Coconut Lagoon

Coconut Lagoon

Water and history are the defining elements at Coconut Lagoon, in Kumarakom, on Lake Vembanad, one of the largest inland lakes in India. Here, on its shores, cottages have been reconstructed by skilled craftsmen who have masterfully assembled sections of ancient "tharavads", the family homes of Kerala's nobility. This architectural marvel exudes the charm of the Kerala life of yore, transporting one back in time to a world of peace and contentment. The lodge can be reached by boat and offers a vacation in full contact with nature, thanks to the pristine forest populated by many species of birds and the Vechur cows grazing undisturbed on endless lawns of the property.
