$85 Luxury Resort in the Kerala Backwaters India 🇮🇳
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 лип 2024
- We are back in India! It felt good to wake up in our airport hotel and hit the streets in search of good, South India breakfast. Of course, we have two things on our minds: idly and dosa! Our favorite breakfast of all time. After a quick google search, we find out that there is a Saravanan Bhavan just down the street. Once our bellies are full, we head back to the hotel to pack because our driver is waiting to take us 50km to Alleppey. We are spending the next 4 days/3 nights at the Grand Ayur Resort (Sice Country Resorts) on the Kerala backwaters of Lake Kaithapuzha.
In this video, we will take you along with us to breakfast, as we travel by car and boat to get to our resort, and then show you the entire resort property. This place has so much space for the kids to run and many outside activities to keep them occupied (pool, hammocks, mini-play ground, basketball, and badminton). We also take a sunset boat ride around the Kerala backwaters. There are more activities to come and even a live cooking show!
In our next video, we spend the day relaxing on the backwaters! Join us to find out what adventures come our way.

ABOUT US
We are the Bags Packed Family: Jonathan and Kelly with our three children. We sold our home in Alaska, USA, eight years ago, and headed overseas. We are teachers and found fantastic teaching positions in India. Two years later, we moved to the United Arab Emirates. Three years after that, during the beginning of the pandemic, we made the move to our current teaching jobs in Indonesia. We love traveling and finding adventures as a family. We hope that our travels will inspire and provide our children with the confidence to meet new people, try new foods, and enjoy learning a new language. We hope our vlogs will inspire you to get out and travel, too!

That was for Granite for making that Bbal shot in 1 try ! Nice shot
Thank you so much for the super chat donation, and for being a channel member! Granite's shoot was so cool! 😎 We really like hotels that have a variety of recreation options. The kids enjoyed having a few days at the pool, shooting hoops, and playing badminton.
Glad to see the family having a laidback trip and enjoying the vacation peacefully with no rush. We also loved the kids contribution in the vlog. Please enjoy your stay, eagerly looking forward to the next vlog!
Thank you so much!
Wow your family is living the life many people dream off! Your kids are the luckiest kids in the world.

That food looks like a totally banquet. Wow! Also it was so cute when Forest wanted off the Merry go Around and said, "I'm done". 😁 I like how Granite amd Cedar play along with Forest too. Great video and fun watching your new adventures in Kerala. 😊 👍

Don't miss North East India Sir 🙏
wow back in india, Best place kerala, food, people weather at this time of the year , you'll have a great time.
@Great to see that all of you are in Kerala ( God's Own Country ), India. While in Kerala please do try some traditional Kerala food specialties such as "Puttu & Kadala Curry " , Aapam & Stew curry ( pronounced Ishtu) , Naadan Kozhi Curry , Special Kerala Prawns curry , Kerala also has a large number of Beef eaters ( definitely not seen in Northern India) .. So try the Kerala -style Beef fry . I saw that they already served you the Banana fritters , near the pool , and Payasam (Semolina vermicelli dessert ) . There is another variety of the Payasam called the Pradhaman or Ada Pradhaman , which is exclusively a speciality of Kerala . Also must try "Ela Ada ", Ada refers to a flat rice cake stuffed with grated coconut & jaggery mixture and flavored by cardamom , and Ela here refers to the Leaves in which they are steamed in .
Thank you for the suggestions!
Wowww so beautiful … my fav place in India ..
Wanna see more of Forrest... He is soo cuuteee
Thank you. :-)
Hey guys glad to see you guys back exploring India , this time make sure to visit Himalayan states and north east states of India if possible 😁 enjoy your stay
Nice day,enjoy it
I love your videos.... Waiting a video from varkala🥰🥰
yeeeeeeeeeah, a new video!
Kerala indeed is beautiful… Backwaters house boat is something I love it… You should also vist Munar it’s really beautiful place… Food is very tasty…
Thanks for the tips!
I can’t see them clearly but I think those aquatic floating plants in the water are water hyacinth! It’s an invasive weed, I’m surprised that they’re well spread out in little clusters, their population must be well maintained. butbut yeah its probably safer that way for the boats to pass. They have lovely purple flowers. Their stems are like little “balloons”
The video quality is best💓💓💓💓
wow you are teaching your kids how to vlog good good 👍👍
Fantastic, thats what im talking about. There is a place called allepey , where you can get a overnight stay on a boat, with a personal chef and a room and a personal bathroom, some of them are solar powered. They have a sadhya dish, in a banana leaf with all the fixins. But yah, also check out munnar tea estates, hiking up the mountains and checking out the sunset in wayanad, Kovalum beach and Shiva Statue. The colonial churches (vasco da gamma era), Portuguese area, jew town, fort kochi, the most expensive temple in the world (called padmabaswamy temple).
Nice video.
Love from India
My goto South Indian restaurant in Malaysia, Dubai and pretty much where ever I can find one. Good value for money and tasty also pretty clean place.
Funny, Little Big Man passes out everywhere in the most awkward positions.
