"Absolutely loved the stay at Gokulam, great service from the staff, delicious meals and fun complimentary activities. Took the premium lake view rooms and it was breathtakingly beautiful."

"we stayed at kumarakom park resort for a night. it was an excellent experience and we had a good time..the room was neat,spacious and comfortable. the staff were friendly and helped us in booking a boat ride.. "

"We loved this resort and our cute, classic cottage although at first the resort felt like too large a property for us after all the small hotels we had stayed in during the prior few weeks. But it felt just right once we knew our way around. We could have stayed for longer - the setting on the lake is stunning, the pool area is so inviting and the food is good with amazing variety. We had lunch poolside, dinner in the fish restaurant and breakfast in the main dining room where the buffet is incredibly varied and tasty. We enjoyed the yoga and included sunset boat ride as well. You arrive and depart this resort by boat which is fun and unique and you are never missing a water view from this property - it is so picturesque and scenic. The outdoor seating areas and the amazing lush grounds make it feel so private and expansive - there are many walking paths to enjoy and we liked the butterfly garden. There is a rec room and gym but we did not have time to use them. We enjoyed the provided entertainment - evening dance show over a cocktail before dinner and morning music in the dining room. We would stay longer next time for sure."

"Rhythm kumarakom. A property that drew me to it was the sheer expanse of its pool. With a length of 150 meters, it’s best to take a pool cottage as that helps u step straight from your room into the pool ! and that’s quite a perk ! the rooms are clean and the usual kind that we find in any luxury property. They are not ultra luxurious and would rate them as 3/5. Though i must say they are clean and v comfortable. The bathroom has 2 showers with one that’s even open to sky. Which unfortunately i could not use as there’s no hot water in that one. But every time, anything falls short the pool makes up for it more than enough ! the waters really good and the pool is extremely clean. The staff is courteous and though language is a bit of a problem ( which seemed to be the case all over kumarakom) it’s not difficult to manage. For lovers of south indian - keralite cuisine this place is idle. The food and service in the restaurant is good with reasonable rates. And a special mention is befitting ashwin, aashna and the service manager bijou. The property expanse is not much so if u are looking for sprawling gardens and pathways. Rhythm would not be the chosen one. There are bicycles available but surprisingly this is the first time i came across a luxury resort that charges its guests rs 250+ taxes as rent on an hourly basis. That is an expense which usually is something i have not encountered and a bit of a put off. The spa is good but think it’s over priced. Overall it’s a property worth visiting without any regrets. Just a heads up - you must prepare urself to see a whole lot of guests swimming in their regular t-shirts ! though mentioned that only swimming attire would be permitted, don’t be surprised to see women in salwar suits. Men and boys in t-shirts with their swimming trunks ! the blessing here is that the pool is so big that this ghastly sight seems v far and distant ! lol would give this property a solid 4. 3 out of 5"

"Rustic back water resort, enjoyed the theme. We stayed 3 nights in 3 meandering pool villas. The villas were comfortable with good facilities and direct access to the longest pool i have ever been. Very friendly staff. Faiyz and Ancy in the restaurant were exceptional, Faiyz made sure we were well taken care off, excellent hospitality. Kavi made sure all our photos were taken, he is a professional photographer indeed, the pottery artist Arun was really good in teaching to make pottery, my family enjoyed his workshop. The front desk staff were excellent in answering all our questions, Vishnu worked really hard to make sure all our luggage were taken care even before we had to ask. Faisal was our butler in the houseboat, he was excellent and took care of all our needs. To end all well, front office manager Mr Rahul and general manager Mr Sajeesh came out introduced themselves and stayed with us until our cab left the property- what an experience, these people are busy running this beautiful property, yet they made sure we were looked after personally that this kind of service you dont find these days even in 4 or 5 diamond hotels. The resort had Excellent facilities that all could enjoy, the backwater and landscapes are unreal, but it is the staff that made the stay memorable- kudos to team at KLR."

"We had a wonderful stay at Backwater Ripples! The resort is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by stunning backwater views. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. The food was delicious, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable. It was the perfect place to unwind and spend quality time with family. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Backwater Ripples to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable getaway in Kerala. We would love to come back again! ❤️❤️❤️"

"It's location is near lake bed and connected to lake and bird sanctuary Rooms here was too spacious and nice atmosphere with good vibes as its a big property with limited rooms, villas and suites . Its definitely a value for money property in kumarakom as its a very silent area and with all amenities and top Hospitality. Here i came across Abinav sir he was also helpful and good in nature Every staff here was helpful If want to go for shikara or boat ride pls take on your own from outside property near by"

"Excellent service and exceptional view. Stay was worth the money we paid. The food was fresh and the place just felt like a home. We had a great time fishing at the premises and the location is so calm and serene. Special mention to the cooks and the caretaker Arjun."

"Had just one night here on an Intrepid Tour of South India. A lovely modern hotel with good rooms and restaurant. Pleasant staff too. There is also a nice swimming pool etc. What makes this hotel is its suburb setting overlooking paddy fields. There is a delightful raised outlook area to sit, have a refreshing drink, chill overlooking the fields/water and to watch the birds etc. etc. You can also do a great local walk around the river/water. Definitely recommended."
