It was an awesome experience. The boat is well maintained and equipped with everything necessary and the staff was amazing. The chef cooked the best meals I have had in Kerala. It was extremely peaceful and fun. 10/10

Divya and Dileep were so warm and friendly - helped us with many local trips and served great breakfast. The location is really peaceful and serene. On top of this - the overnight trip in the backwaters on their boat was truly outstanding and best possible value for money!

The evening shikara ride was great for our group and was at the right price point - 2000 rupees for 2 hours for 2 families. The bird sanctuary was a big disappointment as there is not much to see and the facilities are also very poor - of the two bird watching towers one is damaged and other does not have a great view. Not many species of birds could be seen or heard, its more of a nature walk than a bird sanctuary.

As soon as we arrived it felt like Paradise.
As soon as we arrived it felt like Paradise. As the gates shut the noise and hustle bustle of an Indian town were left outside.
The beautiful old buildings in heritage style, lovely garden with trees and the only sound that of birdsong. It didn’t end there. All the staff from Vaisakh the Manager, Amal the Chef, the lady helping in the kitchen and the lady constantly sweeping the floors and working in the garden were helpful, courteous and always had a cheerful smile. The two men were happy to enter into conversations with us when they were not busy. They also responded immediately when asked for anything.
The food was delicious and well cooked but they found it amusing that we couldn’t handle the chillis in some of the dishes.
The pool was clean and cool and very welcoming in the heat.
We spent a very happy and relaxing week at Brookside Heritage Resort and it was the best place to start our Kerala adventure after a long and arduous journey from the UK. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We will definitely be back.

We stayed in a property that gave us half-board meals (dinner and breakfast) and had in-house activities such as a sunset boat cruise and an evening cultural show. All this reinforced the kerala theme and made for a wonderful experience.

The backwaters are unique with water lilies and a wide variety of birds that can be viewed in a Shikara at dawn. A houseboat to spend the day and enjoy local cuisine served using fresh fish caught and sold by fisherwomen on the banks is a fabulous experience.

Kumarakom is a lovely back water locality, away from the hustle bustle of the city. Its a relaxing environment where you can disconnect from the busy world outside and yet if you need to get back to it, it's just nearby.
Ambiance-Completely Blends with Nature
Traditional Kerala Style Cottages
Staff- Courteous and Humble
Things to Keep you occupied- Bird Watching(Mr Umesh and his team have an amazing knowledge and they take an extra step in educating people), Cultural Dance Performance, Yoga, Sunset Cruise (Beautiful Serene ride over the Vembunad Lake), Musicians who played Tabla Mr Jayan and an elderly person who played Flute were too good.
Over all we had a Great Holiday. Looking forward to go back and enjoy the blissful stay we had.
Thanks
We have stayed here before and were made very welcome by Divya and her family. It is well placed next to a wide river in the Backwaters and very relaxing. They were very good at letting us use their Kayak and treated us to a trip on their lovely backwater boat. Breakfast and dinner were very good and the whole place had a lovely family atmosphere. They are the kind of people you can develop a very positive relationship with. We look forward to staying there again.

staff: they are always at our service very polite professional team
location- beautiful location
we are greed to visit again grand villa houseboat soon
Beautiful property. The main swimming pool and the private swimming pool were both amazing. The grounds are extremely well maintained and the rooms are beautifully decorated and very comfortable. By far and away the best thing about Gokulam Grand Resort was the friendliness and helpfulness of every staff member, from the chef to the front desk. They all really made us feel at home.
One of the best properties I have visited in Kumarakoam. The staff was really friendly and service was top notch. Special appreciation to Mr. Noyal Front Office Manager, Pardeep Housekeeping, Executive Chef and the entire team. Food was really up to the mark and well prepared. The location is also quite nice. I would say this is a must visit place if you are in Kochi.
Extremely bad experience. This stay was a gift to a couple and the guest was charged the day they checked in. Inspite of making alternate payment the money collected from the couple was not refunded for 2 days. The manager at the facility did not meet the guest inspite of requesting to meet the manager 3 times. Emails to the hotel went unanswered. Would not recommend
We had a really good time and enjoyed every moment..wonderful place immersed in the aesthetic beauty of nature with such kind wonderful staffs . We really enjoyed the stay and food was exceptional. The perfect chicken chettinad in a long time.. Overall ambience, beauty of backwaters and the entire resort was fantastic.will come agian
The location of the homestay & friendliness of the host and the staff was so good and made our stay exceptional. Having breakfast on the balcony with the view of the canal or dinner with the best sunset view was a blast. We saw so many birds, we didn't need to go to the nearby bird sanctuary. Would definitely come back here.
Location is at main road side so easy to locate, but hotel name does not come in Google map, only their restaurant name come in Google map.The health faucet was not working well,The road to hang clothes was missing.I asked for a kettle &tea bags which they provided.Room was neat &clean
Divya and Dileep were so warm and friendly - helped us with many local trips and served great breakfast. The location is really peaceful and serene. On top of this - the overnight trip in the backwaters on their boat was truly outstanding and best possible value for money!
Breakfast was even better.My parent’s were staying there for one night and I got good comments from the hotel and staffs and the overall atmosphere.Will visit there again.I m glad that I was able to get a better stay for my parents.
beautiful setting of bungalows next to the lake. A lovely atmosphere in the hotel, nice surroundings and very helpful and friendly staff. Rooms were excellent with a little dressing room too.
A serene and picturesque setting with a blend of modern and traditional architecture, complemented by refreshing breezes from the surrounding paddy fields and lake at Moun de Kumarakom.
Am really appreciate the given facilities, excellent staffing and they really treated personally am very very happy to stayed there, Even am referring to my friend and family members
Beautiful hotel with amazing lake view. The pool access room was great. The restaurant very good, little bit expensive.
The staff was really nice. Highly recommend
