 RAHEEM RESIDENCY
Raheem Residency’s heritage is rich and genuine. Showing definite British colonial influences in its design, its history is documented back to the end of the 19th century when Mr Raheem’s ancestors, textile merchants, moved their family from Gujarat in northwestern India to the thriving port town of Alleppey. We assume that it was at this time that the Raheem family bought the existing colonial house and called it Raheem Bungalow. Today we are glad to report that the current Mr Raheem and his wife, Mrs Mymunnah, are now happily living in Cochin city since we bought the property from them in 2003. Mr Raheem remains a regular visitor, together with his extended Muslim family and he is very celebratory about the restoration which we at Personalised Holidays India Pvt Ltd., a small Indo-European private limited company, instigated with the passion of a modern-day custodian of one of the old treasures of Kerala. In changing its use from a private home to a boutique hotel, we took the liberty of changing its name from Raheem Bungalow to Raheem Residency.
