The Kayal Island Retreat is the perfect place to stay if you would like to experience the backwaters before they became popular as the island has no motorised vehicles and it is situated in a quiet area further north than the houseboats generally cruise to. At Kayal you can relax overlooking the scenic backwaters or hop on a canoe and sail past paddy fields, coconut farms and small villages.
