Monthly Rentals in Sholayar Dam City

This location is a bit remote but totally worth it. A stream runs by the property, a lot of jackfruits around, a small checkdam-waterfall at walking distance and further ahead some beautiful viewpoints. Locals are friendly, a young couple helped us to checkin and an uncle guided us to a viewpoint. Vivin is really kind, he coordinated everything through phone. We were lucky to have booked Sibi's cab from Kochi because they both communicated seamlessly in Malayalam and took us to lesser known sightseeing places. He got things arranged pretty well. Vivin also offered us homegrown fruits and jackfruits, his mom Sophie aunty was super warm and kind to us. This is not a commercial luxurious resort, this is a proper house where you get to experience how locals live, first hand. Different experience, totally worth it. I thank them for hosting us and wish them great luck! 🙏🏻

This place is bliss at its best as it gives us the perfect staycation for a couple who are looking for serenity in the country side with a Bali like feel which makes you crave for more, I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone who are looking for pure riverside calm, perfect for couples !!

The stay was scenic, offbeat and perfect! Divya even helped us to arrange for the cab driver, who was warm, friendly and accommodative. Made things easier while traveling with family. Many spots/activites are available nearby spotting elephants, waterfalls, elephant ride, zip line,view points (kottapara was our favourite) Food arrangments were exquisite! Freshly prepared and tasty! My personal favourite was veg stew and idiyappam. Overall, a stay with value for money! Go for it!

We had a wonderful stay at Varun and Oolaga's place. The place is squeaky clean, hosts are super responsive and we had some of the best time of our lives munching on the delectables that came from their kitchen. Both of them are very passionate about everything, right from the place they have setup till the food they cook for their guests. They have put so much of thought behind everything - right from making their place sustainable for an eco-friendly living till putting small stickers beside switches to make their guests understand which switch is for what. Considering they had no help during the time of our stay, we were so lucky to have them as our hosts, as they must have spent an eternity just cooking for us and providing for our requests. The walks with Velu uncle were really enjoyable as well, just loved his enthusiasm! Note to future guests: Do communicate with your hosts beforehand on how to reach. The directions showed by Google can be misleading.
