We arrived at Casa Mia by surprise, being doubled booked by our chosen hotel and arrived with stormy tempers just to be more than pleasantly surprised!We had the best room of the house with its own balcony overlooking the quiet and friendly street below. The room itself was unbelievably spotless with a rare find, comfy pillows!The family themselves are incredibly welcoming and clearly well respected in the neighbourhood. Not only did they sort out all our day trips with no hassle but the obliging husband gave up his free sunday to be our personal guide in the taxi to take us to the lesser known Indian tourist spots (waterfall tour) for no extra cost. Situation wise the homestay is easy walking distance from all Fort Cochin's sights and feels very safe. Make sure you opt for the breakfast, the Keralan breakfast being the best meal we ate our whole journey! Do not miss this place, if i ever have the money to return it will always be here!.

Usha’s hospitality, Indian style was wonderful and her cooking in particular outstanding. Antony has provided quality fittings in the spacious double room with attention to detail: mosquitos disappeared over night ! Highly recommended.

Fort Cochin is a wonderful place and to stay with Anthony and Usha in their quiet and familiar house was one of our best experience we had in India . Our travel plans made us leaving – we wanted to stay, so we come again…

Thank you for this warm and friendly time and good luck and all the best, for you and your family.

We have to say that your homestay was the loveliest we stayed in.

Not just for the cleanliness, peace and freshness of your home but for your hospitality and care. We very much appreciated it and it actually felt like home! You have a perfect balance and we should have stayed longer than 1 night.

Wonderfully situated in the middle of the city, heart-warming hospitality, food prepared with love and love given openly. This house is a house away from house. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for an authentic Indian hospitality.

Thank you so much for having us stay !
