At Vini’s Farm, we offer a whole island for your vacation. Drop in here with the love of your life and experience a whole new kind of living.
Vini’s Farm is located near Kollam and is bounded by waters on all sides. It’s one of the Best Munroe Island that is neither too small nor too big but offers the peace, calmness and privacy that would make anyone’s vacation. It’s strategically located on the mouth of backwaters, where the river meets the lake and is perhaps the only island in the whole world that is rented out to couples and families.
The concept for Vini’s Farm is as romantic as it can get! It was bought as a surprise birthday gift by Aram Paul for Vinita, the wife and friend he adored. Their love for nature has duly converted the island into a natural phenomenon. Bounded by mangroves, Vini’s Farm both sustains upon and promotes the organic way of living. Food is grown right here around the farm and consequently, you get to experience the best flavors of Kerala – God’s Own Country. Fish and poultry too are sourced from local villagers. In fact, you get to catch your own fish from the lake and have it prepared by your private chef for dinner!
Mornings at Vini’s Farm start with a great cup of coffee, a mouthwatering breakfast and a ride around the lake on your own personal boat. If you are okay with not having a boatman, we make sure you are given complete privacy. Sail around Vini’s Farm and see nature come alive. The mangrove is known to hosts dozens of endemic birds – kingfishers, herons, darter birds, teals, cormorants, egrets, woodpeckers and more. You will be seeing family of otters lazing around in the reeks or fishing for their babies. Just lie back, have a drink and enjoy the company of your partner under the canopy of nature.
Guests at Vini’s Farm are also invited to be both an audience and participant to the way of life around here. You can take a stroll around our organic farms and we can probably share our experiences. For those looking for a bit more adventure, you can go into the lake with groups of fishermen and see how trained cormorant birds are used to catch the most precious fishes! There’s a lot of adventure waiting if you are looking to live your day like the natives do! If you are interested in cooking, you can also take classes about local cuisine from your very own private chef.
Done with your lunch and lazying around, you are free to embark on the most romantic evening rides. We have boats that will take your wading through winding canals under the canopy of the mangroves to experience the unique backwater villages that Kerala is famous for. As the sun sets into the horizon, it presents the ideal setting to spend a few private moments with your partner. We love people in love and we ensue that they have the best of experiences here at Vini’s Farm.
Vini’s Farm has hosted writers, photographers, painters, philosophers and all kinds of artists and we believe that it has been able to make a small impact on their experiences. In here, you have the complete freedom to do what you love to do – sit in the veranda reading a book under the trees, putting your legs into the backwaters and floating with the tide and dream! It’s a paradise for us and we ensure that it will be the same for our guests.
