Bed and Breakfast Blackcherry Munnar

We spent very nice days with Sylvy, Babu and their family. We have enjoyed the view from the house, the delicious food from Sylvy and the kindness from all the family. The activities proposed with local tours, trekking and cooking class were perfect to discover the surroundings and specialties.

Silvie's energy, enthusiasm, and readiness to share her family home, her life story, and knowledge and insights into local life made our stay really exceptional. Although we spent time with the family, we also had the privacy of our own room. The balance was just right. We enjoyed our trip with Silvie into the tea plantations. My husband loved cooking with Silvie and learning the technique for paratha hands-on. We had all our food at the homestay and it was delicious, local and varied. The homestay is in a perfect location - in the middle of tea and spice plantations but still within walking distance to the bus stop. The view across the valley and at the misty mountains is amazing.

We felt right at home. Silvy and her family run their homestay with a lot of passion and the food was always excellent. We could try so many homemade specialties from Kerala. Silvy is an excellent cook - we already miss the deliciouse food! We took a cooking classe to learn how to make porotha :) The hike with Babu incl. homemade breakfast on top was also a great experience.

We had the best time at Blackcherry - we have been travelling India for three weeks and this has been our top highlight so far. I have nothing but good things to say about our time here, Silvy and Babu were so helpful and made us feel right as home - they’re a lovely family! The activities they provided were amazing and the food was incredible, the tastiest food we have had so far. I would recommend this place to all our family and friends or literally everyone. We stayed 3 night but 4 nights would have been amazing. If you’re visiting Munnar, this is 100% where you should stay. 10/10!!! :)))

Our hosts were very friendly and extremely attentive. Sylvie will cater for all your needs, from organising tours to cooking delicious food. We liked spending time with the family and getting to know them. The highlight of the stay was a hiking trip with Babu. It was a challenging route to start with but worth an effort for some spectacular views. Sylvie’s breakfast on top was a wonderful touch. Mountains, jungle and tea plantations, the best of Munnar in one trip. We highly recommend it. We are grateful for the expedience. If you are after a real home stay experience, look no further.

I had a great stay at the Blackcherry Munnar Homestay. The hosting family is very kind and happy to share information and tips about daily life in India, food, traditions and touristical places nearby. All in all everything was great!

This family really care for you. They will guide you on how to get there with local buses, pick you up from and drop you off to the bus. The property is also outside of Munnar town so it’s a peaceful scenic place. Great cooking and tours too! Highly recommend.

Our stay at Silvy’s place was very special. Her house is beautiful, with stunning views of the tea plantations and is in a very quiet area near the bus stop. The family is very nice and made us feel at home. They are very interested in other cultures and love to show their way of living as well. We took cooking classes with Silvy and learned how to make the best fish curry and the best Porrotha in India. It was exquisite! We also went on a trek with Babu and had a tour with Silvy through the tea plantations. Both were a lot of fun and I highly recommend them. Silvy’s food is the best in Kerala. Her pineapple juice is the best we’ve tried (a must!!), her pancakes in the morning, her pizza, her mushroom masala, and her biriyani. We loved everything because it is made with a lot of love. Every meal Silvy prepared was a masterpiece. The fresh ingredients and aromatic spices made each dish unforgettable. The room is good and comfortable, it has everything you need. It has hot water and excellent wifi. The room was tastefully decorated and had a very comfortable bed. We really appreciated the little details like the availability of tea and coffee in the room. They also offer laundry service and the clothes come back smelling wonderful. Silvy and her family went out of their way to make sure we had a perfect stay, from providing useful information about the area to offering tips on the best places to visit. I would highly recommend taking some days to simply relax at the house and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Hopefully we can also go back soon!! ❤️❤️
