TROPICAL ROMANCE - KUMARAKOM
Kumarakom Tropical Venice Kerala Backwaters Houseboat Coconut Grove India Acme Voyages
A tropical alternative to Venice? Scented with frangipani and jasmine? Think Kumarakom. This beautiful little hideaway on the canals of the Kerala backwaters, with Lake Vembanad stretching before it, is sheer delight. You can opt to stay on a Kettuvellam, a traditional house-boat and enjoy the charms of coconut groves, local villages, fishing communities and more as you cruise down the waters, or simply stay put in a gorgeous resort overlooking the water. CGH Earth's Coconut Grove has an earthy vibe, casual yet chic. Authentic Kerala cuisine and Ayurvedic spa treatments add to the experience. Take a quiet stroll through the gorgeous gardens, enjoy a couple massage, take a boat ride on the water, a bird walk through the bird sanctuary, or simply enjoy the sunset with one another. Balmy weather, sunshine and a gentle breeze will put you right in the mood for romance.
