Vala House is located at the very end of Cherai Beach, a quiet and serene location, perfect to unwind. We stayed there for 7 nights and felt very welcome throughout our stay. The room was tidy and clean, with a beautiful view on the backwater pond and the sunrise. The staff were exceptionally caring and forthcoming: Lalu took care of our laundry and even got our torn clothes fixed at the tailor, Vishnu organised a trip to Allepey for us. And above all the breakfast was delicious with classic home cooked Kerala meals and fresh fruit and eggs. Cherai beach is a stroll away and a small beach can be reached within minutes. Can highly recommend a stay at Vala House if you’re looking for a quiet and beautiful getaway in a non touristic part of Cherai.

From the hotel to the beach was .60p which was cheap it’s a far superior beach than the one at fort kochi that beach was dirty and rubbish compared to cherai beach . The beach wasn’t crowded except wkends but it was full of colour from the ladies saris . Beautiful it was . It’s a long beach and lovely warm sea plenty of places to just sit and read or just tan . The locals if you’re friendly just want to have a picture taken with you they are so friendly . I wish I had stayed here instead of fort kochi . Go to lilliput restaurant it’s amazing . And if your lucky like me you will see dolphins , truly amazing that was

Cherai Beach is a great place for a wind down after the massive hassle of obtaining visa and long flight. Food and drink very inexpensive but do not consume alcohol with your meal as it comes in disguise and may cost more than your food bill!! You will struggle to get a good cup of coffee so take your own brand with you. We recommend Waves Restaurant and there is a hotel (the only one) in Cherai Junction. Fab and exciting public bus ride to Vypen from Cherai Junction then 12 rupees (14p) there and back on the ferry over to Fort Cochin....excellent cheap as chips day out. Auto tuktuks are great from Cherai beach to Cherai Junction.

Not really worth a visit.
Not really worth a visit. Neither the beach nor the sea is particularly clean and the beach is pretty narrow. This may be a result of recent storm damage. It's a local resort so not appropriate to wear swimwear. We enjoyed watching families up from the city playing on the small stretch near Cherai Beach Junction but otherwise it's not a particularly attractive or interesting beach.

The beach is very long and really nice to take a walk.
The beach is very long and really nice to take a walk. I really enjoyed it. If you are looking for a beach with beach bars etc, then that’s not it. The beach is limited by huge stones which are Thread to prevent the high waves from flooding the street beyond. But it offers some spectacular views. Not many foreign tourists in April which is not a problem but just in case you expect to find other backpackers, there aren’t any… overall it was really worth visiting this beach
Despite being a couple of km's from the main sandy beach, the hotel is directly on the seafront, with rocks at the rear which can be scaled by fitter people than me to reach a narrow stretch of sand when the tide is low. Plenty of loungers and chairs to enjoy the views. Staff really friendly and helpful. Ample breakfast included and food cooked on premises (for a fee) for evening meals. Nice 360 veranda where you can sit as the sun sets or rises.
We loved our stay at Cherai Beach Residency. The hosts/owners were charming and always helpful and cheerful. It is small, and for us (a family with 2 teenage boys) it was perfect. Rooms were airy, clean and had great views. The beach was clean, quiet and perfect for safe swimming. It is a quiet hotel along a quiet stretch of the beach. For us a total delight, yet with other restaurants and sights a short auto rickshaw ride away.
We stayed there 3 days while visiting Cherai beach . Stay was excellent and budget friendly. Spacious room, equipped kitchen, dining area and a balcony. Kitchen was having gas stove and essential kitchen vessels. We purchased some groceries and cooked ourselves. Good room, clean bathroom with hot water, friendly staffs. Walking distance to Beach. Make sure to have a night walk and dinner at the beach side hotels.
The homestay family is awesome, friendly and helpful. We felt like part of it. They have lots of useful tips for trips and answers to daily life in India. The garden with a swing, shade and animals is a joy. It is the perfect mixture between beach life and relaxing in a beautiful surrounding. We would always come again.
Thanks for everything, Sudeesh.
Very nice homestay !
Very friendly & helpful family & with a beautiful room upstairs of their home. It is an independent room with a terrace. The room is new & have all the comodity with a good bathroom. Very good & very happy with. The food ( dinner & breakfast) was very good. Lovely stay, home near the quiet beach.
We had a lovely time at the Cherai beach villa. The location is perfect, for both sunrise and sunset, and the beach is beautiful (with the added benefit of not being crowded!).
Unni is extremely helpful and responsive. And we all really liked Chechi who prepared a wonderful breakfast for us every day.
It was over my expectation. Because booking amount was comparatively less. But room was spacious ,neat and clean. And main attraction is location. It is very close to the beach and in the main center of Cherai Beach. Staff are very helpful. Food was very good especially the BBQ Pizza.
the location is incredible. I stepped out on that balcony and felt myself immediately relax. The staff is so friendly and so eager to provide every comfort. and the cleanest bathroom I have encountered in India- much better than some fancy hotels I’ve stayed at!
Had a wonderful experience at Vala House. The staff was exceptionally nice and helpful. The rooms were very spacious, nicely decorated and clean with a beautiful view. If you're in Cherai beach area Vala house is a great place to stay.
Excellent property. Hotel owner nature and behaviour was excellent and supportive. She arranged food for us at night. I will suggest to take a visit to this beautiful property. Looking forward to again visit the hotel at the earliest.
The calmness in that place, the decor, the ambience, excellent service by the staff especially Rishad, the exclusive area for yoga and meditation, truly kept near to the nature, scenic view of backwaters ...Altogether its a gem.
The rooms were big, clean and well maintained. The staff were awesome, treated us really well. Food (They arranged Lunch and Dinner from a nearby place) was exceptional, especially the seafood.
