Kumarakom Lake Resort is sheer bliss from Alleppey

We took a 2 day houseboat from Alleppey booked through the resort (beware of cheaper houseboats that will disappoint you) and had the experience of a lifetime.It was simply amazing to be able to experience and share the daily lives of the people who live by the backwaters. Our onboard chef catered for all our needs and was always going that extra mile.When we docked at the Resort the 5* service continued.Everyone should do this - you will never regret this journey. I would however suggest that more facilities to cater for children would be welcome as whats on offer is very limiting.I would like to have seen more variety of western cuisine to cater for those who don't like spicy food - especially for children.Finally, please don't charge for wifi as this is a necessity and not a luxury these days.If you have to charge for this service than loose it in your room rates.

Best place to stay in Kumarakom

this is my third time stayed at the hotel. My view experience has not changed. Very well maintained hotel. I went two weeks after the devastating floods and the hotel was up and running, no sign of any damage. i reached early and was granted an early check in as requested. Though they informed that the hotel was not flooded. Stayed in the heritage lake view villa with private pool. Cant call it a pool though. very small. its a large jacuzzi. The room is well appointed, spacious. My AC wasnt working well and was attended to immediately. Of the two restaurants, one was out of service due to maintenance and repair work. the only problem with the room is too many scattered switches. its required to have one master switch for all the lights in the room.over all a very super experience.

Great Heritage Resort

Nice heritage resort with interesting historical architecture. The pool villas were spacious and comfortable. If you like antiques the decor will appeal to you. The staff are very attentive and helpful with everything. The food is excellent. The price is steep for India but the location and amenities make it worth while if you want to treat yourself to something special. Overnight on the resort Houseboat was fantastic.

Hope to Return

Heaven on Earth. My wife and I stayed for 4 nights although we wish we could have stayed longer. We arrived at 9am and our room was unexpectedly made available at 10am even though we hadn’t informed the hotel in advance. We only ate in the Seafood Restaurant so can’t comment on the buffet, service was excellent and the food was very tasty. There was a long happy hour, 11am-5pm with 241 on locally produced alcoholic drinks. Afternoon tea is complimentary and the sunset cruise is a must, the local musicians were very calming.

Spot on

Excellent hotel, service spot on. Beautiful gardens, villa very nice and well maintained. area nice too for backwaters and hotel has a great private backwater trip you can do. THey also do a complimentary sunset cruise on the lake. We had a lake view villa with private pool. Very nice but bear in mind that the pool is at the back of the villa and for privacy surrounded by high wall. no lake view from private pool but still very nice to have and to relax. It also had a jacuzzi. If would probably requested villa no. 106 for return visit. The 'meandering pool villas' also looked nice but i think you would need to request unit 144 which had fab lake view and private shady gazebo. Food excellent - both restaurants were very good and we noticed a higher quality of food here compared with other hotels we had visited (4 and 5*). Great place to relax after a tour of the region. Would certainly recommend.

Excellent from start to finish. Wow!

This place is amazing! The location is stunning, right on the lake front and surrounded by beautifully kept grounds. We really enjoyed the activities as well as the facilities. We had a room with private pool, which was brilliant! The rooms are very clean and incredibly comfortable. The staff were all really helpful and friendly. We loved the sunset boat trip and the Ayurvedic treatments that we tried were brilliant. We ate in the seafood restaurant which had some incredible food. We would thoroughly recommend.

Fabulous resort hotel

As soon as you arrive through the gates you realize you are coming to something special- in this case a huge estate full of bungalows with private pools or as we had touching the seeming 150m meandering pool which was a delight to follow for an evening dip. That in addition to affinity pool , 3 restaurants, gym, evening cruise, afternoon tea, free bikes (though riding outside resort wasn’t a good experience as anyone using local roads will understand) and even clay modelling. The restaurants and spa were excellent and there was even a free early morning yoga class! We were very comfortable in our chalet like bungalow and had a great time. Hope to come back.
