My wife and I had an unforgettably enchanting experience while in Thattekad, including the beauty and serenity of the whole area, Jewel Homes and of Biju, the owner and our... read more host. He did everything imaginable to make our stay a highlight of our our month and a half touring Kerala. Thattekad is a jewel discovered only by bird watchers, located on the way from Kochi to Munnar. So, I highly recommend anyone traveling in the area to consider stoping for a few days at Thattekad, where, from what I observed during our four days stay, Jewel Homes is the best place to stay. The area is not developed for mass tourism, so there are no fancy tourism infrastructure.

Certainly a jewel at thattekad... Hardly a 10 minutes walk from the sanctuary, a very quite and peaceful location, rooms were spacious and very well maintained, food was lovely and... read more the hosts were very generous and hospitable.

We had an unforgettable stay for 5 days, in Jewel Homes during the third week of May 2023. The Host Mr Diju, an exceptional personality, was very kind and thoughtful... read more throughout our stay to ensure us the best possible comfort and experience. Rooms are very spacious, well furnished and maintained at high standards. An A Class property, in a prime location for great value. The person in charge of the Kitchen, Housekeeping and all in all was very friendly, who has served simple homely food to our satisfaction. Our idea was to take a break from all our routine and busy schedules and to stay away from home. Jewel Homes was truly a Home away from Home for both of us. Enjoyed the company of Flying squirrels, Horn bills and many other rare birds around us, It was really a unique treat during our stay. Trips were arranged for us to Salim Ali Birds Sanctuary, a Boat trip to Boothathanket Dam and a jungle safari accompanied by a professional Birder Mr Vinod. Had a comfortable and safe stay in the property. We left the place with sweet memories.

Great location, really pleasant and clean rooms. Apart from rooms, the thing that makes this such a good place to stay are Mr.Diju (Owner) and his staff. All of the... read more people are incredibly helpful and friendly.

Jewel Homestay was absolutely perfect for us. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer and just stopped off for a day. We had requested Diju for veg homestyle food... read more and we were greeted by a piping hot spread of a Kerala meal served on a banana leaf. The sanctuary fence is just outside the property so we saw a malabar hornbill and lots of egrets and heard the call of a black hooded oriole in the evening as well as the morning. It's a special kind of magic to be woken up by birdsong, and this place rewards you with that in spades! We had come woefully unprepared but Diju arranged for the perfect guide, Danish, lent us his binoculars and rode down 40 km early in the morning to join us for our expedition. If you get the opportunity, please ask for Danish--- he's amazing. We spotted a pair of malabar hornbills several times, a honey buzzard, a fish owl and a wide range of passerine birds including scarlet minivets, malabar parakeets, several sunbirds and woodpeckers among others. But the highlight was something that only Danish could achieve: a rare sighting of a bay owl from just 6 feet away, and a pair of frogmouths just 4-5 feet above us.... All this was only possible because Diju went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable with each thoughtful detail that catered to our needs before we even felt it. I can't wait to come back, and this time I'll certainly be here for longer to enjoy all the birding trails, warm hospitality and the absolute complete tranquility that is getting rarer with the inexorable march of time.

Stayed at Jewel Homes for three days during Thattekad birding. Location is amazing.. surrounded by forests and a water body right in front of it..
