THE IMPORTANCE OF LIVING IN MUD HOUSE

Natural materials reduce allergens and toxins, promoting better respiratory health.

Healthier Indoor Environment

Connection to the Elements

The tactile feel of mud walls, the gentle scent of bamboo, and the sounds of the sea combine to create a sensory-rich environment that soothes the mind and body.

With superior insulation properties, mud houses keep you cool in summer and warm in winter, reducing energy consumption and supporting a greener planet.

Eco-Conscious Comfort

Natural Humidity & Thermal Control

The ingenious combination of mud and bamboo naturally regulates humidity and temperature, creating a refreshing, cool atmosphere even on the warmest coastal days. This means you enjoy comfort without the need for artificial air conditioning.

Mud houses are renowned for their minimal environmental footprint. By using locally sourced, biodegradable materials, Sumakara stands as a testament to sustainable architecture that respects and preserves the beauty of the shoreline.

Sustainable Living

Feel the Nature Breathing

Every wall and corner of Sumakara invites you to connect with the earth. The breathable materials allow fresh air to circulate, making the house feel alive—offering a sense of calm and well-being that modern constructions rarely provide.

A KALPPAKA BEACH VILLAGE AT VALAPPAD

A 3 km stretch of pristine, white sandy beach forms the heart of Kalppaka Beach Village at Valappad, where the gentle whisper of the Arabian Sea sets the rhythm of each day. Here, time seems to slow as sunlight dances across endless sands and playful dolphins arc along the horizon. The air carries the mingled scents of salt and distant spices, while traditional catamarans glide by, weaving the stories of the sea into the tranquil morning.

Barefoot wanderers lose themselves in the poetry of long walks and the cool embrace of the ocean, while the shade of swaying palms and thatched huts offers a sanctuary for reflection and renewal. In this coastal haven, every moment is an invitation to rediscover harmony—within yourself, and with the world around you.

How can I begin to describe my time with Poveda... It was simply life-changing! I always imagined that Bali would be a breathtaking destination, but thanks to Poveda, I was able to not just experience the culture, but have once-in-a-lifetime memories. I got so much more than I ever anticipated from my holiday.
