Excellent resort to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Calm, beautiful, delicious food and enough local activities from the resort for the 2 nights we were there. The front office were very welcoming from the start of our visit to the end of our stay. We indulged in the houseboat cruise which was bliss. And we also did the sunset cruise with Kavi and the musicians who entertained us really well. Kavi is very charismatic and obliged with taking memorable photos and clips! Thanks to all the staff.

Dear all at the Kumarakom Lake Resort, We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your wonderful Lake Resort. Everyone at the resort, from start to finish, was ever so helpful. We especially enjoyed the gardens and the meandering pool the most. The afternoon tea in the garden and all the activities programmes arranged at the resort are excellent. The evening sunset trip on the lake and the music on the boat added to our enjoyment. A special mention of Kavi – his expertise with the camera phone was phenomenal and thought-provoking (at least to me!). Our dining experience at the multi-cuisine restaurant, with the variety of food offered and the quality of service, was amazing. Please convey our thanks to all your staff for making our stay memorable.

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.
