The Zuri Kumarakom

Visited for a weekend with my family We had a very relaxing stay Lovely property so green well maintained We got a opportunity to do fishing in their pond Only improvement I could feel over all was food served in their coffee shop Over all a very pleasant stay Will definitely visit again.

One of the beautiful hotel in kochi, this please is just amazing, beautiful lake and the pool attached to the room, excellent service by staff, the only drawback was the food, please improve the quality.

The resort is very beautiful and one of the best resorts in that area. The view of back water is amazing the pool is the best which overlooks the back water .... The pearl spot fish fry is must try and delicious . Breakfast spread is too good and rooms are very clean

We selected the Zuri based on Trip Advisor reviews and we weren't wrong. This is a gorgeous resort with direct access to the Vembanad lake. The views, especially the sunsets were simply amazing. Our room was part of their hotel block. In retrospect the additional charge for a lake facing villa may have been worth it. The room was a bit dated but large and comfortable with a nice bathroom. The staff is amazingly friendly and goes out of their way to help. Do take a speed boat ride. It's expensive but so exhilarating! The grounds are perfectly manicured, immaculately clean and well maintained. The spa is great. I went twice and the experience was fabulous. Maybe stick with ayurvedic treatments, that seem to be their expertise. So why not rate it 5 stars? Only one reason. Their Indian, specifically Kerala food is not up to the mark. Western cuisine is great but one would love to enjoy Kerala specialties here. One more small point. The pool is beautiful. It's an infinity pool with three stone elephants as fountains. Pool side maintenance, cleanliness and upkeep could do with improvement. All in all a great stay.

I am familiar with the monsoon rain in the Western Ghats and deliberately decided to take the monsoon head on. After a long gap a family union was planned in Kerala. We decided to visit the long cherished desire to visit Kumarakom. And we zeroed in "The Zuri" for our stay. The drive from Cochin Airport to Kumarakom for about 3 hours was very smooth. Heavy to torrential rain throughout the drive. Driving through lane and narrow road in Kumarakom I was just wondering how will be our stay. But after stopping at the main entrance gate of Zuri, and confirming that we have our reservation, the door to the dream destination was opened. At the reception we were gently requested to sit in the lounge and entire formalities was done while we were busy with our welcome drink. And I thought the road journey for the day was done but when the lady requested to join her in the battery operated car, we simply followed her. She showed the entire resort during our journey from Reception to our Cottage. The room was huge with king size bathroom and a shower in the courtyard. The balcony had steps connecting the lake. It was wonderful experience staying in the Resort. Restaurant was near reception. We walked in the drizzle and had to virtually dance to cover ourselves under the tree. Food was a true Kerala experience with Appam and Kerala Parotha with sambhar full of drumsticks. So yummy. Boating, Cycling were some of the activities undertaken. It was a memorable moments spent with family. A great time worth spending in "The Zuri".
