Backwater Ripples Kumarakom ★★★★★

📍 Nazerath Church Road, likkalam, Kumarakom

"It is very clean, has a beautiful garden, a pool with nice few of the lake and also the food was really great. Sindhu (the experience manager) took a lot of time taking care of us. She helped me with my skin problems by finding some good herbs, took lots of pictures of us, showed us the garden and gave us some fresh mangos straight from the tree. Also the reception was very friendly and helpful - they brought us some fresh coconut, answered all of our questions and also brought some breakfast to the room. An ayurvedic doctor gave us a lot of insight and we had a great masage, worth the money (around 25€ for 1 hour). There are events included, such as a boat trip with the sunset, guided walks, afternoon tea and snacks, and a lot more. All together it was a great experience."

"Still and amazing place. Please select the heritage villas to stay. They need to improve the Airconditioner in the deluxe villas and also do something better to prevent the leakage of light into the room. They need a gym for sure and a bigger covered sit out with fans inside. It's all Global warming and they need to keep up. Chef and service and food are all amazing."

Taj Kumarakom Resort and Spa Kerala Hotels in Kottayam

Taj Kumarakom Resort and Spa Kerala

"The original plan was just to have a quick lunch after a lovely morning on the backwaters - none of us expected it to turn into our favourite memory from the trip! Right from the moment we arrived we felt so welcome - big smiles, welcome drinks, handmade palm garlands. Mr. Vinpugal’s genuine warmth and kindness despite our being late for our reservation, and the entire team’s hospitality soon put us at ease. Even though we were day guests we were welcomed by GM Shabad and even got a special invite to the evening chaya kada waterside experience. The chef and wait staff were world class and we sampled 9 different dishes from the amazing menu. Every single one was a hit - and the team was kind enough to pack our leftovers for us to take home! After a laid back lunch and some time walking around the property enjoying the lake and gardens we were driven by buggy to the delicious afternoon tea. Our time was made even more special with a complimentary family photograph, some magic tricks and turtle feeding! We ended the day with a spectacular sunset. A highly recommended experience with something for everyone. If you are looking to create a special memory in Kumarakkom nothing beats the original backwater resort - the Taj!"

Lake Palace Family Resort Kumarakom Hotels in Kottayam

Lake Palace Family Resort Kumarakom

"We have stayed here few times previously when we visited India. Hotel had been consistently declining and now it is pretty bad. We planned to stay a few days but checked out after staying there one night. We had informed them that we will arrive little early. Checkin time was 2 PM. We arrived there at 1.30 PM. They told us that checkin is at 2 so had to wait. We did. The room they have assigned us (booked a Luxury Pavillion Room) was really old, the AC didnot work properly, the bathroom toilet water was running and the bathroom ceiling leaked and flooded the bathroom floor. We reported to the front desk, they said “thank you”, they must have known this already. Overall this resort has declined to a two star experience, we loved our first stay here several years ago. Now the culture is totally different. We will not return to this resort again. Will try the other newer resorts with good reviews."

"Only had one night but room was very spacious with working air con on a very hot night. The staff were polite and friendly and whilst we were in the pool one of the workers offered to get us a couple of pool towels. The pool was clean and very inviting temperature. There is a really nice raised area to sit above the pool which had a slight breeze. The food in the restaurant was not that great but as nothing was really close by and we had no transport this was really only option."

"The place was good. Prime location and anyone can easily find this hotel. The room was neat and clean. But there was a foul smell coming from the bathroom. Even after turning on the exhaust fan, the smell didn't go away. Other than that, the stay was excellent."
