Our Story

A fresh escape in the hills of Idukki

Riverside Paradise is a brand-new homestay built into the green slopes of Kunchithanni, a short drive from Munnar. Everything here is new — the rooms, the beds, the kitchen — and everything is kept spotless, because with only five rooms we can afford to be particular.

What we didn't build new is the hospitality. That's the Kerala kind: you'll eat what the family eats, cooked fresh, and someone will always know where you've gone walking and when to expect you back.

Wake to panoramic valley and forest views from your own balcony. Spend the day trekking a tea-plantation ridge or learning to make a proper appam. Come back to a campfire on the rooftop. That's the whole idea.

We did the trekking package and the cooking class — both were brilliant. A brand-new property that somehow already feels like home. Highly recommend for a Kerala hill escape.

he rooftop campfire under the stars was magical. Very reasonable pricing for what you get — modern rooms, great service, beautiful nature. We'll be back.

Booked on a Friday, arrived Saturday, didn't want to leave Sunday. The balcony view at 6am is worth the drive on its own.
