Frequently Asked Question

At Eden Cabana, we believe that travel should be more than just a change of scenery—it should be a change of pace.
Our stay is designed to strip away the complexities of modern life, leaving you with the simple joys of nature and genuine human connection.

Do I need prior kayaking experience? Not at all! Most of our guests are first-time paddlers. We provide a basic briefing on paddling techniques and safety before you hit the water. Our backwaters are calm and current-free, making it the perfect environment for beginners.

Is kayaking safe?

Yes, safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality life jackets (PFDs) for every guest, and our tours are led by experienced local guides who know the waterways intimately.

What is the best time for kayaking?

We highly recommend our Sunrise Tour (6:00 AM) for still waters and birdwatching, or our Sunset Tour (4:30 PM) for the golden light over the lake.

Are children allowed to kayak?

Yes! Children aged 10 and above can usually paddle their own kayak, while younger children can sit in the middle of a double or triple kayak with their parents.

What should I wear and bring?

  • Wear : Comfortable, quick-dry clothing (nylon or synthetic). Avoid heavy denim.
  • Bring : A hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a waterproof bag for your phone or camera.

What are the Check-in and Check-out times?

  • Check-in : 01:00 PM (early check-in subject to availability).
  • Check-out : 11:00 AM.

Is there Wi-Fi available?

Yes, we offer complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the property, so you can stay connected (or share your kayaking photos!) while enjoying the serenity of the lake.

Do you provide meals?

Yes! We offer authentic, home-cooked Kerala meals. A traditional breakfast is typically included with your stay. Lunch, evening snacks, and dinner (including fresh local seafood like Pearl Spot) are available upon request for a nominal fee.

Is the property pet-friendly?

Yes, Eden Cabana is a pet-friendly homestay. We welcome your furry companions, though we ask that you inform us in advance so we can prepare accordingly.

How far is Eden Cabana from the town center?

We are located approximately 3.4 km from the heart of Alleppey (Punnamada area). This distance ensures a peaceful stay away from the noise, yet is only a short 10-minute rickshaw ride from the main town.

Is there parking available?

Yes, we provide free on-site parking for guests traveling with their own vehicles.

What if it rains?

In Kerala, a little rain is part of the charm! Kayaking is still possible during light drizzles. However, in the event of heavy rain or strong winds, we may postpone or cancel tours for your safety.

How do I make a booking?

You can book directly via our website, WhatsApp, or major travel platforms. We recommend booking at least 24 hours in advance, especially during the peak season (October to March).
