DISCOVERY 1

Discovery 1, The Backwaters

With the launch of Discovery 1, cruising the backwaters has been transformed and taken to a whole new level of style and comfort. Created by the highly innovative Joerg Drechsel of Malabar House fame, and decorated with his trademark flair and taste, Discovery 1 is silent and pollutant free. It is highly maneuverable and able to get into many of the smaller canals and is not limited simply to lake cruising. Hence Discovery 1 is only available for hire for a minimum of 3 nights in order that one gains a ‘true’ backwater experience by getting deep into these myriad canals and waterways and away from the hordes of other ‘ricebarges’ cruising in the area. It has an upstairs sundeck / dining area which is partly covered for resting in the shade and partly open for sun bathing and birdwatching. There is one large bedroom, a dressing room, bathroom and sitting room downstairs. The sitting room has L-shaped sofas which can be converted into two extra beds. The staff and the food served on board are as per the Malabar House’s usual high standards. One of the largest boats on the backwaters, it is unrivalled in terms of luxury!

ACCESS: is by road from Munnar, Cochin, Thekkady, Serenity, Trivandrum and Palakkad.

RESERVATIONS: For reservations please contact your tour operator, your local travel agent, or the hotel direct.
