Film enthusiasts and vacationers in Kerala now have a unique hospitality opportunity in the bustling port city of Kochi. The residential property located in the prime neighbourhood of Panampilly Nagar, where veteran Malayalam cinema actor Mammootty resided with his family for over a decade, has officially been repurposed into a luxury holiday accommodation accessible to travelers and admirers.
The Four Bespoke Family Suites
Located at House Number 39/5281, G222, KC Joseph Road in Panampilly Nagar, the bungalow served as the active family home of the star for 12 years before being transformed into vacation lodgings in 2025. The villa offers four distinct bedrooms, with rooms named directly in homage to the household members: the Mammootty Suite, the Dulquer Abode, the Surumi Space, alongside a dedicated guest room. Designed to comfortably host up to eight people simultaneously, the residence retains the warmth and spatial planning of a celebrity home.
Private Screening Room and Curated Interior Design
A distinctive feature of the holiday stay is its intimate connection to the cinematic journey of its famous former resident. Guests residing at the property receive a guided tour that includes access to an exclusive private home theatre and decorated walk-through galleries showcasing artistic and film memories. The aesthetic choices and functional upgrades made while preparing the villa for public hospitality were personally guided by the preferences of Mammootty's wife, Sulfath, incorporating inputs from the rest of the household.
Booking Tariff and Pricing Details
While initial figures had circulated pegging a one-night stay at 75,000 rupees, current listings on the online travel portal Goibibo present a revised commercial rate. The entire villa is listed at a base room rate of 25,433 rupees per night, with additional mandatory taxes and fees amounting to 7,125 rupees. This brings a structured booking process to fans and travellers seeking an immersive stay in central Kochi.
Release Shift for Mammootty and Dhanush Project
In parallel cinematic updates, the theatrical debut of the anticipated action drama film Om: Chapter 1, featuring Mammootty alongside actor Dhanush, has seen its timeline revised. The venture was originally scheduled to arrive in theatres on 16 October 2026. Dhanush confirmed the postponement in September, explaining that the calendar change was made specifically to prevent a box office clash with the Rajinikanth starrer Jailer 2. An official updated release date for the project has not yet been announced.
