Kerala is one awesome place, I guess everyone agrees to it. Of all the places you intend to visit, do not miss out on Alleppey.
Me and my wife reached kerala by taxi from Kollam ( Aquaserene - backwater resort ), and again by taxi to allappey. We had already booked the houseboat through our travel agent. The boat was ready and so were the 3 attendents.One driver, one cook and one service boy.
To new comers the places appears a bit strange, but in 15 minutes we were amidst water, exploring the backwaters of kerala in true sense.
The boat itself is nice, with a neat bedroom, clean toilet and deck :-) with dining table.
For lunch the driver stops and prepares fresh fish and 3-4 other kerela curries.
Around 5 pm , there is a specified place where all boats stay for the night.
It cannot get more beautiful than that. Open sky, water all around...
If you plan to visit kerala, do not miss out on the boat house, it's worth every penny you pay.
Do take your alcohol along. You would miss it for sure. I did :-)
