Description

History The history of Kodianthara, located in the heart of the Kumarakom on the banks of one of the many backwater canals that criss-cross this scenic village, dates back to 1852. Under the supervision of Uthup Ittiyavirah, a magnificent house was built which was to become the Tharavadu -- or ancestral home -- for later generations of the Kodianthara family. Since then, this property, which is more than 154 years old, has been passed down over five generations to the present occupant -- Crispin Kodianthara. A Hotel Management graduate, Crispin has worked in the Merchant Navy as a Catering Officer for over 25 years. And now he brings his immense experience in the hospitality industry to his ancestral home, set amidst over two acres of palm, rubber and mango trees. The Present Despite being over 150 years old, Kodianthara house is still in impeccable condition, retaining its ancient glory. Built in the traditional Kerala style with a lot of carved woodwork, beams and stone, the house is set in a sprawling two acres of lush greenery with fish ponds, narrow meandering canals, ayurvedic and vegetable gardens, rubber plantations and coconut groves. The abode is reminiscent of a typical Kerala home with all its traditional trappings. A calm and serene environment prevails with little disturbance from the outside world. A pleasant walk under the deep shading rubber trees and the gentle swaying coconut trees is a refreshing experience for both body and soul. And Kodianthara today offers the ultimate in homestay experience. So if you are looking for a quiet, homely retreat far from the madding crowd, Kodiathara is the place you should be headed for.
