The Backwater Resort
Kumarakom, Kerala.
Kumarakom – A mesmerizing hamlet in the heart of Kerala’s backwater country.
The Backwater Resort is a full –service spanking new resort at Kumarakom hugging the shores of the Lake Vembanad. Spread across 3 acres the ambience here is typically Keralan yet complimented with every modern convenience.

Swaying coconut palms cast cool shadows over the twin storied dwelling units each with four double rooms all of which offer stunning views of the backwaters and let in cool fragrant breeze that endlessly cares the shore of the Lake Vembanad.
 
 
The architecture showcases the traditional style of Kerala with sloping tiled roofs supported by pillars and verandas archetypal to Keralan homesteads of yester years and complimented by landscaped gardens typical to large joint family households that once ruled this land. There is a swimming pool right on the lakes edge exuding a feeling of being afloat on the lake rather than in a pool. With large open spaces and strategically slung hammocks around.

The Backwater Resort is indeed an oasis that offers you the idyllic setting to relish the bounties of this hinterland.
