Surrounded by the scenic Lake Vembanad, Kumarakom is a holidayer's paradise. And nestled in the mangrove woods surrounding the lake is Waterscapes. Come, wake up to the chirrup of the Kumarakom bird sanctuary. And when night falls, retire to your cosy, thatched cottages rising on stilts, eight feet above the ground, accessible only by a narrow pathway or rowboat. Nestled in the mangrove woods upon the Vembanadu Lake, Waterscapes is a cluster of cosy, thatched cottages built on stilts 21/2 meters above the ground.
