Budget Hotels In Alleppey With Tariff
Unwinding at the Nature’s Recluse, Alleppey
I was looking for a break from my busy schedule and fortunately I had to travel to the beautiful town of Alleppey located in the South Indian state of Kerala for a health related seminar. I was quite excited for this trip as it was a great opportunity for me not only to interact and share a common platform with intellectuals and various stakeholders in my profession, but also to take some time off way from the hustle bustle of the city life.
I booked by travel as well as accommodation for this trip around 2 weeks in advance via a leading travel portal. I booked my tickets on the famous budget airline IndiGo from New Delhi to Kochi and then took a cab to reach my destination at Alleppey. My flight took off from the Indira Gandhi International Airport, New Delhi at 7:50 am and reached Kochi Airport at 12:15 pm. The total duration of travel was 4 hours and 25 minutes. The journey went quite well as the airline offers modern amenities such as in – flight entertainment system, on – board meals on purchase and comfortable recliner seats with ample leg room even in economy class.

The duration of travel from Cochin to Alleppey via cab was around 1 hour and 18 minutes. As I prefer budget travel I searched for the list of budget hotels in Alleppey with tariff around Rs 1000 to Rs 1500 per night on a popular online travel portal and booked a decent 3 star hotel for my stay in the town. Some of the popular three star hotels in the region are:
- Hotel Karthiyayini
- Hotel Raiban
- Dazzle Dew
- Vedanta Wake Up – Backwaters etc.
- The scenic Marari Beach

As soon as I got some free time I set out to explore the places for sightseeing in Alleppey. I had always wanted to visit the famous Marari Beach here and hence I set foot for the same. This beach is kind of secluded and hence its natural charm is maintained till date.
The best part about this beach is that it’s not bustling with tourists and locals. Hence I was able to simply relax and unwind in the quiet serene surroundings of this beach. The traditional Snake Boat Races held here during August every year is definitely a thing of interest. Moreover I also visited some of the nearby attractions namely, the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary, Kerala backwaters and traditional coir- making units.
