    Small mosquitoes 😛😛😛

    The property was big with lush green trees and plantations of various kinds. But apart from everything, the warmth of Homestay owners to make us comfortable was something amazing and worth mentioning. The way they welcomed us at too early morning,and arranged everything was superb and breakfast home cooked was delicious delightfully tasty One must stay here to experience the warmth

    I only stayed here for one night, as I was continuing my journey. I was arriving in the evening and was picked up from the airport. I cannot say much about the location as I didn't have time to explore the neighbourhood. But it was a very quiet location and surrounded by a lovely garden. It was a very warm welcome and the rooms are spacious and had everything I needed. They put together a very lovely little basket of all kinds of toiletries. The space is very clean and cosy. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and I very much enjoyed my conversations with John. It was the perfect place for me to begin my Kerala adventure. Totally recommend to stay there.

    John is just the nicest and most welcoming host ever! Even though I could only spend one night here I had such a good experience. The service you’ll receive here won’t feel like service - it will feel like coming home. John picked me up at the airport in the middle of the night and next morning he made me a delicious, full organic and vegan breakfast. I wish I could stay longer.

    Nothing to mention.

    Hosts were kind and helpful throughout and went beyond the usual to ensure I was well taken care of in terms of meals, travel arrangements, and medicine (because I was feeling rundown). White Butterfly is surrounded by a garden full of fruit trees and edible plants, indoors the rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean.

    Nothing not to like about the place. Other then the village is a little remote unless you have wheels. The city is about 30 mins from the city by car and 25 mins from Valkara Beach by train, the train station is a short walk around the corner. Johnathan was helpful with lifts when needed.

    Friendly welcome from John and his son Johnathan. They were super helpful in happing me with lift to the mobile phone shop in neighbouring tow. And I paid for the airport transfer by John which was a nice touch. The property is really nice with a good size room and en suite bathroom.

    It was a great place to start my South India trip. John is a very friendy and generous person. I booked the airport transfer and a day trip with him and was always at ease. The room is as shown in the profile and very clean.

    The owner is great and affable.Wow! Its a hotel being a super model for spotless maintenance. The security has got better communication and affable.I am so thrilled to recommend this hotel. Its so sagacious to choose this hotel if you look for a hotel near Lulu mall and International Airport TrivandrumBut,still I'm ecstatic about the hotel.Its not extortionate.

    They are yet to install an air conditioner. Would have been more convenient but for now it wasn't really hot especially with a lot of trees and plants around.

    For everyone traveling to Trivandrum on leisure, this homestay is the best. I found hospitality, ambience and cleanliness upto the mark. Though it seems to be located a little away from the city, it wasn't challenging at all with services like Uber and Ola. The property also had a train station right behind yet no train horns blaring. I loved my stay at White Butterfly.

    The property is situated in a residential area a bit outside of Trivananthapuram but is still well connected to the city. The house is surrounded by a large garden where John, the owner, grows his own fruits and vegetables. I particularly enjoyed the fresh coconuts and the home-made chutney I got for breakfast. The room is beautifully decorated, with great attention to detail, and the whole house is very clean. I felt very comfortable throughout my whole stay. John is an excellent host who truly cares about the wellbeing of his clients. He is super forthcoming with any information you may need and helps where he can. That made me feel completely safe as a female solo traveler during my whole stay at White Butterfly.

    None. Just that the ppace is situated 40 mins from the airport. So you will need to plan well. But its worth it!

    Beautiful home with clean and cozy rooms. John, the owner, was very accomadating and also very attentive to our needs. The place is quiet with lush green garden surrounding the home.

    A good place to stay! Away from the city crowd and the hustle bustle. The room is spacious and clean with great garden view. To reach here from Trivandrum, we get regular trains. The railway station is just 2 minutes walk from the property and Varkala is around 30 minutes from here by train.
