Coconut Lagoon (Kumarakom)

Kumarakom on the banks of Lake Vembanad has been cut-off from the rest of the world.....
And getting there is more than half the fun.

Hidden among the palm trees on the eastern shore of Lake Vembanad,at the mouth of the Kavanar River,Coconut Lagoon Heritage Resort is set on an abandoned coconut plantation in the very heart of these fascinating backwaters, and has been designed to give visitors an authentic insight into Kuttanad life.

For centuries the backwaters have provided a safe and efficient means of transportation for goods and people moving between the interior and the port towns along the coast.

Even today,coconuts,pepper,coir,rice,and other such products of the region are carried along these waterways in traditional boats called KETTUVALLAMS (or stitched canoes),and village children are ferried off to school in all sorts of country craft.

Relax on the lush green lawns or recline on the coconut trees to watch the sky and water.Want to go fishing,hop into either the speed boats or the Valloms-traditional small boats.

Kumarakom Lake Resort-a refreshing backwater experience.The splash of the water slapping softly on the resort banks provides a soothing background score.Take a breathtaking view of the lake during dawn and dusk and also get a glimpse of the formations of the birds flapping in and out of the bird sanctuary from any spot on the resort.
