Thattukada, Traditional Tea Shop
A traditional teashop recreated at Kumarakom Lake Resort in its original, rustic splendour. The boiling vessel that constantly spews aromatic steam, the cluster of garden fresh bananas that hang by coir ropes, the open frying pan, the aroma of freshly fried local snacks, the easy camaraderie.
Open every evening, the Thattukada is an inviting place to soak in the resort's ambience. To start a conversation, sip a cup of tea, keep hunger at bay, exchange pleasantries, and relish a bit of Kerala you'll cherish for a long time to come.

Kumarakom
None less than National Geographic Traveler has claimed Kerala as one of the must-see paradises of the world.
For administrative reasons, Kerala is divided into fourteen districts, each boasting its own unique bouquet of tourism products. Kumarakom, and Kumarakom Lake Resort, are in the district of Kottayam.
Kumarakom, an enchanting village set on the banks of the Vembanad Lake is wrapped in a quaint charm all its own. With soothing backwaters, thick mangrove forests, green paddy fields and ripe coconut groves as its accessories.
A mere short boat ride away is the world famous Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary, home to the Cormorants, Egrets, Darters, Herons, Teals, etc. and migratory birds like the Siberian Storks.
Access to Kumarakom is just as easy, being only 72 kilometres away from the Cochin International Airport.
