Coconut Lagoon is a charming resort, set near the stunning Vembanad Lake in Kumarakom, Kerala. Accessible only by boat from the shores of Vembanad lake, the resort comprises of old villas, mansions and bungalows. Each of these were sourced from the local surroundings and transported piece by piece to the present location, and then painstaking restored by local craftsmen. The result is a complex of luxuriously furnished heritage properties – a perfect choice for discerning travellers.
Housed within this eco-friendly, traditional Keralan village style Coconut Lagoon, are 50 heritage cottages. Grouped into villas, mansions and bungalows, these are scattered throughout the resort’s tropical forest, many with their own gardens, private pools and views of the canals. Each cottage is a work of art, built in traditional wood based architecture and ancient science of craftsmanship. Inside, rooms are luxuriously furnished to complement the elegance of these homesteads.
Dining at the Coconut Lagoon is a gourmet affair. All meals are carefully prepared by expert local chefs using traditional recipes, fresh spices and locally sourced organic ingredients. For relaxation there is a large swimming pool but the real highlight is the Ayurvedic centre that encapsulates an atmosphere of peace and tranquillity. Activities include learning to play the Keralan Drums, watch a Keralan cultural show or walk around the marshes to spot some rare birds.
