Family Kerala Holiday
Family-friendly activities and properties paced to avoid long travel times but to embrace a diverse array of landscapes and ways of life.
This isolated resort is accessible only by boat from the banks of stunning Lake Vembanad in the Kuttanad district of Kerala. The accommodation consists of old mansions, sourced from the local surroundings, transported piece by piece to the resort location, and then beautifully restored in painstaking detail by local craftsmen. Charming canals frequently intersect the tropical gardens on the property, which make it a particularly unique and special place to stay a few days.
It’s easy to do day cruises in the backwaters from Coconut Lagoon, and the renowned Kavanar Bird Sanctuary is close at hand. Time spent at the resort itself is a pleasure – it is particularly well known for great Ayurvedic treatments and outstanding traditional Keralan cuisine, with a focus on terrific seafood.
The rooms are all unique – choose from heritage bungalows, private luxury pool villas or grand and glorious heritage mansions. The pool villa is a particularly luxurious experience, situated on a secluded stretch of Lake Vembanad with a private plunge pool in a lovely courtyard and terrace.
This is a lovely and private option for families and truly luxurious experience for honeymooners and couples. A great option to get the chance for reflection and relaxation away from the backwater crowds in picturesque Kerala.
Superior - This is what we would describe as our standard category. These will be decent 3/4* hotels providing a really good level of service. We would generally expect them to be providing a little something extra, in terms of character, guest experience or facilities too.
