Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in Vembanad Lake

A very comfortable and trouble-free stay. A couple of small issues like a leaking tap were taken care of immediately by Mr. Faizal. He is very prompt in responding on AirBNB. The location is great to explore Fort Kochi, the beach area and Jew Town by walk. However, to walk to Fort Kochi area, even though it is only ten minutes walk, you have to go through some not so clean parts.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The place was exceptionally clean, and all the amenities were in perfect working condition, which made our stay very comfortable. Special thanks to Lekshmi, Govind and their mom who were all incredibly friendly and responsive, always available to help with anything we needed. The location was perfect—within walking distance of the temple and the railway station, making it so convenient for sightseeing and getting around. Plus, there were plenty of eating joints nearby, so we never had to go far for delicious meals. Overall, it was a great experience, and we highly recommend this place for anyone visiting the area. Thank you to the wonderful hosts for making our stay so enjoyable!

My recent stay at this flat was fantastic. The room was clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated. I would highly recommend this flat to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I would definitely stay here again in the future.😊

I stayed for one night for an important call during my time here and for me it was a very worthwhile stay. Overall it was comfortable and clean and a good experience. The room is well insulated from street noises compared to many other places I’ve stayed. The bed linens and towels smelled and looked freshly washed. The AC unit was amazing and necessary, also was nice to have a ceiling fan as well. The host was responsive and able to immediately help when called upon. Most importantly, the wifi was good and stable throughout the course of a long call.

I stayed for two weeks in the Bookworms apartment. The apartment is very basic, but it is well priced, conveniently located, and the hosts are kind. Overall, a good stay.

A great stay with peaceful surroundings and relaxing getaway. Accommodation was comfortable and spacious. The host Salim and his son Ijas was very helpful and fast communicative for any queries. Any issues when notified to Ijas, quickly resolved. We would like to stay again if we needed for our next visit in Cochin.

Sophia was a wonderful host and I had a great experience at her place. It looked exactly like the pictures and the house was super clean. Excellent AC and good wifi, along with a fantastic caretaker who made sure I felt right at home. Great location, easily accessible and a lovely place overall. Could not recommend Sophia's place more!

We felt very comfortable and would love to come back anytime. It's a really great place to stay and the breakfast was a dream.

The stay was awesome, The place was perfect, The host - too good!! Anyone who wants to stay in Kochi and move around in the city, this place in Kakkanad is just ideal and nice for short and long stay. The rooms are clean and hygienic. The kitchen has all the required utensils for a family that is looking to eat home cooked meals. The bathrooms are neat and spotless. One of the best places we as a family have stayed. Thank you Jeffin. You are a superhost and best wishes to you!!

It was a very nice and comfy atmosphere. Mr Eldho was very friendly and very cooperative. All the amenities were good and neatly arranged. Smooth check in and check out. Highly recommended.

Great Place to stay, and owner is so humble and helpful

How can I even put into words how great our stay was? My friend and I stayed with Deepu and Christine in Anya's place for a month, and during that month we felt like we became part of the family. The annex is completely private and so spacious, the roof terrace is a particular highlight in the evenings. The bed is extremely comfortable, and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. It was immaculately clean. The breakfast deserves it's own songs, we felt so lucky to experience a huge variety of authentic and delicious home cooked Kerala breakfast, with coffee and delicious juices, in the beautiful dining room. Deepu and Christine are some of the most open hearted, generous, and kind spirited people I've ever met, and our heartfelt conversations will forever stay with me. Anything at all that we wanted, Deepu was ready to help, from local recommendations to help booking trips. I can't recommend this place enough and I will treasure our time there forever.

We stayed at alex place for around 22 days. sangeetha received us to their place .she is very flexible with the dates and timing, they always try to accommodate our requests. The ambience around the house is beautiful and peaceful with lovely garden and trees. The kitchen and toilet is clean with all required stuff for comfortable stay .Sangeetha shared her garden produce with us which we enjoyed to the core .she shared poultry products too .Sangeetha’s in-laws are one of the loveliest people one would meet. They were very good with my parents who would often share their life experiences with each other. Overall we had a wholesome stay at aditis nest. We felt like home 🏡.Not to forget the youngest Host Aditi is the sweetest girl. Sangeetha and her family were very cooperative, proactive and always ready to help. They treated me and my parents as family. Highly recommend and would always go back to them for future stays.

Had an amazing stay at Jacob’s Inn for 2 weeks. Anisha was a very friendly and helpful host and provided clear instructions on what to do regarding check-in and other amenities. The place has towels and kitchen amenities which was very useful. All bedrooms had a good space and looked exactly like the pictures. All rooms have A/C and fans too which is a perfect bonus. Will gladly come stay here again. 10/10 would recommend if you are on holiday here with family for a week or so as it is close to the metro station, easily accessible and has many restaurants/services around it.

Peaceful stay.. perfect way for me to welcome 2025! Its a beautiful 2 bedroom space with a coomon room n spacious verandah towards the backside of the home. There is also backwaters behind the house which makes for perfect early mornings n evenings. The best time i spent was early mornings by the backwaters - could see flock of ducks pass by, locals taking boats going to their destinations, and the beautiful sunrise hitting the waters - just gorgeous! Jeffin was amazing - very responsive, helpful, and the complimentary breakfast provided was yummy Kerala style. Thank you for all the help during the stay. If you are looking for a serene place with calming vibes and gorgeous tropical climate then please book a stay.

Great experience! the host was super responsive The place is great, spacious and pefect for friends to get together

We felt right at home. Bonus points for the prime location of the property and fast response from the host.

We had a lovely stay for 8 nights in the apartment. It's spacious and comfortable for 2 people. The apartment is clean and in a lovely neighborhood. The renter we didn't meet, but Mr. Rumold who lives on the ground floor is wonderful, and he knows everything and can help you if you have questions. We cooked a lot in the kitchen and the equipment there is sufficient. The gas stove is a little difficult to understand how it works at first, but it'll be ok. Thank you, the apartment was all in all very great and we enjoyed our stay!

I had a really cozy and comfortable stay here. The apartment is very nice, exactly like the photos. It is clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully set up. The location in Panampilly Nagar is perfect with everything close by. Restaurants, shops, and cafes are all within walking distance. The host was very helpful and made sure everything went smoothly. Would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Kochi.

We were a family of 6 staying at Abhilash’s place and had a very good experience - the apartment is huge, very well done, and extremely comfortable for a family our size. Both Abhilash and Varsha were very responsive as hosts and proactive in their communication with us. They were able to help with whatever we needed and quick to resolve any issue. Would highly recommend the apartment!

We stayed as a family of 7 and had a wonderful experience. The house was clean, tidy, and fully equipped. Although an extra bed wasn’t readily available, they kindly arranged one for us. The stay was even better than we expected. Overall, 5/5 – highly recommend to everyone!

James place was placed at a great location. he was so responsive and very helpful.

The stay was very pleasant and the host was nice and easy to communicate with. The place was very clean and comfortably spacious. Will recommend for anyone looking for a cozy stay while visiting the city

We recently stayed at this wonderful apartment with our family of three adults, one child, and two infants, and it was an absolute delight! The location is unbeatable—right opposite Lulu Mall and just a stone’s throw from Edappally Metro Station. The convenience of having such a major shopping destination literally at our doorstep was fantastic. The proximity to the metro station was another huge plus. It made commuting around Kochi incredibly easy and efficient, allowing us to move around the city without worrying about traffic. The apartment itself was spacious, well-furnished, and provided all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. Overall, this apartment exceeded our expectations in every way. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hassle-free and enjoyable stay.
