Amazing property .. with a beautiful view of the lake And a man made lagoon .. the restaurant serves the most delicious food. We tried buffet and Ala cart and were not disappointed. The break fast spread also was very good. The room was lovely with a view of the lagoon

Spa treatment was great. Excursions could be better coordinated during the rainy season. I’m sure the excursions are better during the dry season.

We were very impressed with our 4 days at The Zuri Kumarakom.
We were surprised to be told that the property is about 25 years old, because it's superb maintenance suggested a much younger age to us.
As we rode into the property, we were a bit shocked to see a lot of policemen around. And that turned into panic when they accosted our taxi cab at the hotel porch. I was looking for hotel staff to help us avoid the policemen and to whisk us into the reception. As the policemen unloaded our luggage from the taxi, we broke into laughter realizing that they were actually security staff from the Ambassador Security services!
At the reception, Ms Sanu greeted us and readily accepted my request to see the other room types before we occupied the one I'd booked online via Expedia. We liked the villas the most, but it was way more expensive than what the two of could justify splurging. So we settled for an upgrade to the cottage and Ms Sanu helpfully processed the charge of the difference amount. It was an amazing experience to be in the quaint cottage right on the man made lake adjoining the mighty Vembanad Lake.
At 4:30pm we went to the Lime Cafe for the complimentary high tea. There, we were offered a sunset ride on the shikara boat. It was quiet inexpensive at Rs 250 plus taxes per person. When we boarded, we realized we were the only ones on board. It was an amazing ride and Aswin was our impeccable host boatman.
Our dinner was at the Lime Cafe and we ordered A La Carte as b

It's really very well maintained resort with lovely staff. Food is very pricey though. Other than that was a good stay. If you want peace and quiet with lots of greenery this is place to go.

This was the worst stay we had. The service is too poor. Arrogance or mr. Abhishek ( duty manager) and his behiaviour and attitude is absolutely not acceptable. Also non of the department accepts ther mistakes. It also takes nearly 45 min to have bath towels to the room and nearly 2 hours to have food.
☹️☹️ very disappointing and horrible service.

Beautiful location and grounds.
Excellent accommodations, clean and comfortable. Wonderful staff. General facilities are in the process of post-covid maintenance, but still very nice.

Property is great. Lovely in fact. Wooded, nestled amongst trees and a lake. Picture perfect. Service was slightly less than expected. We could check in only at 5 pm. Service at the tables were slightly slower. Staff made every effort though. Did massages at Maya Spa - awesome. I will stay again for sure.

We liked the stay here. Very quiet and the breakfast was good too. The staff were friendly and helpful (although we had to manage our luggage ourselves on and off the buggy which was strange for a 5 star hotel). There are tons of spa options and enjoyed the treatment that we had was good. The water wasn't getting warm enough and when checked been told that it is set to a temp of 45 degree but it wasn't hot enough for the bath tub.The cottages have the balcony with the lagoon view but the poor design of the roof means we cant stay there while raining (or after rain till its dried out).Majority of the place was still closed post lockdown so we couldnt explore it all but it was well worth the money.

Liked the cottage style rooms and views. Loved the spa. Great massage by Ambili!!!There was not much to do there. The 2 small boat activities are kind of boring and no guests were seen doing them. There is an amphitheater area but no dance or performance was done while we stayed Mon - Thurs. This could be a really nice place for guests to gather and be entertained. The bar with happy hour is hard to find and kind of hidden so hardly anyone comes there. It is really nice and would make a cool place for guests to hang out. Make it more accessible!!!Based on site information, I expected the small lagoon boat ride to be included in the daily rates but it was an extra Rs. 3000. Overall nice property but it could use some more entertainment or community gathering activities.

Zuri is beautiful, relaxing and set in stunning scenery. The staff are wonderful, the food is really excellent, and you get to try Keralan specialities each day as well as a wide choice. I particularly enjoyed the spa and gym where Sinoj Pillai the trainer was so kind and spent time with me every day helping me through some injuries, full of excellent advice on stretching, and leaving me after 13 days convinced and positive about the progress I had made. The house boat experience on offer was a huge treat, going to Allepi and experiencing the backwaters and the incomparable wildlife and bird life is memorable. Couldn't recommend it more highly, as a whole or part of a trip to the wonderful state of Kerala this is somewhere I will return

Once you are past the property gates it is beautiful. Getting there could be a task especially if it's the person visiting is not familiar with the area. You need to go through narrow lanes. The Staff of the hotel really need to up their game. There's a lot lacking before the hotel can call themselves a 5 star property.

Room was worn-tables, cabinets etc were very dated, some even chipped and fish worn off. When bath tub was filled, it leaked an inch or more water to the floor. We had to play janitor. We were getting ready for bed so didn’t want to be disturbed by a cleaning crew- we had to deal with a very wet floor all night. Dried mostly by morning.

Resort start was good. It would have been better if they have more indoor activities like pool and table tennis. Ensure you don’t book this place during the Monsoon season. Even though the place was flooded, the hotel was ready to cancel my booking. Resort food was not that great and all the restaurants outside were closed because of flood. Check in process was easy and the room service was also excellent. Check out didn’t go well as we had to carry all our baggages ourselves as nobody turned up even after making a phone call. May be a unique case for us..overall the stay was just average.

Staff are not friendly at all . We had difficulty contacting Zuri Kumarakom for reconfirming the reservation since their online phone number is wrong . We booked the hotel for one night and there was a mismatch on the dates we booked. Even with plenty of vacant rooms due to off season and raining , they were unwilling to accommodate us . When we decided to leave after 2 hours of waiting in their lounge, they offered a room and we declined it. They overcharge for their food and rooms. You get a better hotel accommodation in US with all convenience compared to their room rate and other expenses. I was planning to go back next year with my family but I decided against it due to our bad experience with staff members at Zuri Kumarakom and also due to their overpriced rate. I do not recommend this hotel at all. .

the staff were continually attentive and keen to deliver the highest standard of care reception and resturant staff were brilliant. The spa offered a tremendous range of treatments
The resort was very well kept and the lagoon view bungalows were excellent. We thought the addition of private outside showers was great. The bathroom was very large and wellequipped

This was our 3rd visit to Kerala but our 1st stay at the Zuri. We chose it over the Kumarakom Lake Resort as it was slightly cheaper and we wanted to go somewhere new. We were not disappointed. Stayed in a cottage which was large and very clean with an outdoor shower area. The cottages back onto the internal lake, whereas the suites have a plunge pool and overlook Lake Vemnabad itself. It is a beautiful setting and very relaxing. The food was excellent, although there are few healthy options other than fruit. All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful; in fact the service was some of the best we have experienced anyway included much more expensive luxury resorts. The spa, swimming pool and gym are clean and of a high standard. We booked a week of treatments and were very satisfied with our experience. All in all, this is an excellent resort which we can thoroughly recommend. We will certainly stay there again in future.
