Boats vary from 1 bedroom to 5 bedroom. Spice Routes is a throwback to the spicy scent of a vintage era when large barge-like boats laden with spices and coir plied through the canals of Alleppey. They have been meticulously converted into super luxury houseboats for pleasure trips through backwaters. All boats are centrally air conditioned and have luxury rooms with comfy beds and large glass wi
ndows to gaze at the backwaters at all times. Each room has a dressing area, en suite bathroom, reading table and plush furnishings akin to a hotel room. We offer one houseboat only to individual bookings, so you always have your privacy. Rooms & Facilities
