Top Kumarakom Backwaters Hotel Reviews

Punnamada Resorts

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely lake-side setting - very peaceful. Reception organised a kayak tour for me, which was good fun. I'd an issue with the TV, and the hotel Technician was at my room within 5 minutes of me mentioning it. He determined it was broken, and brought a new one and installed it within 30 minutes. Had breakfast, lunch and dinner at the on-site restaurant, and all were lovely meals. The restaurant team were also very helpful - one noticed that I'd started some toast while I took my plate of food to my table, and so she stepped in, collected some butter and jam, and added my toast to a plate which she brought it over to the table for me. Attentive and helpful. The pool was also lovely and warm."

Coconut Lagoon - Cgh Earth

10/10 Excellent

"We have enjoyed our stay and all the staff were friendly and helpful especially Ms SUKANYA had given us some personal care and attention."

Lakesong Kumarakom

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed the resort. Some things were worn down, like the gym and the room doors, but the hotel made up for these problems with its beauty, swimming pool, delicious food and excursions (we had luck to take a canal trip at sunset and got to see a variety of exotic birds like a purple heron and several kinhfishers.) We were among very few foreign guests and really liled that."

Hotel Arcadia

8/10 Good

"Staff were very helpful. I was able to check in early. The location was very good to be pick up from and to be dropped. The WiFi was bad, keeps on dropping."

Taj Kumarakom Resort & Spa, Kerala

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly staff, beautifully landscaped and fantastic food, absolutely recommend"

Abad Whispering Palms

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the privacy of the cottage and the hospitality of the staff. The added brownie points were the complimentary tea/coffee and snacks in the afternoon! That's definitely something to look forward to. Otherwise, kitchen staff were not that great, we got some burnt rotis and found a hair in a curry. But the rest of the staff were wonderful and very helpful."
