Club Mahindra Kumarakom

Though the resort needs some beautification work, the property is really calm and peaceful. Very big swimming pool and excellent restaurant which serves authentic kerala cuisine. Try crab masala with steamed rice.

Kumarakom is a village on Vembanad Lake in the backwaters of Kerala, Southern India. It consists of lots of canals, where houseboats ply the waters. Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary is home to many species including cuckoos and Siberian storks. In the lake, Pathiramanal Island is a haven for rare migratory birds, which is very closeby.. Nearby within 2 and a half KM radius there are one or two ancient temples and churches ( at "Kudavacghoor".) The lakes & paddy fields are really a memory to cherish. And this is a place which lies under sea level.

Ok..had gone to this with my parents,family and sister. First of all it's a little bit interior and the entry to road is narrow so you have to be careful especially in night. Second the restaurant was in an ac room ,so ambience is ok and you won't get the natural feel of Kumarakom. The food as such was not anything new. Their menu is same that can be got in any normal restaurant. Food was ok.. we had gone around 3 PM a time where we were told that they were about to close their restaurant so don't they have ala Carte..overall it's good.. my parents were happy.
