Established in 2010 with a humble homestay in the heart of the Kerala backwaters, Ayana’s began with a vision: to offer solo travelers an authentic experience rooted in Kerala’s rich traditions. Building on this foundation, we have lovingly restored a 110-year-old traditional home into Ayana’s Heritage Villa—a space that reflects both heritage and comfort.
Originally constructed by one of the 42 Jain families brought from Kutch, Gujarat, to establish trade in Alappuzha—a once-flourishing port of the Travancore kingdom—this house carries deep cultural history. We’ve preserved its original charm while carefully enhancing it with modern comforts and thoughtful, artistic touches to offer our guests a truly special stay.
