Kumarakom Hotels with Parking

A short trip from Munnar brought us to Kumarakom. Having stayed in a few properties in the past, the expectations were set high! The stay was good, some great spots of enjoyment, some definitive spots for betterment and some sore episodes (nothing to do with Taj ethos). I felt the reception is small and non-noticeable and so was the usual warmth on arrival. That was soon forgotten when Gayatri brought on Priya to the fore. She did explain the shortcomings that come alongwith a govt owned property being leased by Taj. The restaurant was great and the high tea is quite refreshing. Our group of six adults, have great tastebuds sans anything that borders above LESS SPICEY… Great challenge for the team, till Subin Meccheri, hand crafted the best items of our stay - Ulli theeyal and Cabbage Thoran.. Out of the world and dot on “ Low spice”. Heaven on earth! Vin Pugal, a known face of our 2022-stay at Kovalam made our last day stay comfortable and allowed us to overstay for a couple more hours . Exit of one of our team leaving early on the last day to catch his flight to San Francisco had to literally witness and be a mute spectator to the Union-activism that compelled him to use the local cab to Airport, priced 50% more than the app-operators… a lesson learnt, though not a reflection of the nice stay in Taj. Having stayed in Taj resorts at Kovalam, Madikeri, Goa, Maldives, I feel Taj Kumarakom has many spots to betterment, especially house keeping, room service and the general upkeep.

Traveled to Kerala and stayed at many excellent South India accommodations and the friendly local people we met ***** the way. By far the best was the Coconut Lagoon resort. The individual bungalows with their outdoor showers/bathrooms were amazing, and many activities that were very informative and engaging plus excellent Ayurvedic massage treatments, especially by AGeeta and Shifa. It is a testament to this Eco Lodge that their employees want to be hired there and stay for many years. Our very favorite was the E bike off the track and naturalist.Pra Teesh who has encyclopedic knowledge of the flora and fauna in the area and who is very well respected by the local villagers who allowed us foreign tourists to enter their homes, observe their toddy coconut flour, tap something, and even to taste the unfermented toddy! We were initially unsure if three days would be too long to stay at a quiet resort, but there was so much to do and see an experience that it was one of the top highlights of our trip to South India .

The scenery surrounding Kumarakom Lake Resort is absolutely breathtaking—it felt like stepping into paradise. As a five-star resort, it fully immerses you in the serene beauty of Kerala’s backwaters. The views were unmatched, creating a truly magical ambiance throughout our stay. One of the highlights of our trip was the overnight houseboat experience, which was impeccably arranged. The houseboat was incredibly clean, luxurious, and staffed by a team that provided exceptional service, waiting on us hand and foot. In fact, some parts of the houseboat experience felt even more luxurious than the resort itself. It was a magical and unforgettable experience that I cannot recommend enough. The resort itself was very well-managed, with outstanding service from every staff member. The infinity pool, as well as the private pool outside our bedroom, were both stunning and perfectly maintained. These spaces provided the ideal setting for relaxation. The Ayurvedic spa was another highlight. The therapists were attentive and went above and beyond to address our needs, delivering some of the best massages I’ve ever experienced. While the overall hospitality and experience were unmatched, the only reason I would give this 4.5 stars instead of 5 is the price point. Everything—from the room rates to alcohol and spa services—was exceptionally expensive, even for a luxury resort in this region. Despite the high costs, we left feeling it was money well spent, and I would absolutely recommend Kumarakom Lake Resort to anyone seeking a truly luxurious and serene getaway

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.

My husband and I had a great experience with Niraamaya Kovalam Resort in February 2023 and so decided to try their Kumarakom location this year. We weren’t disappointed, and found the same beautiful surroundings, personalized service and comfortable accommodations as on our previous experience. Our private lake-view villa with small pool was the perfect getaway from India’s large, crowded cities. I enjoyed the Ayurveda massages on a near-daily basis, while my husband appreciated the range of western and Indian dishes in the restaurant. We’d like to give a special shoutout to Prasanna, Restaurant Supervisor, and Habilash, Housekeeping Supervisor, both of whom contributed greatly to making our stay comfortable. Although relaxing and enjoying the tranquil beauty of Kumarakom was our main purpose, we were also able to visit the centuries-old Hindu temples of Ettumanoor and Vaikom within a short drive of an hour or less, and take a leisurely boat trip to sites located on Lake Vembanad. We will definitely be back to Kerala and look forward to visiting Niraamaya’s other locations.
