Picturesque setting dotted with painstakingly restored/inspired traditional Kerala homes. Warm welcome by the front desk and everyone we met. There's a lot of history, especially in the main restaurant area. Even though the meandering pool villas are popular, I would recommend the Luxury Pavilion Rooms with Jacuzzi for those who appreciate a little more space. Food at Vebanad is great for the view and service (if you're lucky, you'll spot otters in the water). Sunset cruise with live Indian music is a nice touch. Oh, Ayurvedic Center is top, top class and super authentic. Overall accommodation, service, food and amenities are all 5 stars for sure. Thank you for a memorable stay.

Hotel's Favorite
We stayed here for a few nights. Experienced a night at the houseboat and then at their meandering pool room. If I have to describe my stay in 1 word -- it would be "FABULOUS" I would not like to name anyone, because it would be grave injustice to anyone who I wmay accidently miss out naming on but right from the reception area, to housekeeping, the kitchen, restaurants, activities -- each and every soul who works at KLR gives their heart out to make your stay is super memorable. At KLR -- they do not have the word NO in their dictionary. The food -- be it at the house boat or at the restaurant, is top notch. We had some restrictions on food, but they made sure that it was taken care of during our meals. We were celebrating my wife's birthday here -- they arranged for a nicely decorated corner table at the Seafood restaurant for us -- a quiet candle lit dinner, with noone around, dinner in peace with my wife -- could not have asked for more. Even our room was superbly decorated with the flowers and balloons as a surprise. I loved every moment I spent at KLR and would surely be returning there -- hopefully in a better weather. Early June is still summer time -- so can get a little warm during the day. The rooms are very well kept, in top notch condition -- and I loved the open bathroom concept. Also, we were fortunate ( and I do not believe this to be a coincidence. The ladies at the reception worked their magic) to get a corner room at the meandering pool. We got a nice pool and backwater view. Serene beauty. Thank you TEAM KLR for making our trip one of the most memorable trips. 🙏🏽 Lastly, if you happen to catch hold of Kavi - make sure to hand over your (camera) phone to him and watch the magic. …

Had heard a lot about this resort. The best part was the service. Very prompt. The villa was good but I loved the bathroom and the private jacuzzi. The evening boat ride with live music was one of a kind. Enjoyed every bit of the stay.

This was the best experience I’ve ever had in a hotel. The welcome was warm, the lobby is beautiful despite not being big. The architecture of the place is stunning. The rooms were a great size and swimming in the meandering pool was such a pleasure. The bathroom was enormous. The breakfast was extensive and unfailingly delicious. So many activities on site. The spa in particular was fabulous and the Ayurveda treatments are well worth the money. The only thing I was missing was a go-to contact at the hotel who is present and well-informed and personable. Although the staff were friendly, I didn’t feel that there was some I could rely on for slightly more unusual requests or information.

A beautiful property, with the best possible staff. Customer service was top notch, they went way beyond our expectations. The one nigh we spent on the boat was spectacular. The spa was great and they were very flexible with the appointments. Food was great in the restaurant. The front desk was really helpful in arranging trips to see local attractions and shopping.
