Seclude by the Lake, Alleppey

The place is really beautiful and the ambience is more than a peace of mind. We came for a group trip for 2 days , all the room were very clean and the attending persons were also very good. Overall I highly recommend this place for any kind of relaxation trip.

Located in a village location in the Alleppey district, not far from Cherthalla, this place offers service similar to serviced apartments with a common dining area, balcony, etc.. Directly facing the Vembanad lake with Kumarakom and Pathiramanal isle on the opposite bank. Tortuous village roads lead to the property. Service is excellent but costly. No restaurant but the staff makes almost all types of food, fresh.

Seclude is located in a tranquil setting overlooking lake Vembanad. The rooms were very comfortable, very clean and very well equipped. We stayed here last year, and decided to come again as we had such a fabulous time. This year they have added a decent sized swimming pool which gives a welcome respite from the heat, and which has just made our stay even better. Sajit, the chef who clearly enjoys every aspect of his job, produces the most amazing tasty food, checking with us before each meal with suggestions and making food more/less spicy as required for each person. He is ably assisted by Mohan Kumar, who discreetly covered all other needs. Aneesh, the Manager, has fluent English, and was open to discuss any requirements, during or before our visit. He was exceptionally helpful at organising anything we needed including organising a driver to take us to nearby towns for some shopping. He also personally walked us to introduce us to one of the local temple festivals, which we wouldn't have known about, giving us a wonderfully immersive experience of the local culture. There are a lot of opportunities in the area, markets, boat trips, the beach, which are not always obvious from the Kerala tourist information; Aneesh will help organise. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this accommodation as very good value for money, and a great place to unwind. There is so much to enjoy in this area. We will come back here again, and we will stay at Seclude by the Lake.
