Silver Sands Residency — Hotel in Kerala

We first came across this place 5 years back. It's easy to access, and has good parking facilities available. We only stopped for lunch, but that left a good impression. At that time, we ordered rice and meals, and the spread was delicious with fish curry, beef fry, etc.||||We recently revisited the restaurant, after 5 long years. We were surprised that rice meals were no longer available, as they were "not feasible". So instead, we ordered a-la carte. The Kerala porotto was excellent, the prawns masala was very good, the beef fry was also superb. It's truly a delight to find that the taste has not changed, and has in fact slightly improved. The service is also very good. We conveyed our appreciation and left satisfied.||||The ambience itself is quite good. Opt for the sofas in the corner, instead of the small chairs.

A villa with wonderful views of the Vembanad Lake and the Pathiramannal island. We rented the whole villa for a very reasonable price and enjoyed our stay thoroughly since we had the whole place to ourselves.

With a pool and a few swings the kids are kept entertained as well. ||We hired a houseboat which picked us up from the property. The review of the houseboat will be covered separately. The backwaters are beautiful! ||We also travelled by Govt boat from Muhamma to Kumarakom which took 45 mins but was an experience in itself (pic at the Muhamma jetty included here). All in all a wonderfully located property.||Pathiramannal island is also worth a visit on a day trip from a jetty that’s about 250 Mtrs...

Friendly greeting upon arrival, reception area (Wi-Fi area) looks very clean and well kept. ||They showed us the room (standard room with AC on the backside of the hotel with a views on the jungle) and explained the amenities as well as the layout of the room. After the introduction we were asked if everything was to our liking and if we needed anything else for now.||The beds were clean and comfortable and the AC-system was in good condition. Shower was comfortable and a mini fridge with complimentary water tea and coffee was present.||I'm the morning we were contacted by the reception and asked around what time we wanted breakfast and that they would send it to our room. It came 30minutes early and it was very fresh.||So far we would recommend this residency to other travellers as it's price/quality comparison...
