Everything about the property was excellent.
It was a super awesome stay.
I would particularly like to add a word about Ms. Janci, the Guest Relationship Manager of the hotel, who made sure that everything was perfect. I have not seen a more hard-working lady than Janci. Kudos to her and her amazing hospitality.

Being a heritage hotel it had feel of the tradition and culture of the place. The food was absolutely amazing and chef Revi made amazing food with some local fish dishes like "currymeen". The manager of the property Mr. Soji was very cooperative and made us feel at home. Absolutely amazing experience.
Operating a 24-hour front desk to assist guests, Lake Palace Family Resort Kumarakom is located 0.6 mi from St. Peter’s Church and 1.2 mi from Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary.

Had to check out early.

The evening shikara ride was great for our group and was at the right price point - 2000 rupees for 2 hours for 2 families. The bird sanctuary was a big disappointment as there is not much to see and the facilities are also very poor - of the two bird watching towers one is damaged and other does not have a great view. Not many species of birds could be seen or heard, its more of a nature walk than a bird sanctuary.

As soon as we arrived it felt like Paradise.
As soon as we arrived it felt like Paradise. As the gates shut the noise and hustle bustle of an Indian town were left outside.
The beautiful old buildings in heritage style, lovely garden with trees and the only sound that of birdsong. It didn’t end there. All the staff from Vaisakh the Manager, Amal the Chef, the lady helping in the kitchen and the lady constantly sweeping the floors and working in the garden were helpful, courteous and always had a cheerful smile. The two men were happy to enter into conversations with us when they were not busy. They also responded immediately when asked for anything.
The food was delicious and well cooked but they found it amusing that we couldn’t handle the chillis in some of the dishes.
The pool was clean and cool and very welcoming in the heat.
We spent a very happy and relaxing week at Brookside Heritage Resort and it was the best place to start our Kerala adventure after a long and arduous journey from the UK. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We will definitely be back.

We stayed in a property that gave us half-board meals (dinner and breakfast) and had in-house activities such as a sunset boat cruise and an evening cultural show. All this reinforced the kerala theme and made for a wonderful experience.

The backwaters are unique with water lilies and a wide variety of birds that can be viewed in a Shikara at dawn. A houseboat to spend the day and enjoy local cuisine served using fresh fish caught and sold by fisherwomen on the banks is a fabulous experience.

Wonderful surroundings, great value for the money we spent. A lot of activities to keep you occupied, alternatively a beautiful place to relax after putting in long hours while at work.
The staff were extremely helpful and always willing to help.

Kumarakom is a lovely back water locality, away from the hustle bustle of the city. Its a relaxing environment where you can disconnect from the busy world outside and yet if you need to get back to it, it's just nearby.
Low quality build with little attention to detail.
Swimming pool was bug ridden and with exposed wiring.
Sun loungers were limited and felt like this hotel should be a lot better from the listing, and for the high cost we paid.
Had much better accommodation for half the cost of this place.
The bar is hidden in a sweaty dark room, not good for a social drink. No refreshments available, water provided in rooms.
Food was lovely.
Good location and friendly staff let down by the poor quality accommodation.
The homestay was located at a best view point at kumarakom. You can wake up viewing the sunrise from the balcony. The room is very clean with all the facilities. Staffs are so friendly. They were continuously assisting us from beginning. The price is very cheap and so affordable. The staffs arranged us a crise ride for a very cheap rate. Also the food was so delicious. I highly recommend mountde kumarakom for the couples and also for the families
- lovely view of backwaters
- free on site activities such as badminton, archery, bicycling, swimming pool
- free tea time from 4.30pm-5.30pm serving chai and some snacks like banana fritters
- location was clean, nice and quiet
- lakeroom view was spacious and very comfortable
- spa facilities available even though we did not use it.
- ability to pay for room using international card
It is a very nice property. Well maintained, green, on the lake but no boat traffic to disturb the peace of the place, just the hotel boat. Nice facility, pottery, bike, fishing. Nice room. Some have a private pool some a big jacuzzi in the room. The massage is fantastic- a must to try.
Great place to stay at in Kumarakom. Staff are friendly and kind. Rooms were clean and well serviced. Breakfast was great and included freshly watermelon juice which was lovely. Very reasonable prices, and cleanliness better than some 5 star hotels we’ve stayed at! Highly recommend.
- flexible with unplanned late check-in
- host very kind, excellent conversation
- delicious Keralan breakfast
- bird watching possible just by footwalk (Sanctuary visit not needed)
- lovely building
- helped to book a very good houseboat
Excellent hotel. All staff were very friendly and remembered all the little details. A special mention to Shiren at reception and Nadir our driver. Nadir took great care of us the whole week we spent travelling in Kerala - most helpful.
Breakfast was even better.My parent’s were staying there for one night and I got good comments from the hotel and staffs and the overall atmosphere.Will visit there again.I m glad that I was able to get a better stay for my parents.
In the heart of Kumarakom its one of the best homestay to enjoy and relax with your family and friends with beautiful paddy field in its backyard and backwaters as your front view. Friendly young staff 24/7 for your help and need.
location was very good that it was literally on the lake, had a wonderful speedboat ride that we hired for two hours. the ride was into the lake and went as far as the alleppey backwaters. it was really the best part of the stay.
From the beautiful location to the simplicity and extraordinarily hospitality of the hosts, I loved everything about Mango Kerala Homes aka Meenakshi River Villa, which is named after their first daughter. Book it now!
It was an awesome experience. The boat is well maintained and equipped with everything necessary and the staff was amazing. The chef cooked the best meals I have had in Kerala. It was extremely peaceful and fun. 10/10
We had a great time at the hotel! We really enjoyed the amazing food and our peaceful villa at the lake. The staff was super friendly, accommating and helpful. We'd most definitely stay here again!
The Resort is at one of the beautiful spots in Kerala. The ambience is too good to spent some amazing time with Family or Friends. Great food, activities and overall it's well maintained.
We had the best experience at this resort. very calm and peaceful location , very good service from the friendly staff, and the food were amazing..,excellent place for family vaccation.
Clean room and amazing breakfast spread! Really good view of the Vembanad lake.The cottage bathroom had an open air shower which has good amount of privacy as well.
