What They Say About Us

We had a truly memorable stay at Ambadi 3 BHK Villa near Cherai Beach. The villa itself is beautiful—spacious, clean. The private pool and garden were perfect for relaxing, especially with the serene view of the beach is beautiful. The location is ideal—just a short walk to Cherai Beach, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and secluded. The hospitality was exceptional by the care taker

Stay in Ambadi Villas for me in word was ‘ magnificent’. The owner Mr and Mrs Ambadi are down to earth people takes care of their guest as if they are family member. The place is rustic situated on the banks of back waters with calming view . Breakfast and Dinner are varieties of Kerala cuisine palatable to the tastebuds. If you are looking for a place away from city life and with good amenities and food then do check out Ambadi Villas .

Idyllic location overlooking the backwaters with lush gardens and a pool with a view, it’s the perfect place to unwind. The beach is a short stroll away. Shaiby and Ambadi are charming hosts and made us feel like family, making sure we had everything we needed. Home cooked meals were consistently delicious, and they have a lovely team of people assisting them.

Our rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable with sit-outs. Ayurvedic massage and treatments are available if desired. Altogether a great find.

We had such a lovely stay at Ambadi Cheri! We spent a week here and honestly, it felt less like a homestay and more like being welcomed into someone’s home.
Shaiby and Ambadi are wonderful hosts — incredibly warm, kind, and genuinely caring. From the moment we arrived, they treated us like family. Their hospitality is effortless and heartfelt, which made our stay truly special.
The rooms were clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained. Everything felt cozy and relaxed. The common dining areas are beautiful — perfect for slow breakfasts, conversations, and just soaking in the peaceful vibe of the place.
One of the absolute highlights? The adorable rabbits! Such a charming and unexpected touch that added so much character and joy.
The swimming pool is cozy and inviting — great for unwinding after a day out. And a special mention for the beautiful sashay they arranged for us in the evening — such a sweet and memorable gesture.
This place has a calm, homely energy that’s hard to find. If you’re looking for a stay that’s peaceful, personal, and filled with genuine warmth, Ambadi villas at Cheri is a gem.

As you walk into Ambadi’s Villa you will experience a certain peace. There’s a spot facing the backwater that has a windchime…a deliciously meditative experience. Ambadi and Shaiby are wonderful hosts. They are gentle and kind and take care to accommodate requests where possible. Perhaps the most beautiful thing is the simple, tasty and absolutely flavourful food that was served. I stayed there for 8 peaceful days and highly recommend Ambadi’s Villa if you’re looking for a great homestay experience just pick this one. You’ll love it!

The view from the room’s balcony is simply breathtaking—wide expanses of calm water, bordered by lush greenery and cheena vala( Chinese fishing net). The ever-changing reflections of the sky on the water make for an incredibly peaceful experience, especially at sunrise

The villa has lovely views of the backwaters, the hosts are lovely people, always willing and available to assist. The food was flavourful and authentically Indian. Absolutely loved the sound of the wind chimes in the mornings.

We have stayed in Ambadi villas multiple times and we just loved it. One of the best resort I have visited till now. Great staff who knew how to serve the customer. Caretaker mahesh was very helpful and took care of everything. The room was well equipped and the service was excellent. From the balcony, we could view the sea and feel the cool breeze.
The location of our room was absolutely perfect. As soon as you come out of the resort, we just need to cross the road and there is a direct path leading to the beach. The scenery was beautiful and it was a relieve to walk in such a quiet and peaceful environment. Would recommend for sure🙌

Ambadis Villas and the owner made me fall in love with India. The apartments are located right on the shore of the Arabian Sea. The food here is amazing. I have never eaten tastier fish anywhere. On the day of departure, the owner treated me to lobsters. It was amazing. I will definitely come back next time.

I had an exceptional stay at Ambadi Villas. The hospitality was top-notch, and the food was absolutely delicious. The property was serene and relaxing, enhanced by the beautiful garden and backwater view. Caretaker Mahesh was very helpful and took care of everything. The homemade food was delicious and added a special touch to the overall experience. They prepared whatever we requested other than their regular menu.

It was awsome 3 days at Ambadi’s Villas. Real pleasure to share the warmth of tgat hospitality. The whole family, staff and even the tiny rabbits and birds were treating us from their heart. A mindful and really soothing ambiance..quality of food and taste of were competing. No words to express the complete experience. Thank you so much for providing us this wonderful treat.

I recently stayed at Ambadis and had a wonderful experience! The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment we arrived. The room was spotless, spacious, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I especially appreciated the cozy bed and the beautiful view from the balcony..Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable stay. I would definitely return… 😍
One of the highlights was the stunning lake view from our room – waking up to the calm, sparkling water every morning was a dream…We also enjoyed the dinner which had a great selection and was served in a lovely area overlooking the lake…..

NAYANA NAGENDHRAN

Came with family. It is very peaceful, you live within wilderness and at same time close to all the amenities. Mahesh at the place made our stay a breeze. He was prompt to help and at times went out of the way. The food was very hygienic every time we had it.

RAHUL SIDI

The experience was more than just a place to stay – it is a place to rejuvenate and to feel whole again. There is a special energy to this place .
I had the massage and it was the best massage I have had EVER … so I had one everyday!
The pool is also amazing to have, the food is simple but good. And the access to the river to paddleboard was great!

Ambadi villa in Cherai beach is lovely small place with super views of the back water. The rooms are basic but well maintained I feel. We had opted for non AC room and it was good enough.
They were not preparing any food as such instead ordering it from nearby restaurants. The best part about the villa is the view, one can relax and soak up the views. Also there is lot of greenery inside which just makes it beautiful and it’s just a few minutes walk to the beach. All in all a good place to stay and enjoy Cherai beach.

I visited Cherai Beach Kochi for the 1st time this year and spent 7 wonderful days at Ambadis Villa Cherai Beach which became home during my stay.
Located at the edge of the backwaters and a few feet away from the ocean, I had the luxury of watching a blood orange sun rise from my balcony every day! The peace and tranquility was sublime!
But the best part was the unconditional care and service of Mahesh and Shaiby the proprietress who ensures her guests are looked after in the best possible way. Whether it was the cleanliness of the place, warm food or a trishaw or cab to take us around.
Delighted with the experience & certain I will be back!

“Me and my wife are coming here for the second time, and that is not by chance. The calm lake view, the privacy, and the overall vibe make this place special. Last time itself we felt relaxed and comfortable, so returning was an easy decision. Waking up to the lake, spending quiet evenings together, and feeling completely disconnected from noise is exactly what we wanted again. This villa feels less like a stay and more like a place we belong to. We will definitely come back.”
