Top Kumarakom Backwaters Hotel Reviews

Punnamada Resorts

8/10 Good

"Nice and peaceful location, lovely restaurant stuff but awful reception: they were neiter able to connect with a kayak tour provider nor to get a cab on time. If you organize yourself, lovely and calm place just 3km from Alleppey jetty."

Lemon Tree Vembanad Lake Resort, Kerala

8/10 Good

"Very nice, very quiet property. The entrance is not very conspicuous for first timers. When we were there, there was some construction going on, so it was understandable that some areas were not as clean. However, this also affected the path to the in-house restaurant making the approach unpleasant and little things like these are not very difficult to manage even with the construction going on, and it was a bit of a surprise. Rooms and facilities were excellent otherwise, food was good, staff pleasant."

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."
