About Us Welcome to Poovar Heritage Homes. Poovar, named by the great ruler Martandavarma of Travancore, signifies the river of flowers. Poovar Heritage Homes invites you to experience traditional Travancore architecture, highlighted by the 200-year-old Paithrugam Nalukattu. These individual cottages, or Nalukattu, offer premium facilities in the original Kerala style. The rooms are secure, well-ventilated, and well-furnished, with spacious bathrooms featuring hot and cold water facilities. The Nalugatta Paitrikam is located about 400 meters from the southernmost river of Kerala, Neyar, where it merges with the Arabian Sea, creating scenic beauty at Poovar. Poovar, situated on Neyar's bank, unveils hidden history and welcomes you to a mesmerizing world of nature's beauty. Boating through Neyar's backwaters leads to a new realm of greenery, mangroves, and a golden sand beach, offering an exploration of traditional tastes and flavors to be cherished in your memories for a long time.
