Kumarakom Heritage

About Kumarakom Heritage

The reception is an old Muslim home belonging to one Hassan Rawther. A planter he is said to have had about 40 thousand acres of Tea Estate. It was in his property the Mahatma Gandhi University operated when it was incepted. In order to offer our clients the most stupendous of experiences, we have uprooted the house and re-created the same here right at Kumarakom Heritage Resort and made it our reception. We used the woods, nails, and every other material from the old home and built the same house here so that our patrons can experience what we call the most authentic Muslim residential setting. As you enter the reception, you will be surprised to see the nuances of designs and architectural intricacies that have been recreated.

What we did with our reception area, we have done the same for the Nalukettu as well. We have toiled hard to identify a typical Hindu Nair-family’s house, which was a Nalukettu. The owner of the house was an Astrologer. We again uprooted the Nalukettu and without losing any of its old-time charm, beauty and the rustic value, we raised it right here at the center of our resort. And we call it the same—Nalukettu. Everything in the Nalukettu—from architecture to lighting and ambience—you will find the fine elements of the big old Nalukettu. The Pooja room has two doors and the Nalukettu has 8 rooms in total, well maintained to invoke the feeling of the Hindu rituals. The Nalukettu so uniquely built that it is able to regulate the internal temperature efficiently so that you have the best staying experience.
