The Travancore
Heritage is a sea side resort in 8 acres of lush
green coconut garden and landscaped environs located at Chowara
- south of Kovalam, near Trivandrum, Kerala. The resort stands
on a high cliff overlooking the Arabian Sea and a long wide
beach of powdery white sand. The Travancore Heritage is conceived
and developed as a Heritage Property to bring to life the age-old
traditional architectural splendor of the region with its typical
timber houses and 'Nalukettus' with tiled roofing, which allow
for living in communion with all the elements of Nature. The
courtyard within the 'Nalukettu' in its center, around which
the four wings of the house were built in timber, bring in the
air, sunlight and the rain water right into the house making
the inhabitants live in tune with Mother Nature. Travancore
Heritage comprises of many such houses built at various periods
in the past 60 - 100 years from several locations in Travancore,
rebuilt at the site after being dismantled and transported with
utmost care, with all their architectural grandeur with fine
woodcarvings on the rafters, gables and the connecting timber
members on the walls intact.
