We stayed in several top-rated Tripadvisor home stays during our travels through Kerala - they all had in common exceptionally friendly hosts and levels of service. Beena's was no exception, as the other reviews say, and we stayed here twice. The rooms are very simple, and bathrooms are typical homestay bathrooms - cold shower, not separate from the rest of...

The food at Beena homestay is the best we had while in India! LOCATION: Located in Fort Kochi, within easy walking distance... More

Beena and her family are wonderfully welcoming. The food, prepared by Sudi, is truly delicious. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Our many questions were always answered with kindness and many good suggestions which made our visit to Fort Kochi such a happy experience. We would strongly recommend this homestay.

Beena Homestay was a good as everyone described. Simple, very clean, spacious. We paid extra for a/c and glad we did. Nice to have the respite of an a/c room. Beena and her husband are very welcoming and acommodating. Offered great advice about our travel elsewhere in Kerala and called the house boat owner to ensure we were happy with... More

My husband and I spent 2 nights at Beena Homestay, and we really enjoyed it. She and her husband are incredibly happy, friendly, generous hosts. They were very helpful with regards to directions, hours, and suggested sites. And watching them with their granddaughter was a real treat; they're so cute together! With regards to the accommodations, our room was modest,... More

Stayed 3 nights in Beena, traveling with a friend. Beena and her smiley husband were super friendly, first arranging a taxi (800 Rs) to pick us up from the Kochi airport, giving water bottles, allowing us to switch to a different room because of a noisy neighbor. The non-ac rate was 1200 rupees, which included a delicious home-cooked breakfast and... More
