Zostel Kochi, Kumbalangi

excellent Dinner, Pork dry was one of the best , thank you chef. Also the masala egg omlette . and yummy breakfast and very good service. Breakfast could be served bit earlier than 8 am. (internationally 6:30 am is benchmark to start) the staff are very friendly and always with a smile to care

the toilet wash basin could have been leaner. Probably your janitors are too busy / overloaded. look into it, as the cleanliness is very important with foreign tourists

Amazing place to stay in nature. The dorms are nice, common area is really great and the cafe is also affordable and nice. Specially the people, Arafath bhai and all were really amazing. Will return someday again.

Far from city, you need a scooter to access city but you can rent one.

Wir hatten ein Cottage am Wasser wunderschöner Ausblick! Betten waren bequem und Zimmer sauber. Kajaktour am Morgen hat sich gelohnt.

Leider gestalte sich die Kartenzahlung sehr kompliziert, funktionierte mit etwas Sturheit dann doch. Zudem gab es im Restaurant 95% der Karte nicht und auch kein Frühstück, weder indisch noch kontinental. Man sollte sich bewusst sein, dass es sehr abgelegen liegt, es gibt aber einen öffentlichen Bus in Gehdistanz.

Thank you for the 5 stars! We're so glad you enjoyed your time at Kampify. Hope to welcome you back again soon!❤️♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰

Toller Balkon, schöne Kajak Tour, alle Angestellten waren sehr freundlich, gutes Essen, superschöne Aussicht auch be Nacht.

Beim oberen Bett war es extrem heiß trotz Klimaanlage und Ventilator. Zweite Klimaanlage wäre praktisch.

food choices were limited , and quality was very poor

need more choices

Kampify is in a great location and a beautiful place to relax, have fun, or explore the backwaters by kayak. The most outstanding were the incredibly friendly people there who do everything they can to ensure you have a great time and do everything humanly possible to help you with any problems you may have.

View

Nice location, those who get their own vehicles should avoid relying on Google maps as Google maps will get u on a very very narrow road. Better to call the owners for direction

Food choices

The ambience was perfect for a laid-back and tranquil getaway. Nestled in a scenic spot away from the bustle of everyday life, the property offers stunning views that instantly put you at ease. The staff were courteous and attentive without being intrusive, and our stay was thoroughly comfortable, with all our requests promptly taken care of. The waterfront room we were given offered breathtaking views and a soothing atmosphere that made every moment feel special. Waking up to the sound of gentle waves and the sight of calm waters was truly refreshing. And be sure not to miss the kayaking experience—it’s a serene adventure that beautifully complements the peaceful setting.

We were primarily visiting to witness the bioluminescence, which had unfortunately ended a few days before our arrival. Since the kayaking experience was advertised with this in mind, it was a bit disappointing to only learn about its unavailability upon check-in. That said, the staff offered a discount on the kayak experience, which was a thoughtful gesture. Dinner required prebooking—which we conveyed with a coordinator during our reservation, but it seems the message was missed due to his unexpected leave. The same message had also mentioned that breakfast was included, which led to some confusion as we later did pay for it.

The location is absolutely perfect for anyone to relax, or to get away from a busy work life. Take one of the two family rooms, both are very good and u can relax and spend time on the balcony which is in the bank of the water. Those who love fishing can bring the required equipment for fishing. Kayaking is also an option here. Apart from these two rooms, there are dormitories and leisure place to play games and listen music and chill

FOOD.. Those who have read the positive things above, should prepare for the worst food (without taste, salt or anything) and the cost for the food also too high. Another drawback is there are not much of resturants available nearby also. However Swiggy and zomato is available where some restaurants are serving from kochi city

Very pleasant place. Young people managing the property. Nice and friendly staff, inside clean. The view was perfect and sooo calming. I would recommend Kampify Kochi to everyone who looks for beauty nature and peace.

Non

Stay is lovely and clean. And overlooks the backwaters. Brilliant view! Host Sajith is very helpful and guided us well. They also organise bioluminescence experiences.

The approach road is a little narrow. Large cars may not be able to pass.

One of the finest stay in kumbalangi, peaceful ambience at its best

I liked the aesthetics here. This property is neatly organised and maintained.

Right by the canals, great for doing bioluminescence excursion. Nice ambience and common area outside , in the nature

A bit far from everything else and food places

AC flow was not sufficient

Beautiful setting. Great space. Really lovely guys that run it.. come stay here!! This place is just getting going

Could be cleaner. The guys sometimes stay in the dorns. They told me this was going to change. Separation is key for professionals. However, they are super nice 👍

Everything

The location, and everything the property has to offer, the proximity to the lake, and the backyard view of the fishing nets. The shared spaces, and cozy nooks, and the exceptional hospitality, all made the stay an amazing and relaxing experience.

I loved the view from our room — it was a pleasure to wake up early and look outside at all the amazing birds and serene waters with mild fog. The kayaking was an amazing experience. Food was great and the staff was polite and helpful. They have a cute small dog too that keeps the place lively. Good books, games, and seating area available too. While the food is reasonably priced and great, one can also order from Zomato.

The top floor of the room gets extremely hot. Even after coming in winter season, one needs AC in the room for sure. I won’t blame the room ofcourse Kochi is anyway very hot. There was no TV in the room and that would be a great addition.

Kumbalangi is a laid back town, nice place for real quite time.

Beatiful location in the nature, very helpful and frendly stuff everything comfortable, rooms clean, bathroom clean. Highly recomand

Good behaviour and services I like the atmosphere

Peaceful ambience

The location is really nice, it is surrounded by nature and water, very quiet, birds chirping, there is a kayak rental possibility, large court, clothes washing facilities, very kind and friendly staff, very generous and open to many ways of being.

I can't really say anything here, I enjoyed my stay there, good for the adventurers and backpackers alike. I guess it's just my kind of place.

Good peaceful place 🥰
