Kumarakom Hotels with Gym

We recently stayed at Taj Kumarakom which I had booked blindly thinking Taj would provide the best experience. Little did I know! The food was so bad that we ended up eating at Lake Resort Kumarakom for all meals. I would highly recommend that. In fact we were thinking we should have better stayed there. The manager at the reception, Priya, was quite cold, refused to upgrade our rooms which I wanted to do using the Taj Epicure room upgrade vouchers. While she claimed there were no rooms available, I spoke to the cleaning staff and found that two rooms were vacant. When we enquired about using Uber her response was again non-committal because obviously she wanted us to use the hotel cab and charge a bomb. The lights in the room kept going out and we had to keep readjusting the key to get power back. Thee seemed to be some loose connection. Overall it was such a poor and disappointing experience, I would not recommend staying here and wasting your money. When you stay in a five star it’s not only the facility but the people and customer service that makes the stay unique and worthwhile. In contrast we had an amazing experience at taj kochi who were really hospitable.

My stay at Kumarakom Lake Resort was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, the impeccable attention to detail was evident, from the greeting on arrival to the beautifully maintained grounds to the thoughtfully curated houses. Every element was crafted to perfection, ensuring a truly luxurious stay. What set this resort apart was the personalized service and highly trained staff. Every team member went above and beyond, anticipating my needs and adding thoughtful touches throughout my visit and managing my expectations (I.e. regarding the visit to the bird sanctuary). I also loved the chance to try pottery. The buffet options were outstanding, offering an impressive selection of local Kerala dishes alongside international cuisine, all prepared with fresh, flavorful ingredients. If you’re looking for a resort that combines luxury, world-class service, and cultural experiences, Kumarakom Lake Resort is the perfect choice. Can’t wait to return!

This place clearly is past its prime from the looks of it. Our Deluxe Lagoon view room is past its ‘best by’ date. The furniture is fraying, the mirror has big stains, the room had a stink when we checked in, the aircon works only at one setting - 19 degrees. The woodwork has been shoddily repaired, the glass door has turned yellow with grime. The maintenance and upkeep of the property evidently de***ds serious attention. Sadly, when I attempted to show some pictures of the room to the ***agement, it barely caused any concern. I was informed that the extended Covid lockdown - and the tropical climate and moist air, has taken a huge toll on the property. In other words, we really can’t do much! However, supposedly a revamp of the property is underway - doesn’t help us though. While the explanation maybe valid, the nonchalant response was galling and totally unexpected. And any way, why shouldn’t we, as paying guests, expect better? At breakfast this morning, the papaya was un-ripened, the pineapple was overripe and discoloured. And the best. - they couldn’t find decent, fresh and ripe local bananas to serve! At lunch, the Thai green curry was spicy - so spicy and none of us four could eat more than one spoon. We refused to eat it and asked them to take it back. Yet amazingly, it appeared on our bill - no apologies offered. Naturally, we refused to pay for the dish. Quite eventful first 24 hours.

I booked a 21-day Ayurvedic detox program at Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters & Beyond, expecting a 5-star luxury wellness experience. Unfortunately, it was anything but. In reality, this resort is not even a 3-star property, let alone 5. ✅ The Good ✔ Polite staff – They tried their best, but they are clearly undertrained and understaffed. ✔ Beautiful location – The serene backwater views could have been a highlight if the resort was well-maintained. ❌ The Bad 1️⃣ False Advertising 🏨 The resort is not a 5-star property. The facilities, service, and treatments are subpar. 🌿 The Ayurvedic program was poorly structured, and my prescribed medicine took 4 days to arrive, completely disrupting the detox plan. 2️⃣ Unhygienic and Neglected Facilities 🛏 Dirty rooms – Stained linens, dusty furniture, and unclean bathrooms. 🏊‍♂️ Private pool was dirty – The filters were off until I explicitly asked for them to be turned on. 🚿 Common areas were neglected – Bird droppings, insects, and a visible lack of maintenance everywhere. 3️⃣ Uncomfortable Accommodations 🛌 The bed was so stiff that I had trouble sleeping and woke up every morning with my whole body aching. 🚫 This is unacceptable for any hotel, let alone one claiming to be a luxury wellness retreat. 4️⃣ Unprofessional Service 🙅‍♂️ Staff lacked proper training and some struggled with English, making communication difficult. 🕷 A spider web (with what looked like a scorpion) at my doorstep took days to remove, until I finally requested it to be cleaned. 5️⃣ Unsupportive Management 📢 Management was not on top of running the operations. I felt the need to manage the staff for basic housekeeping and service. 🚨 The Ugly: I Had to Leave Early By the 5th day, I couldn’t take it anymore and left early, spending extra money to find better accommodation and treatments in Kochi. 💸 Instead of healing, I left stressed, exhausted, and financially strained. ⚠️ Final Thoughts: Avoid This Place!!! While the staff tried, the quality of the facility, cleanliness, quality of the program and poor service ruined this experience. This is not a luxury retreat, and I strongly advise against staying here…! Kerala deserves better representation than this.. 😞
