Kumarakom Lake Resort

It is truly a well maintained luxury resort that meets international standards We did the day houseboat cruise and loved it, we had fresh meals prepared on the boat and it was truly an unique experience. The restaurant buffet options are good and staff is so welcoming and friendly. Aarthy from the restaurant made us feel welcome. With unexpected turn of events we had to drive to Madurai, the driver Aneesh from the resort made our 8hr journey so comfortable and accommodated our needs, thanks Aneesh! Overall highly recommend and we will be going back there ourselves!

The lay-out and architecture of this resort transport guests to old-world Kerala with its attention to detail and careful preservation of old artefacts. The Heritage room was quite amazing with its jacuzzi. The room for the physically-challenged, the only one available for me when I extended my stay, was very accessible, for any one with special needs. The food was excellent, staff were very accommodating and helpful and the location on the backwater was amazing ! The pool was good and the gym and staff were excellent. The trip on the backwater was very evocative of the everyday-life of people on the backwaters in central Kerala. The variety of birds at this location was the icing on the cake !

A wonderful welcome and stay in this very beautiful resort.We were welcomed from Gloria wich helped us trough out the entire stay. We cruised at sunset for free with a big boat and around 20 people but the treat was the next morning with a motor canoa that took us around the small canals and the lake with the amazing colors of the early morning. Gym was great as well as the nice instructor. Dinner in the fish restaurant was very romantic.Food not amazing as well the bloody Mary but i would rather choose this one instead of the more crowded one. Breakfast was really good with many many choices. We were not much lucky with the room since it had two windows behind the bed and could hear a lot of chit chat until late.Attention to details in the room was very nice.From tea tray to peanuts from bathroom set to that touch of elgance that sometimes make the difference. I’ve tried an Ayurvedic massage that was a bit expensive.i did not love it but that is me.The therapist though were very good and professional. Jacuzzi was amazing. Would i come again?not sure.What i was missing was a room with a view of the lake.Not easy to find,i know,but this is my next goal for my trip in Kumarakom. Overall a very good place to stay so 5 stars for sure.

Kumarakom Lake Resort is one of the two five-star properties in Kumarakom. It has a beautiful location touching the Lake Vembanad. The welcome and the check-in process are smooth and quick. The rooms have the heritage feeling, just that they are modernized for the customers' comfort. The meandering pool villas are awesome. Every villa is connected to the pool. The house boat ride with lunch or dinner through the tranquil back waters of the Vembanad lake is a must do if the budget permits, although the resort has a free ride every day at 5.30 pm for all the guests. The staff is well trained and admirable in hospitality. The photographer who clicks pics for you free of cost is a gem in the package and has a good knowledge of photography from your own mobile. The housekeeping service is exceptional. The service team in the restaurant is flawless, and so is the reception team. The staff is helping, friendly, honest, and hard-working, just right for the hospitality industry.

Great location , great decoration, good food
