Elle travel news coverage - Spa treat

Nestled along the banks of lake Vembanad in God's Own Country is The Zuri Kumarakom , Kerala Resort & Spa. The localtion is idyllic beautifully landscaped property with scenic views situated beside the calm waters of the lake and a man made lagoon within the property- It is picture perfect. You can choose to unwind in one of the many luxurious cottages overlooking the lagoon. if you are really looking to pamper yourself , then choose the presidential pool villas, which comes accompanied by a personal guardian and a swimming pool. If you wish you can also stay in the resort houseboat. The friendly and well trained staff does not hesitate in pampering you. The resort is home to the maya Spa, one of the biggest in south India, where the resort's promise to rejuvenate you is delivered. Elle recommends the green coffee body wrap. The slimming and the toning wrap reduces cellulite build-up and eliminates water retention. the 100% pure micronised green coffee stimulates the body's ability to break down fat. Their is also a cigar lounge and a couple of bars where you can relax at the end of the day, aside from multicuisine restaurants.

Mr. Nakul Anand - Chief ITC Group of Hotels

Dear Aditya,

Thank you ever so much for the lovely stay. Many hotels have a great ambience but very few demonstrate the quality of service that you and your team displayed. The food & service, upkeep of rooms and above all attention to detail in every aspect was a hallmark of your service. Service with a smile was the icing on the cake.

Do convey my compliments to your team and should you happen to visit Delhi or any ITC Welcomgroup hotel, do allow me the oppurtunity to reciprocate your hospitality.

Best Regards,
Nakul Anand
