The hotel has an excellent view of the vembanad lake. And a well maintained pool as well. How ever there are only a limited set of activities and may get bored in a day or two. Food is a little expensive. Approach to this hotel is via backwater and is good.

Date of stay: February 2017

We visited Cocobay on 18th 19th Feb 17.
Its location is just perfect for a relaxing vacation..
Food menu is limited but good..
Staff is gud expect the aunty at the reception. I found her bit arrogant..

Rooms are good with a touch of an olden era.However found 2 unwanted guest with us as well in the room (Lizard's) so be careful dont keep any food items open near the table.

They arrange Shikara boat at the hotel which is gud @Rs 1600 for 1.5 hrs. Which gives u a glimpse of Kumarkom village..also u hav various other options for exploring backwaters..

Stayed at Cocobay only for 1 night.

To reach the resort you are taken by a small Shikara from the front desk/car parking area.

Pros -
Sunset !!! Amazing view of the sunset @ Vembanad lake.
Antique structure exterior and interior of rooms

Cons
The rooms are not super clean as expected @ a resort.
Food is ok
Service is very slow, looks like there are only a few people for service
The shack sitting area is not up to the mark
Crows .. a lot of them trouble you while you are outdoors eating.

The resort has amazing location and structure, they have to invest more in polishing the property and maintaining it.

Needs more staff for service and Food quality needs a lot of improvement.

This place is located on the banks Vembanad lake in Kumarakom. To reach the place , you ride through a small canal on the boat. The location is so beautiful that you fall in love with the place at first glance only. Its quiet and serene. Not a very big property but still it has its own charm. The rooms are constructed in a typical kerala style architecture. Food is also great at this place which is served in a shack type of a restaurant. For house boat stay also,these people only make arrangements. And also they arrange special Shikara ride. One can see the beautiful sunset from the resort itself. Overall this place is among the best options to stay in Kumarakom.

While this resort boasts of it being the only property right on the water with the best view of the sunset there is no doubt it is true. right from the little boat ride that takes you to the resort up the fantastic location its set on Cocobay gives you that perfect feel of a reort by the backwaters.

The only downside is that the rooms are dark and have been furnished with heavy furnitre that makes it seem smaller than it is. The bathrooms need some maintenance (especially the shoer curtains). When you sit on the veranda the breeze is spectacular and the pool is just enough (though stricter rules of swimwear need to be enforced)

Food is terrible in the breakfast buffet and some drastic change needs to be made. Room service is good though so some balance needs to be struck.
