A 'boutique villa' experience: Mammootty's Kerala residence welcomes guests, tourists

Malayalam superstar Mammootty has teamed up with Vkation Experiences, a staycation-curation group, to offer a 'boutique villa' experience at his home in Kochi (Kerala) for guests and tourists who can afford to shell out the bucks.

Named 'Mammootty House', the residence is located in the posh Panampilly Nagar neighbourhood on KC Joseph Road.

Reservations will begin on April 1, as announced by Vkation Experiences, the firm known for curating luxury stays across South India. The residence has four double occupancy bedrooms, which guests can avail of for Rs 75,000 per night.

The reservations can be mailed to reservations@vkation.com. They are reachable at the following numbers: 9778465700, 9778455700

It's not yet known whether there will be an opportunity to meet the actor — recent reports indicated that he is now staying in Chennai — but the locality and the residence should make for a relaxing experience for anyone new to the area known for its pleasant ambience.

Mammootty is not the only film personality staying in the locality. Other celebrities can be occasionally seen chilling in some of the neighbourhood cafes.  

The Panampilly Nagar area is one of the busiest areas in Kochi that bustles with activity throughout the day — it is populated with cafes, restaurants, salons (even for pets), bookstores, boutiques, and clinics.

Adjacent to 'Mammootty House' is an establishment run by another veteran actor's family — the Live-In Style salon, managed by actor Kunjan's wife Shobha.
