Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom

Our spontaneous change of plans led us to a relaxing staycation, where we could unwind and spend quality time as a family. It was a short yet refreshing two-night escape. We arrived at our Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom around 5:30 PM after a long but scenic 200 km road journey—leaving us a bit exhausted. A quiet dinner at the Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom set the tone for a restful night. The next morning, we indulged in the luxury of sleeping in before heading for a leisurely breakfast. A quick trip to Kottayam city was necessary for some essential shopping, and while there, we enjoyed a delightful lunch at a renowned restaurant serving authentic nadan cuisine. The flavors were rich and satisfying, making it a memorable meal. By evening, we were back in time for the much-anticipated shikara sunset ride—undoubtedly the highlight of our stay. This was our third visit to this beautiful backwater destination, with our previous visits being before Covid. However, this time felt extra special as it was our first visit after our daughter was born. Watching the golden hues of the sunset reflect over the calm waters while experiencing it through her curious eyes made it all the more magical. On our way back, we stopped at Tharavadu toddy shop for dinner, where the food turned out to be even better than what we had at the Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom. The next morning, we made the most of our private pool, a perfect way to start our final day before checkout. The staff were courteous, and while the restaurant food was just average (a common experience for someone from Kozhikode!), the beautiful ambiance and the luxury of the private pool made up for it. The pricing was on the higher side, but the overall experience was well worth it. It was a brief yet much-needed getaway, blending relaxation, local Kottayam food, and scenic beauty—just what we needed!

Had to book this stay purely to write this review as i cannot write a review without staying in a Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom through mm t booking. I am a doctor and was due in kumarakom for 26 and 27 jean for a talk in kerala orthopedic meeting. Had paid the money (rs 33706) in advance. But when my wife and i reached here i was told the Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom, niramaya, didn’t know anything about the booking. Shocked! the Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom and mm t kept blaming each other and i finally didn’t have a place to stay in kumarakom. The mm t couldn’t offer an equivalent Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom that night in kumarakom as it was all booked up. Had to return home in ernakulam 2 hours away. I booked this Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom through mm t again next day day as this was the only way i could write this review. Their agent next day called up to say trying to make it sound it was my fault for not choosing the substandard house boat they suggested instead of a five star accommodation as originally planned. I will not be using mm t services anymore with this experience. The mm t have not paid me back nor have they replied to my email so far.

I recently stayed at this property, and overall, it was an excellent experience. The amenities were top-notch, including a beautiful lake pool, luxurious villas, and a well-maintained, spacious garden with plenty of room for kids to play. The pool was exceptionally large and clean, adding to the resort’s charm. One of the highlights of our stay was the variety of activities available, such as fish feeding, swan feeding, and kite flying. The swans in the garden were particularly delightful and added a unique touch to the serene atmosphere. However, the service did not meet expectations for a five-star resort. Every time we called reception to request something, there was a significant delay in response. In many instances, we had to follow up multiple times, which was quite disappointing. A resort of this caliber should provide more prompt and efficient service. Despite the service shortcomings, the overall experience was enjoyable, and the property itself is truly remarkable. If they improve their service responsiveness, this could easily be a perfect getaway destination.

Good: comfortable rooms and excellent ambience. Buffet breakfast had excellent options and there was no crowding at the swimming pool throughout the stay. Bad: there was no medical kit with essential medicines like vicks, paracetamol etc readily available at the Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters and beyond, Kumarakom which was disappointing. The evening tea and snacks served at the chaayakada stall could be improved and the tea was surprisingly always cold even though it was brewed fresh at the stall private pools at the private pool villas had lot of debris (though how much this can be controlled is doubtful. Still it took away a little from the experience of the private pool. Also the colour of the tiles made it seem like the water was dirty even though it was not.

Best service from staff staff friendliness: warm, welcoming, and attentive staff. Professionalism: knowledgeable and efficient service across all resort departments. Personalization: staff remembers guest preferences and provides personalized experiences. Responsiveness: quick response to requests or issues, ensuring guest satisfaction.

Perfect for a weekend getaway. Quality of Food is good. Spa service is so relaxing . Rooms are spacious

Had a very good comfortable stay at niraamaya. Many activities including kite flying, swan feeding, fish feeding and yoga. Staff was also very friendly. However, food options are not upto the mark in buffet and has to be improved. Over all stay experience is very good.

The resort and service was really good and the staffs of the whole resort is very friendly. The location of the resort is very good facing the lake.
