Taj Kumarakom Resort & Spa, Kerala

Name: Taj Kumarakom Resort & Spa, Kerala
Address: 1/404, Kumarakom, Kottayam, Kerala 686563, Kumarakom, IN

★★★★☆

Taj Kumarakom is built around a bungalow put up in 1881 by an English missionary, Henry Baker. The estate he planted has grown into a small resort next to the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary, on the edge of Lake Vembanad. There are twenty-eight rooms, cottages and villas, set among old rain trees and a lotus lagoon. The original bungalow is now a suite and a restaurant. Some villas have a private plunge pool. Because the resort shares a boundary with the bird sanctuary, the dawn chorus here is loud and genuine. The J Wellness Circle spa runs Ayurveda alongside the usual treatments. This is the value tier for Kumarakom against the heritage resorts nearby, and it is still a full Taj property on a rare piece of ground.
