About Home

  • Amaya is a 300-year-old heritage villa in Kannur. Meticulously restored to its original glory, this 5-bedroom heritage homestay is nestled amidst the calming greenery of Kerala.
  • The historic estate with a stepped pond and a traditional Kerala-style spa has witnessed numerous historic events, including an attack by Tipu Sultan.
  • This villa is located 15 minutes (7 km) away from Kannur International Airport, 3 hours (92 km) from Kozhikode and 4.5 hours (180 km) from Mysore.

  • Guests get fresh farm-to-fork meals, thanks to an exhaustive list of vegetables and spices like Malabari pepper and turmeric grown on-site, eggs provided by the on-site ducks and chickens and fresh organic milk from the cows on the estate. It's the only petting zoo within a private estate in South India
  • Another must-do when at Amaya is visiting the Sarpa Kavu, the abode of snakes at twilight. This sacred snake cove is where the deity of the estate resides (sans any snakes, don’t worry!).
