Our Story
A Kerala Family Home, Open to the World
Veda Heritage is a traditional Kerala family residence in Vavvakkavu — a quiet fishing and farming village on the backwaters of Kollam, where the land and the sea meet in ancient harmony.
The home has been in the family for generations. Today, your host Yesodharan opens it to international guests who come seeking the authentic Kerala — the one beyond the tourist brochures. The one that smells of curry leaves and coconut oil, where neighbours know each other by name and evenings are marked by temple bells.
For spiritual travellers visiting Amritapuri, this is the closest traditional home experience available — 5 km from Amma's ashram, 12 minutes by auto-rickshaw.

The Perfect Base for Amritapuri
Amritapuri — the ashram of Mata Amritanandamayi (Amma) — draws 30,000–40,000 visitors each year from 100+ countries. The ashram's own accommodation is limited and basic. Veda Heritage offers the comfortable, authentic Kerala alternative — just 5 km away, with private rooms, a traditional kitchen, and the peace of a family compound.

The most peaceful stay in Kerala. The garden, the silence, the proximity to Amma's ashram — everything was perfect. We will be back.

Woke up to birdsong and coconut trees. Yesodharan is a wonderful host. We felt completely at home.
