When we got there we were told there is no in room dining and there is no food available between 3.00 and 7.00pm and we had reached the hotel after a 6 hour journey. This is a first 5 star hotel I have seen that has no room service.I had paid in full in advance and yet I left the hotel and checked into a nearby hotel and no refund was given.

One of my friends who had been to Kerala years back and actually had stayed at the Taj recommended that I check Coconut Lagoon out cause she remembered the place leaving quite an impression on her back then. There are some places that have the potential to remain etched in your memory and this experience that I got to share with my mom is one of those! We went for a week in August. Coconut Lagoon is one place to gather some exquisite local experience along with luxurious comfort that CGH Earth promises and did indeed deliver. It was a last-minute trip so I wanted to pick a place where we could have a good time and the folks at Coconut Lagoon really went an extra mile! It felt like they always had our backs while we were there (and despite the crazy rainy weather). It is described as a ‘treasure in the backwaters of Kerala’ and honestly that did not feel exaggerated from our experience. We had booked the Heritage Bungalow and got an amazing view of the backwaters where in the evenings, we could sit and enjoy a tea ritual, soaking in the serene nature all around us. You get to see eagles (& all their antics!), kingfisher, and all these other birds without even going anywhere! The entire property is very carefully designed to preserve elements of the local environment rather than making it stand out like a sore thumb like how some luxury resorts do. Other resorts could learn a thing or two from their sustainable tourism efforts. Loved it!

Serene experience is the only other name to the stay. Property is amazing with all the natural resources, rooms, amenities etc. Ayurveda center, shop, restaurant equally wonderful to the room. We had got the back water view. I would like to mention bathroom. I had never experienced open to air bathroom with a tree inside. I loved the experience.

Coconut Lagoon has a beautiful setting with the lake and canals as a backdrop. The rooms are traditional and made of heritage Keralan wood. The ambience is peaceful and relaxing. The rooms are clean and tidy with an open top bathroom which has a banana tree. The only snag is in summer it gets very hot and it would be good for guests to have a fan inside the bathroom. There are plenty of activities to choose from and excellent restaurants. It would be good to also have Keralan desserts. Evening entertainment is musical or classical dancing which was superb.

Excellent location and services. Staff is very humble and helpful. Must visit if you are planning Kumarakom. Being a CGHEarth property, they support responsible tourism and is serene and plastic free land. But the food at the resort is overpriced, so try to get the full board package and not custom order. The seafood restaurant serves great food too, but again it is also overpriced. Karimeen is a must eat fish there. Also, absolutely avoid their Ayurvedic massages, uselessly priced and not worth the cost at all. The doctor at the ayurvedic centre asks to club 2-3 services while they all end up being the same.

Idyllisch und erholsam unter Palmen direkt am See

Sehr schönes, originelles Resort am See in Kerala. wir waren in einem der uralten Bungalow mit Blick auf die Flussmündung in den See und trotzdem sehr ruhig gelegen. Die ganze Anlage und Hoteleigenen Angebote sind auf Erholung zugeschnitten. Superfreundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Der SPA-Bereich kann wärmstens empfohlen werden. Ein so breites Angebot an Behandlungen, auch medizinisch, haben wir noch nie gesehen. Jeden Morgen und Abend gibt es Yoga und Meditation im Hoteleigenen Zentrum. Der Flughafentransfer beinhaltet eine zweistündige Aufofahrt und am Schluss den Boottransfer in die Anlage. Das Hotel kann wärmstens empfohlen werden!!! Übrigens: Dieses Hotel wird auch im ultimativen Weltreiseführer "1000 Places to see befor you die" empfohlen!

Our one night at this hotel was intended to be the luxurious highlight of our India trip, and we were not disappointed. From arrival to departure, we were met with the kindest service, attention to detail, and high quality at every turn. I would recommend staying at least two nights to take full advantage of all that this resort has to offer - we regretted only booking one night. Even during monsoon season, this place was beautiful, serene and utterly relaxing.

Missing "Customer Delight"

Having stayed in a nearby resort few years ago which currently is ranked lower than Coconut Lagoon, we expected much more from this property, but were a bit disappointed that it did not meet our expectations. What gives a property in this segment over their competitors is the quality of food and the service; in both fronts CL need to do some work in order to be able to retain their current ranking.
