Kumarakom Lake Resort

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

Exquisite rooms. Outside shower may not be everyone’s cup of tea and be aware of mosquitos. The property is impeccably maintained and the food is super. We also did one night in the house boat which was an magical experience. A lovely relaxing stay!
