Backwater Ripples Kumarakom ★★★★★

📍 Nazerath Church Road, likkalam, Kumarakom

"It is very clean, has a beautiful garden, a pool with nice few of the lake and also the food was really great. Sindhu (the experience manager) took a lot of time taking care of us. She helped me with my skin problems by finding some good herbs, took lots of pictures of us, showed us the garden and gave us some fresh mangos straight from the tree. Also the reception was very friendly and helpful - they brought us some fresh coconut, answered all of our questions and also brought some breakfast to the room. An ayurvedic doctor gave us a lot of insight and we had a great masage, worth the money (around 25€ for 1 hour). There are events included, such as a boat trip with the sunset, guided walks, afternoon tea and snacks, and a lot more. All together it was a great experience."

Arackal Inn
7.8 (64 reviews)

Arackal Inn ★★

📍 ARACKAL ARCADE, Ward no: V, Bldg No 771, Kottayam

"An average room offers a functional living space with basic amenities. Typically, it includes a bed, a wardrobe, and a desk, providing the essentials for rest, storage, and work. The room's size is usually moderate, balancing comfort and practicality. Cleanliness is standard, though decor may lean towards minimalism. Lighting is adequate, with a mix of natural and artificial sources. The bathroom, often shared, is kept tidy but may lack luxury features. Noise levels depend on location, ranging from peaceful to moderately busy. Overall, it's suitable for budget-conscious individuals seeking a simple, comfortable, and convenient place to stay."

Contour Backwaters
8.2 (6 reviews)

Contour Backwaters ★★★★★

📍 Alappuzha - Changanassery Hwy, Kottayam

"We booked a hall at Contour Halls for 19 August 2026 and paid an advance of ₹10,000 on 10 June 2026. Due to unavoidable family circumstances, we had to reschedule the event to 17 August 2026 and informed the banquet in charge on 2 July 2026, which was about 45 days in advance. Unfortunately, the venue was not available on the new date. When we requested a refund of our advance, we were informed that the company has a "no refund" policy. What is disappointing is that this policy was never communicated to us during any discussion, nor is it mentioned on the receipt provided at the time of payment. I understand if a cancellation happens at the last minute, but in our case the date change was communicated well in advance. Transparency and clear communication are important aspects of customer service, especially for event bookings. Customers should be informed of any non-refundable terms before making payments. For me, this is not just about ₹10,000; it is about business ethics and fair treatment of customers. I would advise future customers to clearly obtain written confirmation of the cancellation and refund policy before paying any advance amount. God bless this group who needs money to survive."

Coconut Lagoon Kumarakom- a CGH Earth Experience

"Still and amazing place. Please select the heritage villas to stay. They need to improve the Airconditioner in the deluxe villas and also do something better to prevent the leakage of light into the room. They need a gym for sure and a bigger covered sit out with fans inside. It's all Global warming and they need to keep up. Chef and service and food are all amazing."

Rhythm Kumarakom Hotels in Kottayam

Rhythm Kumarakom

"We enjoyed our stay at Rhythm Kumarakom and the food was too good with amazing delicacies. The property was located away from the hustle hence you can experience a complete surreal feel in your trip. The Vembanad lake located behind the property is a true asset for the destination which makes your trip even more memorable. The property had all the amenities which are stated and the hospitality was too notch. I highly recommend this to my friends and family who wish to spend time with their loved ones ***** with the mesmerizing nature!"

Cocobay Resort Kumarakom Hotels in Kottayam

Cocobay Resort Kumarakom

"Our family of 5 (including 2 senior citizens and a 7 yr old) visited this resort in Kumarakom for a quick 2 day visit in October . When we reached the parking lot I was in for a shock and felt cheated because the place looked so different from the actual pictures . As soon as I called the reception to reconfirm my location, they sent a person who ushered us to a small roadside canal and took us in a small boat (vanji as it called colloquially). The short 2 min drive changed my first impression drastically. The boat ride to the resort was so serene that it brought in an instant sense of calmness . The resort staff greeted us sweetly and the entire resort was a treat to our eyes. The resort is made thoughtfully and is surrounded by greenery and water . You can sit for hours on the bench in front of the Vembanad lake watching it and that too without worrying about the coconuts falling on your head (Yes! They have taken additional care to add sheets around the tree to prevent coconuts from falling down too :) ). The restaurant inside this resort serves yummy food but costs a bomb. However there are other food options we can explore outside. The extremely friendly staff ***** with the overall ambience definitely makes this place worth a visit"

Thanking all the staff and Ajay, the magician, for spending enough time in capturing some most loving pictures of ours. Thank you all!! Shall visit again' for sure."

"Whispering Palms is well located and in a nice position directly overlooking the backwaters. It is a family friendly hotel with good amenities for children. Not really a couples destination as too noisy with so many children staying. Staff friendly but not super attentive."

Backwater Ripples Kumarakom ★★★★★
"We recently went for a day outing from Infopark to Backwater Ripples, Kumarakom, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The resort offers a peaceful and scenic atmosphere surrounded by beautiful backwaters, making it a perfect escape from the busy work routine. One of the highlights of the trip was the food. The buffet had a great variety of dishes, and everything we tried was fresh and delicious. The Kerala-style dishes were especially flavorful and well prepared. The snacks and refreshments served during the day were also excellent and added to the overall experience. The staff were friendly, attentive, and ensured that our group was comfortable throughout the visit. The property is clean, well maintained, and ideal for team outings, family trips, or a relaxing day with friends. Overall, Backwater Ripples provided us with great hospitality, tasty food, and a refreshing day in a beautiful setting. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in Kumarakom!"
