United States, February 2025

7.0/10

My family and I had a mixed experience at this resort. The location is stunning, surrounded by backwaters and a peaceful atmosphere. The staff, particularly Nabarun, Anand, and Seethal, were warm and helpful, which added to our stay. However, the overall service was quite laid-back and often unresponsive to guest requests. The activities offered were underwhelming and poorly managed, making it hard to enjoy our time. Despite the gorgeous setting, the execution fell short in many areas.

Rooms

The rooms are well-kept and reflect a charming colonial style, while the staff genuinely make your stay memorable.

This hotel is truly beautiful, with breathtaking views of Vembanad Lake and a serene lagoon. The charm of the property is complemented by excellent restaurant service, but the size of the rooms could use improvement, and the swimming pool doesn't quite match the overall beauty of the place. While some aspects of the spa experience were great, it felt a bit pricey for what was offered.

My stay at the resort was a truly memorable experience. The beautiful design of the property and the variety of activities available made our visit special. However, the breakfast was a bit slow to get started, and there were a few minor cleanliness issues around the grounds. Overall, it was a peaceful getaway with breathtaking views and unique features that made it worth the visit.

Rooms

Our room was spacious and comfortable, overlooking a picturesque pond. I loved the unique open-to-sky washrooms, which reminded me of my childhood in Kerala. The downside might be that it felt a bit smaller than expected, but it was well-kept and cozy.

The dining experience was somewhat mixed. While the specially prepared Kerala meals were delightful, the breakfast was a letdown, especially with timing issues. Overall, the quality of the meals was good once we got what we wanted.

Facilities

8.0

The resort offered a range of activities like kayaking and cycling, which kept us engaged. However, a stagnant water body near the pool did look like an eyesore, slightly detracting from the overall experience.
