With love, from coco

Come home to cocoland

A thin green ribbon of coconut palms between the Arabian Sea and the Kerala backwaters. Barefoot days, slow meals, and stories that stay with you long after you leave.

Our story

Where childhood summers live

Remember summers at your grandparents’ — cycling down sandy lanes, a dog trotting beside you, coconuts thudding somewhere in the grove? That’s cocoland.

We’re a family home on the Kerala coast, and we’d love for you to slow down here with us — for a weekend or for a while.

  • Sea & backwaters

    Waves on one side, still water on the other.

  • Tiled-roof homes

    Cool floors, deep verandas, open courtyards.

  • Kerala home food

    Cooked in the family kitchen, served on banana leaf.

  • Living traditions

    Theyyam nights and kalari mornings nearby.

Stay

A tiled-roof home among the palms

Red-tiled roofs, whitewashed walls, hibiscus by the door and a sleepy dog on the step. The house keeps cool through the afternoon heat and opens onto the garden at every turn.
