We had a wonderful stay at Kumarakom Wood Castle! The breakfast was by far the best we had during 2 weeks travelling through Kerala. The owner and his wife makes for a dynamic team who are professional and very helpful with arranging taxi's, House boat stays and interesting places to visit. The property is a beautiful traditional wooden Kerala house with many interesting features like an antique shop and an amazing museum on the top floor! This is a must visit. We arrived as strangers but left as friends. Thank you for giving us the best Kerala experience.

Perfect place to escape busy and crowded city and enjoy quiet village atmosphere. Paradise for birdwatchers. Breakfast was good, and there are two restaurants nearby. I would recommend the nearest one (Lake N Cruise). The food is simple and cheap, and it's a perfect spot to enjoy magic sunsets at 6 pm. It is also easy to reach Kumarakom center and bird sanctuary (tuk-tuk 150 rupees one way). Early morning backwater boat ride for three hours though small canals was something special. And many thanks for sincere hospitality to the hosts, who were super friendly and helpful. Overall 10+!

The perfect retreat for a few nights of total relaxation - from the moment you take the boat to get there to leaving the experience is fantastic. Absolutely stunning location, the staff are incredibly kind, friendly, professional and welcoming. A beautifully well kept location. The food was excellent from breakfast to dinner. The highlight for me was Navin the yoga/meditation guru - morning yoga sessions and evening mediation was the perfect way to start and end the day. Navin is very kind and experienced teacher, really a pleasure to meet him, he’s also incredibly knowledgeable about books and reading, so please ask him to recommend a book if you’re a book worm like me, he was fantastic!

Our recent stay at the Rhythm Resort was truly exceptional.

Our recent stay at the Rhythm Resort was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful, going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The location was perfect, nestled amidst lush greenery with stunning views of Vembanad Lake. The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully designed, with modern amenities. The resort's amenities were impressive, including a fantastic pool area, a well-equipped fitness center, and a variety of dining options that catered to all tastes.

Kumarakom is a beautiful village famous for its serene backwaters, lakes filled with lotus, small roads and above all, its warm and welcoming people. Found it easy to engage in delightful conversations, experiencing genuine local hospitality and culture firsthand. However, if you are unaccustomed to village life, a few precautions will enhance your experience. Always carry mosquito repellent, especially during evenings near the water bodies, Don't drink Toddy and Spicy foods

Good : Great waterfront locations, lots of superb landscaped resorts with lots of birds and calm and quiet neighbourhood. Bad : Very few good restaurants in and around the area, and food served at most of the upscale star hotels and resorts is very poor in quality and expensive, especially the dinner. Note : Avoid during peak summer (March & April) as it is very hot and humid.

The backwaters of Kumarakom are exquisite, quiet, and peaceful. Lovely friendly people. It's a small place, so 2 or 3 days is more than enough. I battled to find an ATM that (a) worked and (b) would let me withdraw money on an international card. You need cash in Kumarakom.

My wife Leigh and I had a wonderful few days at Mango Kerala Homestay during our honeymoon. Divya, Dilip and their lovely daughters were superb hosts, welcoming, friendly and helpful - a true Homestay experience. The food was so tasty, South Indian, varied and delicious. We did have a meal at the Taj hotel nearby but the food wasn't as good! Our room (with a balcony overlooking the backwaters) and the entire home was clean and such a lovely place to spend time. The family also have a luxury houseboat where we hope to stay next time!

Beautiful hotel and grounds. I finity pool looking onto the lake. Afternoon tea, sunset boat ride and music every evening included. Quality breakfast. Good bar. Book exchange. Quality independently-owned hotel - not a chain. Near to toddy bars - walkable. Auto rickshaw needed to lake ferry and bird reserve , but only 4km ish
