Kerala has its own charm. It has the unique geographical features that have made it one of the most sought after tourist destinations in Asia. The backwaters, hill stations, beaches, wildlife etc. whatever may be the requirment of a visitor, it has everything to offer. Kerala has the most advanced society in India. It has hundred percent literacy and World-class health care systems. Kerala is one of the most cleanest states of India.
An interesting sight our guests will come across while in kerala is that, no house exceeds the height of a coconut tree, a fact that cements the simplicity of a keralite!
The erstwhile Malabar region is now being attracted to visitors largely because the area is less explored giving a virgin look to the backwaters, hillstations and beaches. The beaches in North Kerala(Malabar) are less crowded.The hotels available in the area have all been praised by the guests for their incomparable hospitality. Central and Southern parts of Kerala are already well known and need no introduction.
