Reviews and Ratings
The rooms are comfortable, spacious, and offer a royal experience near a scenic lake surrounded by nature's beauty. The food spread is excellent, making it an ideal hideout for couples. However, the nighttime challenge of mosquitoes, insects, and lizards could be bothersome.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were fantastic with 'open Air' bathrooms and even fruit bats above our accommodation. The location was stunning, surrounded by wildlife, but improvements in cleanliness are needed. The outside bathroom was hands down THE BEST!
My stay at the hotel was simply amazing. The rooms were the highlight of the trip with a front view of the lake on the west and a balcony view of the Lily pond on the east. However, I did find the separate loose wooden steps between rooms a bit dangerous as they slid on the tile floors, but overall, it was a fabulous suite given how nice the grounds are.
My stay at Coconut Lagoon was truly delightful. The secluded lodges provided a peaceful and comfortable retreat, although the absence of TVs was notable. The rooms were spacious compared to other resorts in Kumarakom, and a short walk from our lodging was a small inconvenience.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The bungalows and lodges, many with outside bathrooms, were a unique and enjoyable experience, set in beautiful grounds overlooking the serene Kerala backwaters. The spa was a highlight, although some rooms were a bit dark for my liking. The staff truly made our trip special with their warm smiles and friendly service.
Staying at this heritage mansion was a real treat with incredibly spacious rooms. The service was friendly and professional, adding to the overall experience. The location by Lake Vembanadu was stunning, offering a perfect way to explore Kerala's backwaters. The dining was delicious, although the coffee could use an upgrade. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay truly enjoyable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms are comfortable, spacious, and royal, offering a great hideout for couples. The service was extraordinary, and the staff were very cooperative. The location is fantastic, right next to Kerala canals and a beautiful lake. The dining experience was very good, with a variety of delicious Kerala cuisines. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were comfortable and nicely spread out amidst beautiful grounds. However, I felt the hotel lacked a homely atmosphere compared to others I've visited. The service, especially in assisting with activities like car hire and tours, was top-notch and very friendly. The location by the waterways was stunning, offering beautiful sunset views. The dining experience was interactive and enjoyable, with a good spread of freshly cooked food.
