Coconut Lagoon

Coconut Lagoon is an enchanting holiday resort nestled along the backwaters of Kerala. Though in the country side, the resort is not stripped of the comforts that you take for granted in the cities. You will be pampered with all the niceties that you crave for in a holiday. Situated at Kumarakom, a charming island surrounded by the backwaters, this plush resort offers a mix of privacy and luxury. The resort provides the dual accommodation facilities of bungalows and cottages. You can go for the one that suits your needs and fits into your budget.

The ancient science of architecture called 'Thachu Shastra' has played a pivotal role in the construction of this resort. Coconut Lagoon derived its present form by combining the traditional "tharawads" that once existed in various parts of Kerala. These ancient homesteads were dismantled from where they belonged and put together neatly. The structure that now stands tall as the reception area was originally an 'illom', a Brahmin dwelling built around two centuries back.. The 'Naalukettu' model of the illom will surely take you back in time. Abundant space, supreme service and high standards of quality are what you get when you stay here. The large and spacious bedrooms at the resort are attached with open-to-sky bathrooms. These distinctly styled bathrooms are created with the purpose of rewarding you with a pleasant holiday close to nature.

Lunches and Dinners at Coconut Lagoon is a real feast . Sample the typical Kerala cuisine that goes well with this kind of village holiday . You can also check out the multi-cuisine restaurant here which offers a wide range of continental and Indian dishes. There is a well-stocked bar and an impressive Ayurveda centre. Take some time out from all the fun activities you get to do in Kumarakom, and embrace Ayurveda. There can be very few better ways to enrich your holiday. A treat to the body and mind, a massage here can work wonders to uplift your mood and soothe your senses. When you staying along the backwaters , its only natural that you want to explore it. Coconut Lagoon will arrange sunset cruises in the evenings for the amusement of the tourists.
