Delicious Meals

During my stay at Tharavadu, I found the dining experience to be very enriching. I ordered breakfast and despite the initial hiccups in service, the omelette, toast, jam, and coffee I had were all delicious. I particularly enjoyed taking in the views while dining beside the canal, which added to the experience immensely.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at the guest house. While the rooms were spacious, clean, and nicely decorated, I was shocked by the disparity in room rates compared to what my friend paid for a similar room. The staff were helpful, but communication could have been clearer. The location is good for exploring Kumarkom, but dining options were limited and would require planning ahead. Overall, it’s decent for a budget traveler but came with some frustrations.

Staying at Tharavadu Heritage Home was a delightful experience, especially with its charming cottage-style rooms surrounded by lush greenery. The tranquil mornings and beautiful temple views from the property were great, but the early morning noise from the temple might disturb light sleepers. While the service was decent, I found the Wi-Fi a bit lacking as it was only available in the reception area. Overall, it offers a unique heritage experience, though it might not suit everyone due to the noise and connectivity issues.

I had a lovely stay at this heritage home, nestled right alongside the river. The architecture and atmosphere of the property were absolutely stunning and made for a memorable experience. However, the service could have been more efficient, as we had a long wait for dinner. Overall, it's a great value for money, with clean and comfortable rooms, but don't expect a five-star service.
