Four Lake Facing Sunset View Superior AC Cottages in Kumarakom
Stay together beside Kerala’s largest backwater with four private AC cottages, lake-facing sit-outs, fresh air, sunset views and room for up to 8 guests.
Four cottages, four sit-outs, one uninterrupted lakefront holiday.
Each booking includes four individual Superior Lake Facing AC Cottages, numbered 108, 109, 110 and 111. Every cottage directly faces Vembanad Lake, giving guests a calm private space to wake up, unwind and watch the evening sky change over the water.
- 4 lake facing Superior AC bedrooms of around 175 sq. ft. each
- Total of 8 single cots with accommodation for up to 8 guests
- 4 attached bathrooms and 4 private lake facing sit-outs

What is included?
The Superior Cottage booking includes only the four lake facing bedrooms. Independent rear cottages may exist behind some units and are separate accommodations, divided near the bathroom area by a wooden door.
For maximum comfort, ILLIKKALAM recommends booking additional rooms instead of placing extra guests inside the Superior Cottages.
