of India – Cochin - Coconut Lagoon
COCONUT LAGOON, Kumarakom
Rated as one of the top 15 beautiful spots in the world by the National Geographic, the coconut lagoon resort is hidden amongst the palm trees on the eastern shores of Lake Vembanad in Kerala. The resort can only be reached by Boat- a ferry leaves from one of the several mainland embarkation points at scheduled times throughout the day- and its accommodation consists of individual cottages called tharawads, the traditional wooden houses of Kerala. Though some of these cottage are of recent vintage, many are well over a century old and a few actually date back to the early 1700s. We also suggest that you take a look at the newly built villas with private plunge pools.
