Profile: Welcome aboard Desire Cruises. Houseboat Holidays designed to enchant you as you traverse deep into the heart of the backwaters on the graceful decks of our kettuvalloms. These huge yet graceful boats are the quintessential rice barges of yesteryears, which have been converted into luxurious floating homes, complete with bedrooms, modern toilets, well stocked kitchens and outboard engines. Built entirely without the use of nails, these boats are made of planks of jackwood, which are securely tied together with sturdy coir ropes.
