We went to Lemon tree in Feb 2013. We stayed in the Pool Deck Room. The resort has a very good view from the pool. The rooms were clean and nicely maintained. The food is excellent. Being on a honeymoon, we liked the best was the extended breakfast timings (till 11 AM). We could get up late for the breakfast. But were surprised to find that largely the food had become cold when we went for the breakfast at 10.30 AM. But on the next day when we had a relatively early breakfast and dinner, the food was served hot. We enjoyed watching movies from the DVD Library.
Carrying a wonderful experience from Poovar (another town in Kerala), the experience at Lemon Tree was Fairly Good. Overall was a good experience.

The room we stayed in for 3 nights was very comfortable and clean. It had direct access to the pool which we found very handy.

The rooms were well made up each day, with the "elephant" and "lotus" towel folding a cute touch.

The pool has a beautiful view overlooking the lake. You can watch the houseboats and fishermen go by and birds resting in the palm trees. Only gripe is the pool is losing many of its tiles - my toe was cut on the edge of one.

Our stay package included unlimited food and non-alcoholic beverages. We would recommend sticking with the Indian options on the menu, which were delicious and far superior to the Western options. Buffet breakfast offered a good array of choices.

We organised a motorcycle through the hotel, which made for an enjoyable day trip zooming through the streets and to the beaches.

Other facilities included - sitting room with books, computer room with internet and printers, table tennis table, massage and houseboat.

Overall recommended. Would be good for families.

I had a lovely time at the Lemon Tree - beautiful pool, lovely surroundings, good service and well managed. However, it was horrific to find terribly sexist jokes up in a number of places. For instance, see for yourselves on the table mats in the dining room. It is honestly pathetic that a decent hotel thinks that it is acceptable to perpetuate such crappy stereotypes about women. It demeans us all to eat from them and they are not funny.

World can be divided into those who have stayed inLemon tree resort ( Allepy , Kerala) a nd those who have not and i for one pity them.I am not exggerating.This is a small resort but well maintained.Reception was manned by Veeu,Anthony,Reethesh & Rasool.All of them went beyond call of duty to make us feel comfortable.I went with my family and to our joy we were upgraded to suit room(201).Honestly speaking we were left astonished on entring the room.Big glass windows showed the lake as the room was bang on lake shore and one side was tha pool.Morning sunrise view will always stay fresh in my memory .Room service was one of the best and quickest i have ever seen.Restaurent gave an excellent view of the lake.Restaurent was manned by Sandeep,Swatesh and Amit.They were very jovial, friendly and very professional.Chef Sher singh made our stay more memorable by serving some of the tastiest food .We had lot of fun in the swimming pool.Backwater boat ride was the cherry on thecake.Tagore (he is deaf & dumb) was always busy with the house keeping work.I salute Lemon tree's policy to employ differently abled persons.We were pampered tothe full.Here i must thank Veenu Varghese and Reethesh as they helped me in reservation.I convey my heartiest thanks to Anthony,Reethesh, Veenu,Rasool,Sandeep Updhaya, Amit Pandey ,Swatesh, Sher Singh and Tagore for makingmy trip memorable.The only time i felt sorry was while leaving but i promise to get back soon to see myfriends and enjoy the nature atits pristine .
