The place is quite away from the mainland. The cottages are fine but the location of the extra bed in the cottages is not very ergonomic. It becomes quite congested and the and the fan and the AC fail to cool it, so if you are a 3 people group, do consider. The food is good but the room service was a bit slow, mainly because the hotel is spread out and being cut into parts by the backwaters.

The property is good. Landscaped in small islets in Pallana River and its estuaries, the cottages are very picturesque and scenic. They are strewn over these small islets and accessed only by country boats. First you park the car and then cross the small canal by boat to the islet in the middle where the reception and restaurant are housed. Then you are taken to the next islet by boat again. Cottages are twin cottages with separate AC, Geyser and sit-out facing the canal. We didn't have any food there, so I can't comment on the quality of cuisine. These are the positives. Now the negatives. First, the price. We paid almost 4K just for the room. It is over-priced for the amenities provided. I shall list these point by point. 1) The cottages are too small. The sit-out is okay but one can't do yoga or exercises there in the open. Nor can we sit there in the room with friends because there are no chairs there and the lounge chairs (kept in the sit-out) are big and can't be kept indoors because of paucity of space. I have travelled widely in India & abroad and for relaxation you need more space. 2) The bathroom is very poorly conceived. The tiles are mediocre and they were broken too. The shower doesn't give proper stream and way too high to adjust the angle. The toilet seat was very shaky in our cottage. 3) No bed-side lamps. In a resort like this, one spend lot of time to read. The only bright light provided is a tube light; that too not behind the bed. Tube light itself is in bad taste. This is the first time I am seeing tube-lights indoors in a 3 star rated resort. Very bad taste indeed. 4) And plug points too are few. These days of internet, one spends lot of time browsing the internet. So there should be enough plug points and a table with proper chair. These are standard features in any resort. In Coir Village they are highly inadequate. 5) The country boats which shuttle the guests are too big and ride too high in the water and the boat rolls a bit too much for comfort. A low slung flat boat would have given a safer ride. Maybe they chose these boats to carry more guests; but these lumberous boats too can carry only 6 or 7 people without risk. A flat wooden boat of some 20' by 4' can carry 6 or 7 people comfortably. 6) There is no means to call the reception from the cottages. You have to depend on your mobile phone and the range is not all that great in these remote places. To get the Wi-Fi connectivity, I had to dig up a number from the Coir Village web-site and I got connected with somebody in Alleppey and he had to call the girl in the reception to attend to it. Very inconvenient indeed. Especially with the 3 star price-tag. They should provide intercom and there should be a person to attend to such things 24/7.
