The boat house was clean, chef prepared food was great, he matched our expectations very well and flawless. We expected boat driver to be a little more interactive to at least inform us what areas we were crossing, he did inform only if we asked, not otherwise. That was the only deterrent from me giving a 5 star rating. Else the experience was just perfect.

Forty two of the forty four freshwater rivers originating in the Western Ghats flow eastwards forming an intricate network of waterways. Backwaters are formed when these rivers empty themselves into the Arabian Sea. Kumarakom is perched on the western banks of the Vembanad Lake and has about 900 sq. kms of backwater ripples spread endlessly into the horizon. Kumarakom is a fascinating hamlet where tradition and modernity go hand in hand. A blend of tradition and culture is interwoven in the lives of the natives living in ancient rustic homes with temples and churches. At the same time, you can spot tourists glide through the canoe, motorboat or houseboats and accommodated in state of the art guesthouses, hotels and resorts.
