Sleepy cottage-style villas adorned with intricate wooden carvings are set around a meandering 250 metre long swimming pool within twenty five acres of lush greenery. In the two hundred year old ‘ettukettu’, an eight-sided mansion with pleasant courtyards, guests can enjoy a range of cuisines from native delicacies to the best of international fare, or relax on the banks of the backwaters and enjoy seafood at Vembanad.

Open every evening, the Thattukada traditional tea shop is the perfect place to soak up the resort’s ambience over speciality teas, pastries and freshly fried snacks. Recreations focus around the lake, hub for all manner of cruises and watersports.
