The next
destination after Munnar was Kumarakom Lake Resort, which was on my mind for a
long time. It was one of my dreams to stay in this resort.
Located in the
Kottayam district in Kerala, Kumarakom Lake Resort is a place in itself. This is a Peaceful resort on the Backwater of
Kerala with lush greenery everywhere. There are many other five star resorts in
the same location but nothing beats Kumarakom Lake Resort. I had read a lot about Kumarakom lake resort
but as stated above this was my first time with them and it lived up to its
award winning reputation.
As you enter the
reception area it gives you a very authentic Keralite feel with colorful
painting hanging on the wall, wooden furniture and low ceiling. The staff is
dressed in a traditional off white sari with golden border and the guys wear a
simple cream shirt with a Lungi. As you proceed further you are welcomed with
natural gush of wind and the beautiful landscape keeps you mesmerized for some
time.
We had booked a
Heritage villa with Private pool which was truly sublime, a large beautifully
appointed bedroom with outside bathroom, a porch with lovely sitting area
…and…and … the most lovely private pool with Jacuzzi.
Could anyone ask for more?
