Resort is at the edge of Vembanad lake. As soon as you get down from the boat, you feel the pull of nature. THe lake side rooms are amazing, pool is nice, and the restaurant is fabulous.. esp if you want authentic Kerela food. The Kerela spa is great too. Most of the other rooms have Kerela architecture, and one... More

Good food, clean rooms, wonderful setting on park-like grounds. Chef is very good. The landscape/greenery are excellent. The resort takes great care in delivering a high-level of service -- from the airport pickup to their sunset backwater cruise. As others have noted, the pricing scheme was a bit odd, though. We found a room with a much cheaper rate through... More

Website: The web site of Punnamada is not the user-friendliest and does not instill sufficient confidence to conduct online transaction. Hence we made our bookings through an online vendor. Reservation: We made reservations for their hose boats by directly contacting the hotel as the descriptions provided by the online vendors were inconsistent with the descriptions on the hotel web site....

Our 3 night stay in the Punnamada Resort was lovely. Good time to relax and get away from it all. This place is about a 3 hours drive away from Kochi International Airport. Once you get there it is in a really secluded place - a little far away from civilization. If you want peace and quite. This is it.... More
