The property is very well maintained and all rooms had a backwater view. The check in was smooth. There were a lot of complimentary and paid activities. We did the sunset cruise and did a paid shikara ride for 2 hours. The bf buffet was good. Wi-Fi worked fine. The stay was value for money. Wish we could stay longer. Next time maybe ![Resort view from the lake ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B25CAE487AB639EAFBBE5A83D4783111B05F117F1703240559299.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Prema Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### David 19 Jul 2024 Disliked: Staff & service The property actually wasn't that bad but the staff made the experience poor. We didn't get the room that we booked and they accommodated with a roll away bed. Which was fine. Just not ideal. And then they charged an additional fee for this. We were also tired after a long trip and late booking. So when they kept having blackouts and our room key would reset and not work and the late night dinner wasn't available and then was, it was just a few too many little annoyances. I'm trying not to be too harsh because it wasn't bad. Just our experience was bad. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Dominic 20 May 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stay away from this property. Damp rooms, broken air conditioner, mediocre buffet breakfast. We thought of leaving after being shown to our room but decided against it because this was our last stop. Only good thing to say was the complimentary boat ride and the service. Was told that all other rooms were booked by a travel group. The air conditioner in our room was broken and kept leaking water on the floor and making loud noises. Had to wake up every few hours in the night to turn off. Almost no Wi-Fi connectivity either. 2 star property at best. Totally not worth the money. ##### Dominic Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Arpita 16 Aug 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities This is a 5 star property only due to location. The service was very poor and disappointing. 1. In the dinner buffet, the food was spilled on floor and no one came to clean it even after saying 2-3 times. 2. We were not served rotis/breads even after waiting for 20-25 minutes and all the vegetables is our plate became cold till then. 3. We got water and cutlery after asking thrice for it, which should be kept in advance ideally. 4. In the room service, we got the wrong drinks 3 times. 5. In the breakfast buffet, there were very few options to eat and the cutlery problem was the same. We had only 2 spoons amoung 4 members and noone gave as they busy with other stuff. 6. We asked for interconnected rooms 10 days before check-in and the staff confirmed it too. But, noone gave it at the moment and the reception guys denied that the info. wasn't passed to them. 7. The wifi signal was very poor and we were dependent on mobile data throughout our stay. Due to long weekend, the property was sold out and they were not able to manage even the basic things. There was hustle and bustle everywhere within the staff and they didn't have a second to listen to you. It was a terrible experience and we won't recommend it. COMPLETE MONEY WASTAGE. ##### Arpita Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Adrian 30 Mar 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Facilities a bit run down. Ground floor rooms smell of damp. Confusion over boat trip. Nice location. ##### Adrian Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 7 Jan 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities I really liked the location but other important things like staff courtesy, response to inquiries, room cleanliness and sharing information regarding sight seeing seemed to be absent. There was mosquito infestation as soon as it got dark so this was a hinderance if people needed to go outside their rooms in the evening. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 14 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Luxury Resort A luxury Backwater resort with lots of activities. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 9 Apr 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great getaway spot. Very relaxing. I feel like the food can be better. It wasn’t anything extraordinary. But everything else was on point. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Luis, McLean, VA 3 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff is very nice and professional. Our room was clean and we received an upgrade for the second night. The resort looks in really good condition even though the region was hit severely by the monsoon last season. ##### Luis Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Denis 15 May 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Très bel hôtel pour un grand moment de détente Très bel hôtel pour apprécier les backwaters. Service fantastique. Je recommande la journée en bateau, un grand moment de détente grâce à la gentillesse du personnel. Piscine très agréable au milieu du lac. Restaurant à la hauteur du luxe de l'endroit. Seul bémol: les chambres mériteraient une petite rénovation mais à ce niveau cela reste du détail. ##### Denis Stayed 2 nights in May 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Michal 15 Apr 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great experience overall A great experience overall: comfortable and peaceful. The gardens are amazing and well maintained. There is a complimentary 1-hour boat ride at 5pm and a Keralan dance performance in the evening. The food is delicious. The staff are very attentive. For a 5-star hotel there are some serious shortcomings though: pigeons soiled continually our balcony and no one ever cleaned it; most of the gym equipment is outworn and dysfunctional; towels could have been cleaner. ##### Michal ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dana , Toronto Canada 27 Mar 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A lovely experience The resort is so tranquil with its location away from hub of town and all boat business. They cater to your every whim! They included river boat rides back and forth to the houseboats hub and take you on a sunset riverboat cruise every evening. The food is delicious with wonderful breakfast!!! The room very comfortable!!!! All in all it’s a great deal very fulfilling!!! We enjoyed our green tea and consultation with Aruyvedic doctor...he was so accommodating!!!! Don’t miss this resort when in Kerala!!! ##### Dana Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Lindsey, San Clemente CA 2 Mar 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cancelled on us the night before Cancelled on us the night before leaving us with out a hotel in India for 3 nights with nothing available near by. ##### Lindsey Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 30 Dec 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great resort!
