"Absolutely phenomenal property. There is a lot to do from fishing and kayaking to pottery and cultural programs. The staff too was exceptional. I regret not getting staff members names as they were very thoughtful and helpful. Highly recommend spending a few days at this resort."

"A beautiful property that is 160 years old staffed by lovely people. Everyone was helpful - especially with local attractions and booking boat tours. Breakfast was good.
The pool is good but could use a clean and currently there are no loungers - due to be replaced soon. The owners are building a restaurant on site which will be a great addition."

"Hotellet har en relativt stor pool som ligger centralt i hotellområdet. Från poolen har man vacker utsikt över sjön. Rummen är av standard-karaktär, men de är rena och har luftkonditionering. Badrummet var något slitet. Personalen är mycket trevlig och hjälpsam. Det finns inget att göra utanför hotellområdet och inga promenadområden. Maten är fantastiskt god och mycket prisvärd!"

"it was good .. a good refresher .. Room service did a remarkable job for setting the room for my parents wedding anniversary.

The complimentary boat ride was a good experience."

"What a wonderful place, very beautiful and relaxing.
Accommodation absolutely top notch, staff even better.
Having stayed in several highly rated 5 star hotels during our month long tour of India we felt this to be the best.
If you're looking for the backwater experience in true comfort and style then this gives you that.
We hired a day boat which picked us up from the bottom of the garden.
We spent the evenings watching the boats go by and the chinese fishing nets being used. Realy all one...

"It's a good for honeymoon couples. There's nothing for sightseeing. I don't know why it's so famous.
There are no shops or restaurants nearby.
One has to dine in resort's restaurant only. Food is good"

"This hotel is a gem. The rooms are clean, well appointed and spacious with fabulous furnishings. We ate at the restaurant which offered a range of delicious dishes and spent time around the pool. The staff are a delight, always smiling and eager to cater for every guest.
The only comment i would make is that there is not much in the area, but if you're looking for a deserted beach or if you have transport, then this really isn't a problem."

"The experience was not at all resort like. It felt like a basic hotel and the service was average. The food took forever and tasted not good at all, wonder why it took 45+ minutes to prepare. The staff was extremely nice but the property in general was below average. There was not much to do at the resort and the spa didn’t have much options either. "

"We are from London on a family trip and had visited Kochi and Munnar so we were at the end of our trip to Kerala where we wanted to relax and enjoy the weather for a few days.
We were glad we chose this resort as we really did relax, and have a lovely break so for us, it is probably the best resort in Alleppey!
The resort is located in Beautiful lush green surroundings, very peaceful and serene that is very pretty. The staff all work hard to look after it from the ground staff and cleaners, to room service and management.
Adarsh, Saidul, Matthew made us feel special, spoke good English and understood our requirements, feedback and gave great customer service.
It was our 25th anniversary and they gave us balloons and decorated the room, as well as a freshly made cake which we all really enjoyed and appreciated.
The food is excellent!! We didn’t go anywhere else as it was so comfortable, everyday there was plenty of choices.
Dipankar, Manoj, Saidul and the Chefs are excellent and passionate about their restaurant, they gave us great service throughout. Aditi and Marcy are also doing very well.
The activity room is excellent, with good options for all ages, especially the Table tennis / pool table.
The room service staff including Akshay and Shalini are thorough and very friendly too.
Overall we had an amazing stay because the location, food, staff were very good so it was one of our best family holidays abroad.
Thanks to all the staff at Sterling Lake!
