The house itself dates back 150 years and retains its original architectural features, mostly in teak, with splendid wood carvings. There is also a fine Ara, the timber storeroom used in former times for the golden harvest of rice – golden because the island's lush green paddy fields turn gold at the time of the harvest. The en-suite bathrooms have been tastefully done and open to the sky above to give you a feel of being truly closer to nature at Emerald Isle! All meals are served in dining room. Please ask us if you want to have any special facilities like Ayurvedic treatments or houseboat rides.
