. Everything is 1.5 kms away from all the spots, well maintained n taken care off. Definitely a must stay place if you want to feel the Indian culture of being welcomed and catered to in the most authentic style possible! Coming back soon.
There is nothing you can complain about this place to be real.
