Hibiscus Villa & Chittoor Kottaram: Discover Two Intimate Backwater Escapes From CGH Earth Saha

The waterways of Kerala form a world unto themselves—an intricate network of lagoons, lakes, and canals where life flows in harmony with nature. At the heart of this mesmerizing landscape lies a mosaic of waterside retreats mirroring the charm of the famed and iconic destinations of Kerala

Embracing this essence, CGH Earth Saha, a collection of handpicked escapes, presents two distinct yet equally enchanting lakeside retreats—Hibiscus Villa and Chittoor Kottaram. While Hibiscus Villa offers a secluded retreat on the edge of Vembanad, perfect for solitude and togetherness, Chittoor Kottaram immerses guests in the regal heritage of Kerala’s royal past. Though different in experience, both are bound by the soul of Kerala’s iconic waterways, celebrating the spirit of intimate and immersive hospitality.

Hibiscus Villa: A Private Retreat on the Water’s Edge

Nestled along the serene shores of Vembanad Lake, Hibiscus Villa is a tranquil escape designed for those who cherish privacy and connection with nature. Part of CGH Earth Saha’s exclusive collection of villas and bungalows, this lakefront haven is ideal for families, intimate gatherings, or anyone seeking respite from the fast-paced urban hustle. 

Hibiscus Villa seamlessly integrates contemporary design with sustainable tropical architecture, ensuring both privacy and comfort. Featuring three spacious bedrooms, a combined living and dining area, and a fully equipped kitchenette, every room opens to stunning views of the garden, pool, and lily pond, with the majestic Vembanad Lake as a breathtaking backdrop.

The villa’s public spaces are equally captivating, set amidst a beautifully landscaped garden adorned with tropical flowering plants. A standout feature is its three distinct outdoor sitting areas: a patio for alfresco dining, a poolside lounge with sunbeds for relaxation, and a charming garden retreat—each thoughtfully designed to offer serene, intimate moments with nature.

Here, time slows down. Mornings begin with birdsong drifting across the lake, afternoons glow with golden reflections on the water, and evenings unfold over candlelit meals. Blending luxury, nature, and tranquillity, Hibiscus Villa is the ultimate backwater hideaway.

Chittoor Kottaram: A Palace by the Backwaters

On the tranquil banks of Kerala’s backwaters from the Periyar River, an entirely different yet equally intimate experience awaits—one steeped in history and royal heritage. Chittoor Kottaram, a regal mansion over three centuries old, offers an exclusive retreat that transports guests to a bygone era of grandeur and devotion.

Originally built as a sanctuary for the Rajah of Cochin to remain close to his family deity at Chittoor Temple, this waterfront palace was designed not for ostentation but for quiet splendour. Today, it retains this spirit, offering guests a rare blend of royal charm and personal solitude.

What sets Chittoor Kottaram apart is its exclusivity—there are no other guests when we host one. The entire mansion, along with its dedicated staff, is reserved for a single group at a time. From the moment of arrival, guests are welcomed with a traditional reception, stepping into a world where history and hospitality blend seamlessly. By day, the shimmering backwaters invite boat rides and leisurely walks. By night, the palace transforms into a private sanctuary, where dinners are an elegant yet intimate affair, served by candlelight in an opulent and understated setting.

Two Shores, One Philosophy

Though both Hibiscus Villa and Chittoor Kottaram rest along Kerala’s storied backwaters, they offer two distinctly different experiences, each capturing a unique essence of this timeless landscape.

Distinct in character, both residences embody CGH Earth Saha’s commitment to intimate hospitality, blending heritage, nature, and mindful luxury. Whether seeking serene seclusion or historic elegance, these retreats offer two unique yet equally unforgettable backwater experiences.
