Premium AC Single — Private Houseboat

The Premium AC Single is a private 1-bedroom houseboat in Alleppey (Alappuzha), Kerala. It costs ₹16,000 per night (ex-GST), sleeps 2 in beds, has air conditioning on demand, and boards at the Nehru Trophy Finishing Point, Punnamada. All meals are included.

What is the Premium AC Single like?

We run two boats in this configuration, each pictured with its own description in the photos above, and the one assigned to your dates is confirmed when you book. Tell us if you have a preference. Both sleep 2 in beds and take up to 4 on a day cruise.

Who is this houseboat best for?

Built for two. A couple, or one person who wants the deck to themselves rather than a room on a shared boat.

How much does the Premium AC Single cost?

The next cheapest 1 bedroom boat is the Luxury Single Bedroom at ₹15,000, so this one costs ₹1,000 more. Above it, the Premium 1 Bedroom Upper Deck is ₹17,000, ₹1,000 more again.

Across 2 guests at two per bedroom that is ₹8,000 each, including all meals and the night aboard — the whole boat, not a cabin, and the same price whether 2 of you travel or fewer.

1 Bedroom boats in our fleet run from ₹12,000 to ₹23,000. See them all on the 1-bedroom page.

When does the air conditioning run?

On demand, not on a generator schedule. The bedrooms can be cooled through the afternoon as well as overnight, which is what the Premium rate buys over a Deluxe boat and the reason it is worth paying for between February and May.

Same boat, Deluxe tier: the Deluxe AC Single is this boat at ₹12,000, ₹4,000 less, with air conditioning from 9:00 PM to 7:00 AM instead of on demand.

What happens on the overnight cruise?

Check in at 12:00 PM, check out at 9:00 AM — a 21-hour stay rather than 24, so arriving at 11:30 rather than 2:00 PM materially changes how much of it you get. Cruising stops between 5:00 PM and 7:00 AM by Kerala rule: the boat moors for the night with the crew aboard, and the evening at anchor is the part most guests rate highest. All meals are included, cooked aboard that day.

Good to know before you book

• The whole boat is yours, with a crew of three: captain, engineer and cook.
• ID proof is required at check-in; passports for foreign nationals.
• Alcohol is not sold aboard. You may bring your own and the crew will serve it.
• The boarding point has directions and parking.
