Lovely relaxed stay

Very nice, very helpful staff. Lovely property—especially the villas with private pools. Good gym, good restaurant. Only downside is that it’s pretty isolated with not a lot to do nearby. But if relaxation is what you want, you’ll get it.

We were very impressed with our 4 days at The Zuri Kumarakom. We were surprised to be told that the property is about 25 years old, because it's superb maintenance suggested a much younger age to us. As we rode into the property, we were a bit shocked to see a lot of policemen around. And that turned into panic when they accosted our taxi cab at the hotel porch. I was looking for hotel staff to help us avoid the policemen and to whisk us into the reception. As the policemen unloaded our luggage from the taxi, we broke into laughter realizing that they were actually security staff from the Ambassador Security services! At the reception, Ms Sanu greeted us and readily accepted my request to see the other room types before we occupied the one I'd booked online via Expedia. We liked the villas the most, but it was way more expensive than what the two of could justify splurging. So we settled for an upgrade to the cottage and Ms Sanu helpfully processed the charge of the difference amount. It was an amazing experience to be in the quaint cottage right on the man made lake adjoining the mighty Vembanad Lake. At 4:30pm we went to the Lime Cafe for the complimentary high tea. There, we were offered a sunset ride on the shikara boat. It was quiet inexpensive at Rs 250 plus taxes per person. When we boarded, we realized we were the only ones on board. It was an amazing ride and Aswin was our impeccable host boatman. Our dinner was at the Lime Cafe and we ordered A La Carte as b

Worst and pathetic service

This was the worst stay we had. The service is too poor. Arrogance or mr. Abhishek ( duty manager) and his behiaviour and attitude is absolutely not acceptable. Also non of the department accepts ther mistakes. It also takes nearly 45 min to have bath towels to the room and nearly 2 hours to have food. ☹️☹️ very disappointing and horrible service.

Nice Kumarakom resort

We liked the stay here. Very quiet and the breakfast was good too. The staff were friendly and helpful (although we had to manage our luggage ourselves on and off the buggy which was strange for a 5 star hotel). There are tons of spa options and enjoyed the treatment that we had was good. The water wasn't getting warm enough and when checked been told that it is set to a temp of 45 degree but it wasn't hot enough for the bath tub. The cottages have the balcony with the lagoon view but the poor design of the roof means we cant stay there while raining (or after rain till its dried out). Majority of the place was still closed post lockdown so we couldnt explore it all but it was well worth the money.

Liked the cottage style rooms and views. Loved the spa. Great massage by Ambili!!! There was not much to do there. The 2 small boat activities are kind of boring and no guests were seen doing them. There is an amphitheater area but no dance or performance was done while we stayed Mon - Thurs. This could be a really nice place for guests to gather and be entertained. The bar with happy hour is hard to find and kind of hidden so hardly anyone comes there. It is really nice and would make a cool place for guests to hang out. Make it more accessible!!! Based on site information, I expected the small lagoon boat ride to be included in the daily rates but it was an extra Rs. 3000. Overall nice property but it could use some more entertainment or community gathering activities.
