An absolute slice of paradise! Booked through Memmsta Hotels, we stayed in a spacious private pool villa featuring a gorgeous outdoor shower and bathtub. The hospitality was exceptional, with staff being consistently courteous and helpful, and the dining was equally wonderful. To top it off, their spa and authentic Ayurvedic massage left us completely rejuvenated. A truly magical backwater getaway! Highly recommended.

We stayed at the resort for the last two days with two families, and overall, we had a pleasant and enjoyable experience. The ambience of the resort was very good, with a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable, and the overall surroundings were well maintained. Regarding the food, the experience was average on the first day, but it improved considerably on the second day. The food was delicious, and the buffet was also very good with a nice variety of dishes. The staff were courteous, friendly, and helpful, and their service was good throughout our stay. However, the room service could be improved further, particularly in terms of promptness and efficiency. One area of concern is the absence of a bar facility. We understand that this may be due to certain restrictions or policies, but for guests who prefer such a facility, the resort could consider taking suitable steps to provide an option through an authorised external arrangement, wherever legally permissible. Overall, it was a nice experience, and we enjoyed our stay. With some improvements in room service and additional guest facilities, the resort could provide an even better experience in the future. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. We look forward to visiting again.
Our stay at Niraamaya Retreats, Kumarakom was truly memorable, and there were several aspects that exceeded our expectations. The first thing that leaves a lasting impression is the landscaping. Every corner of the property is beautifully maintained, lush, peaceful, and thoughtfully designed. It blends seamlessly with the backwaters, making the entire resort feel incredibly serene. Hospitality deserves special appreciation. Every member of the team was warm, courteous, and genuinely eager to make our stay comfortable. Their service was consistently excellent throughout our visit. We stayed in the Ashokam Villa, and without a doubt, it offered some of the most breathtaking views we’ve ever experienced. The endless lake views, the private lap pool, beautifully maintained gardens, sunrise and sunset viewpoints—these are truly the highlights of the property. Even after checking out, we’re still not over those views. The wellness experience is exactly what the resort promises. A perfect 10/10. The spa was undoubtedly the highlight of our stay—professional, relaxing, and one of the best wellness experiences we’ve had. For anyone looking to disconnect and focus on wellness, the yoga sessions and wellness retreat programmes are definitely worth experiencing. There are a couple of areas where the resort could become even better. The food quality was good, but the menu felt quite limited. A wider variety of cuisines and more dining options would significantly enhance the guest experience, especially for longer stays. Similarly, the on-property activities could be expanded. During our stay, the available activities were mainly fish feeding and goose feeding. Introducing more engaging recreational or cultural experiences would make the stay even more enjoyable. Overall, Niraamaya Retreats Kumarakom is an exceptional destination for anyone seeking peace, wellness, stunning landscapes, and unforgettable backwater views. If your idea of a holiday is slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and indulging in a world-class spa experience, this property delivers beautifully. With a broader food selection and a few more activities, it would be very close to perfect.
Great resort to enjoy peace and silence. Morning yoga and afternoon meditation are top class! Very well prepared and wxplained. Room with lake view and private pool is great space, it is in the same building as two other appartments, so slightly dependant on what neighbors you get (small kids might be noisy). Very enjoyable restaurant with Chef preparing bery good quality dishes, also making special requests possible. We have received also ‘Bon Voyage’ cake at the end which was very nice. SPA treatment is exceptional, very much recommended.
We stayed here for 2 nights and 3 days and had a wonderful experience overall. The rooms were beautiful with a stunning view. We stayed in the private pool villa, which was absolutely lovely and very spacious. The villa had a bathtub, separate toilet and shower areas, and even an outdoor shower connected to the bathroom, which was so convenient to use after a dip in the pool. The staff were extremely courteous, friendly, and always helpful throughout our stay. The only downside was the food. It did not feel like 5-star quality and was closer to a 3-star standard. The breakfast buffet was also not very extensive. However, they were happy to prepare items on request, which we appreciated. Overall, it was a pleasant and comfortable stay, especially because of the beautiful villa and warm hospitality.
