Villa holiday rentals in South India

My family and I had an absolutely amazing stay at Sea La Vie in May for 5 days. It was for an extra special occasion to celebrate my grandfather’s 90th birthday and the Staymaster team, especially Alex, were so accommodating and helped with all the planning for a special dinner party. The villa itself is gorgeous and exactly what we needed. It was spacious and designed wonderfully. Each room had plenty of space and again was designed to perfection. The views from the villa are also spectacular, so much so you could stare out at it all day and not get bored (and want to stay there forever). The real plus of our stay was also the staff – Chef Anupam, Bibash, Nasir and Samjana who made the stay even more special. The food was excellent and they catered to our every needs. I couldn’t recommend Sea La Vie enough – don’t hesitate if you’re thinking of booking as it is a very special place and I have no doubts you’ll also love it.

Although we modified our original stay from 2 days to 1 day due to bad weather in Nilgris. It was amazing experience to be in middle of the mountains. The property is very well kept and you get multiple options for indoor entertainment. Special shout out for Uday for being available 24×7 and in adverse weather conditions. Recommended for premium stay.

Our stay here was absolutely fantastic. Everything—from the warm welcome by the team, to the delicious food, to the stunning view over the lake—was just perfect. Kumar took excellent care of us, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

I was a solo traveler and spent a whole week in this wonderful villa. The place is very private, modern, newly furnished with perfect furniture. They pay great attention to immaculate cleanliness. The villa has its own chef who surpasses any restaurant in taste, presentation, and portion sizes. I saw cute squirrels, singing birds, and monkeys from the balcony. The signal is excellent, and the Wi-Fi is fast. This place is a wonderful retreat, a real jewel box! I highly recommend it and will definitely return!

Casa Del Mar is hands down one of the most stunning stays you’ll find in Kochi. Tucked just a few steps away from the main road, this sea-facing villa feels like you've been transported to a serene Mediterranean escape. The views are absolutely breathtaking, and we even spotted dolphins early in the morning with the binoculars provided! The villa is beautifully maintained with a charming nautical-meets-European aesthetic. Every little detail has been so well thought out—from the cozy interiors to the peaceful outdoor spaces. A huge shout out to Abraham, our host, who was incredibly kind, proactive, and always available to assist with anything we needed. His clear instructions and warm hospitality truly made the stay even more special. Whether it’s the postcard-worthy views, the privacy, or the attention to detail, Casa Del Mar is a hidden gem you won't want to leave. Highly, highly recommended. Can’t wait to return!!

To say that the Chittoor Palace stay was exceptional would be an understatement! We cannot recommend this place enough. The property is stunning, private, peaceful and FULL of character and heritage. It was the ideal place for my husband and I to celebrate our anniversary and unwind. But what made the stay even more special was the service and care offered by Milton & team. They made sure we felt right at home and got a real taste of being royalties :)….they truly spoiled us with great hospitality, amazing food and so much warmth. We cannot wait to come back!!

Photos doesn’t do justice to the place. The property and location is much more beautiful than described. Host shouldn’t consider a redo on photoshoot. Whenever I come Wayanad, I’ll stay here. There’s no debate about it. Just book it.

En Vilasam - a place which made us feel right at home from the moment we stepped in. Ashish and the team were very helpful and friendly in organising the stay. The staff at the villa were very sweet to accommodate our requests. My furry baby was a awesome time running in the garden , beach and watching the fishes in the koi pond. Definitely recommend for people who are looking for an offbeat location and stay.

We had a fantastic stay at this property! It’s exactly as beautiful as it looks in the pictures—clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. The pool was a highlight—perfectly maintained and ideal for both relaxing and fun with family or friends. The music system was a pleasant surprise—great quality sound throughout the space, adding to the overall vibe. The home is both family- and baby-friendly, with plenty of space for little ones to move around safely. At the same time, it’s equally perfect for a group of friends looking to unwind and enjoy together. The hosts were responsive and warm, making our stay seamless from start to finish. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a place that ticks all the boxes—comfort, fun, and style!

we had a wonderful & beautiful stay at villa, The villa is so clean & stunning. Staff is very polite & welcoming. Niraj & Umashankar cooked delicious food & cooperated us very nicely. Special Thanks to jayraj sir & team.....

Great place had a great time and our extra guests were also accommodated with ease. Will come back again

Amitabh is a fantastic host. He was avilable to assist is in our requirements and planning day trip. Although our trip was short, Anthony and his team were absolutely delightful to meet. Fabulously facility and great 5 star hospitality. We will be sure to visiting you again on our next trip.

We LOVED staying here. The property is beautiful and the staff is some of the best in the business. They communicated with us prior to the reservation and helped make my partners birthday super memorable. They actually went the extra mile to decorate and get us a cake. There is always someone around to help and answer our questions. I have never had a stay this peaceful and stress free. The property is so beautiful and well decorated. Stay here for a vacation that will be one you will remember for ever.

One of the best places I’ve stayed at, & I’m an avid traveller. Perfect for an extended family stay (we were 9 people). The house with its large glass windows, 5 identical well-furnished rooms, outdoor swimming pool, watchtower, and especially the projector screen in the hall, were exactly what we wanted to celebrate my mother’s 60th birthday. Special shoutout to Rakesh Bhaiya and the 3 other Bhaiyas who were always just a call away, cooked delicious food, and provided better hospitality than any 5 star property can. Will recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful stay among nature a group of 10 or so people.

We were a family of 14 and stayed at this old Portuguese village and it was an awesome experience. The 5 rooms were big and spacious, the pool is also big enough for all to jump inntogether. There are multiple places lile dinning area, Living area and the open sit out near the pool where we all could hangout. Break Fast and food that was cooked (we are Veg) was excellent and all the care takers and chef were happy to do what we asked for, also the Barbecue on the first day was excellent. Location of the villa is amazing with Shops, Restaurants and Nice party joints at 5-10min diatance. over all Angel was a great host to an Amazing Property.

beautiful property. location is very convenient. staff is very cooperative. nice place to stay .

We had an amazing stay at Kidena House. The property is beautiful and exactly as it is shown in the pics. The staff (Tej, Nitin and Ravi) were very helpful and super accommodative. The entire staff worked with clockwork precision. Daily Cleaning was undertaken. Food served was very tasty. The swimming pool and the water body add their own charm to the property. We would strongly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again.

Had an amazing stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as shown. Hemavathy was especially kind, proactive, and so much friendly — she made us feel completely at home. Her warm attitude and helpful nature truly stood out and added a personal touch to our trip. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and welcoming stay. Definitely coming back!

The property was amazing! The rooms, staff, food and surroundings were great. It’s a serene location. Love the stream running by the property

The property was good with all amenities packed. located in a peaceful locality away from all the noise. we all felt at home. The caretakers were on time and helped us with whatever we needed. lastly, the hosts, they both were very responsive when it comes to all the questions we had related to the property. We asked about a particular grilling tool, it was not available at the property, however they proactively got the tool and made it available at the property, this shows how commited and hospitalble the both are.

Suhas was responsive even outside the quiet hours and the ambiance was great with the property.

Ich hatte einen fantastischen Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft! Die Sauberkeit war beeindruckend, alles war blitzblank. Der Pool war ein echtes Highlight – toll zum Entspannen und Abkühlen. Und der Service war super, das Personal war immer freundlich und hilfsbereit. Ich kann diese Unterkunft nur wärmstens empfehlen!

The Villa was absolutely perfect for a quiet getaway — Mohamed and Tuan were the perfect hosts: super responsive and polite, always helpful and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The space is spotless, the rooms were large and kept perfectly, and the view was unmatched. As long as you have transport to get you into Kandy, it’s also located conveniently so you can reach the city easily but still get the peace and quiet of the hills. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay with more attentive hosts!
