Taamara: Serene, secluded piece of paradise on the banks of the Vembanad Lake

On the banks of the Vembanad Lake is 'Taamara' a home stay offering you a very exclusive and private experience with two well-appointed cottages built on the waterfront with picture window bathrooms. Located at Thaneermukkom in Alleppey district, it is an ideal place for you to feast your eyes on the various moods and colours of the backwaters.

The backwaters of Kerala is miles and miles of picturesque lagoons, silvery brooks and snaking waterways flanked on either side by evergreen palms and Vembanad Lake is a stretch of backwater spread over 900 sq kilometres. Here one can spend a typical lazy day, watching the picturesque world of quaint fishing boats, thatched houseboats, Chinese fishing nets and swaying palms.

At your exclusive acre in this wonderful land, two independent air-conditioned waterfront cottages let you soak in the breathtaking view in all its glory. This exotic hideaway offers a home to families, friends and corporate guests who prefer the relaxed ambience of a quiet tropical waterside garden resort. The twin bed cottages are casually elegant with cheerful interiors, an ideal location for your private holiday with your family or friends. You will be treated to some authentic Kerala cuisine cooked specially for you, or if you choose, you can opt to cook your favourite dishes for yourself… for that completely private experience.

While rest and relaxation is top on your menu, you can choose to jaunt down the backwaters…. a lazy excursion on the boat across Vembanad Lake. Where, you could witness local fishermen catching fish and shrimp or, they will plan a romantic 'kettuvallam' (country boats) cruise for you. You could even do some fishing and have the chef cook your catch for supper or relax your body and mind with an ayurvedic rejuvenation massage.
