A serene retreat with the kumarakom Lake area. The resort has very attentive staff and there's quite a bit to do and explore within the resort. The bungalows are really authentic to the traditional Keralite style. They come with an open to sky bathroom that makes the showering experience amazingly refreshing! Definitely would recommend!!

This review is not about stay at CGH Earth properties but my experience interacting with CGH Earth Reservations Team. I interacted with them for a future dated booking, and as it fell in the peak season in Kerala, I expected many challenges. But customer-centric approach by Shri.Arjun Krishna, Holiday Consultant, worked proactively to ensure customer delight even before I got there. It felt so nice to see genuinely helping people.

This was my third visit to Kumarakom and my first stay with CGH. We arrived late, so missed their signature welcome, though I did get a glimpse of it with other guests. We stayed in the Lakefront Pool Villa and it was everything I could have wished for. The villa felt homely, tastefully decorated with local pieces and perfectly placed between the backwaters and paddy fields. Mornings on the balcony, listening to birds and insects, were serene, while evenings brought the soothing sound of rain on the front porch. Early risers are treated to a glimpse of village life; fishermen checking their nets and racing boats practicing, complete with lively pep talks from their coaches. Dining exceeded expectations despite there being only two restaurants. Live counters are a must-try, though they can get busy and a couple of times our orders got mixed. A table number system would help streamline orders and I was glad to see Midhun, one of the servers, already doing this on our last day. He deserves special mention for his attentive service, warm interactions and eye for detail. One evening, we ordered Duck Mappas and were pleasantly surprised when the chef herself came out to apologise for a delay. She explained that the first batch had overcooked, so they restarted the dish. We truly appreciated her honesty and care, we hadn’t even noticed the wait as we were enjoying the ambience. Overall, the food is fresh, flavorful and comforting in its simplicity. The famous Chai Chechi is a resort highlight, bringing tea and snacks every evening. While the experience is charming, the crowd of phones and cameras made it feel less authentic. I understand someone posted a reel and made the whole thing viral, but I wonder how she feels about as it can be overwhelming to have a crowd clicking and recording constantly. The F&B team steps in to take orders and serve the tea and snacks which I am sure she appreciates. The main restaurant hosts cooking demos every evening, where chefs explain ingredients and steps in a simple, engaging way. I joined one session and witnessed a heartwarming moment; a guest patiently translating the entire demo for another, even though they had just met. These are the wholesome connections that make travel so special. The resort also runs different cultural shows every evening. I admire the use of local talent, giving guests a true taste of Kerala’s culture. Unfortunately, some guests would barge in mid performace or chat loudly during performances which dampened the experience. Anywhere in the world this would be considered extremely disrepctfuly behaviour for live performances. The staff needs to step in and set some basic house rules for guests. I checked their gift shop and was able to pick up some cotton tops/kaftans in local designs. They do stock a variety of items including toileteries and essentials. If you plan to visit during the monsoon season, expect it to rain at any point. There are umbrellas provided and holders to

Eco lodge superlativo sia per gli alloggi che per la ristorazione entrambi molto curati . Tra i servizi una parola particolare per YOGI NAVEEN una persona speciale . Ho praticato insieme a lui due meditazioni condotte benissimo . Un’anima rara e profonda disponibile all’ascolto spirituale . Grazie NAVEEN 🙏🏻

I spent a heavenly week here on a solo writing retreat and I never wanted to leave! The boat ride into the property lets you know you are headed somewhere wonderful, and the setting, on an old coconut plantation on Lake Vembanad, can't be bettered. I loved my room in one of the heritage mansions: as picturesque outside as in. The serene, beautifully maintained premises already make this a rewarding destination--and the staff lifts it to another level. To a person I found the staff extraordinarily friendly and attentive. AGM Shynima has the warmth and graciousness of a superb hostess, and personally ensured that I had everything I could want. Prateesh the naturalist is hugely knowledgeable and delivers a fantastic walking tour of the property. (I was particularly impressed by the water purification and solar power facilities.) It's a terrific spot for amateur bird watching and I enjoyed kayaking, too. The restaurant buffet is excellent and though understandably it seemed to repeat after about four days, the chefs are ready to customize to your tastes. The head chef even gave me recipes to take home! I so appreciated the friendliness of the waiter I interacted with at each meal, and the big smiles from Rosa (?) who makes appams. The afternoon tea service, brought by boat, is utterly delightful. Top marks to CGH for this lovely property and for a philosophy that blends high-end comforts with sustainability and unpretentiousness.

Lovely resort with luxurious facilities and wonderful staff. Food was amazing and there were activities throughout the day to occupy all age groups including the boat ride to view the sunset. Early morning bird watching and butterfly garden ***** with the barn brings you close to nature and was a nostalgic experience. The staff always had a smile on their faces and was throughly trained to do their job, which makes every guest feel special and valued, regardless of age. Would highly recommend Coconut Lagoon to friends and can't wait to come back. Lovely place and amazing value for money.

The activities in the resort are perfectly curated. The bird watching session, property tours and chronicles were very informative and entertaining. The hosts will make you fall in love with whole Vembanad ecosystem and at the same time move you towards sustainability. The meditation in the evening is very relaxing and the host felt so much invested to provide you the most pattern breaking experience. Evening performances are a must have exoerience. Tip: Enjoy all the activities. I won't write about the beauty of the place as it is unmatched and can't be explained jn words. No issue in any services at all. You will feel HAPPY here.
