Mornings at the backwaters of Alleppey are pure poetry. The sun rises slowly, painting the waters in shades of gold and amber, while birds glide gracefully above. A lone canoe drifts past, guided by a fisherman whose song blends with the gentle ripple of the water. At Palmgrove Lake Resort, one of the finest luxury backwater resorts in Alleppey, each moment is designed to immerse you in this serene beauty, making every stay unforgettable.


Feel like you've truly escaped. Book with us and we'll pick you up free. Simple as that.


Rooms That Feel Like Home (But Better)


Walk into your cottage and you'll notice something immediately: it feels right. Traditional Kerala architecture gives you that authentic vibe—wood beams overhead, terracotta underfoot, breezes flowing through. But we didn't stop there. Sink into your bed—it's cloud-soft. Crank the AC—it actually works. Step into the bathroom—hot water flows strong. Check your phone—WiFi connects instantly.


What fits you?


Traveling as a couple? Standard cottages give you everything you need without the price tag.


Want better views? Deluxe cottages face the water directly and offer more space.


Bringing the family? Family suites mean everyone gets room to breathe.


Celebrating something big? Premium villas deliver privacy and luxury in equal measure.


Whatever you pick, you get that balcony. That view. That moment when you realize this is exactly where you're supposed to be.


Food Worth Talking About


Here's the thing about food at Palmgrove: it's good. Really good. Not "good for resort food" or "good considering." Just genuinely delicious.


Why? Because our chefs don't cut corners. Fish comes fresh from the backwaters each morning. Vegetables arrive from nearby organic farms. Spices get ground right here. Recipes follow traditions that grandmothers perfected decades ago.


Try the Karimeen Pollichathu. That's pearl spot fish wrapped in banana leaf with spices that'll make you want seconds. The prawn curry hits different when the prawns were swimming yesterday. And that appam with stew? Fluffy, light, absolutely perfect for lazy breakfasts.


Not into spicy food? Say the word. Our chefs adjust everything to match your taste. Vegetarian? Vegan? Allergies? We handle it all without making you feel difficult. Good food should make everyone happy.


What'll You Do All Day?


Houseboat Dreams


You can't come to Alleppey without riding a houseboat. These beautiful wooden boats take you through canals you didn't know existed. Two hours gives you the highlights. Four hours includes lunch on board. Full day? That's for when you want to really lose track of time.


You'll see villages. Kids playing. Women washing clothes. Farmers working tiny island fields. Birds everywhere. It's not a show—it's just life happening while you float past.


Quiet Morning Canoes


Wake up early once. Try a canoe ride at sunrise. The mist sits on the water like a blanket. Everything's quiet. Just you, the paddle, and Kerala waking up around you. Photographers love this. So do people who just need peace.


Village Walks


Want to see real Kerala? Walk through the nearby village with our guide. Watch toddy tappers climb palm trees like it's nothing. See how coir gets made by hand. Visit the local temple. Meet people who've lived here their whole lives. It's genuine, interesting, and gives you stories nobody else back home will have.


Other Good Stuff

Jump in the pool when it gets hot. Try morning yoga by the water. Spot birds—there are dozens of species here. Watch traditional dance performances. Learn to cook Kerala food. Bike through villages. Or just hang in a hammock with a book. Your vacation, your rules.
