Beaches, mountains, and a gloriously green stretch of land in between rich will lakes, backwaters, rivers, and everything good God had blessed the earth with—Kerala, God’s own country—is a marvel! Since ancient times, Kerala has been a hub of merging cultures, trade, and tastes; centuries later, today, this small stretch of land on the southern tip of India still mesmerizes travellers from around the world with its sheer beauty, the depth of culture, the richness of history and art, as well as its heartwarming hospitality.
The financial, commercial, and industrial capital of Kerala, Kochi used to be a major port in the Middle Ages, and it was also home to one of the first European settlements in India. Kochi today is one of the most accessible cities in Kerala for international and Indian travellers.

We welcome you to Baron’s Villa, a 15th-century structure embodying the Indo-Portuguese architectural style, located in the heart of the legendary Fort Kochi town.
