Palmgrove Lake Resort is a two star property on Punnamada in Alappuzha, South Kerala, holding a 4.3 out of 5 guest score from 1834 reviews. It lists an outdoor pool, a restaurant and bar, a garden and terrace, and canoeing and fishing on the water. The reason to choose it, or not, is whether a simple, well equipped base at the edge of town suits you better than a houseboat or a central address.
The property itself

Where it sits
The address is Nt Ward Punnamada, in Alappuzha, the headquarters of Alappuzha district, in South Kerala. The property is near the coast and 4.2 km from the centre of Alappuzha. The destination is Alappuzha, the town itself, and the kind of place is water, at 0 to 2 m altitude.
Alappuzha is a water town. The public ferries leave from here, and they beat an overnight houseboat on every measure that matters. Kuttanad farming country starts at the edge of town: the only place in India where rice is grown below sea level. One hour by road from Kochi airport traffic, so it works as a first or last stop.
Who it suits
Palmgrove Lake Resort suits travellers who want a straightforward, well equipped base on the water with a pool, a restaurant and a bar, and who value free parking, air conditioning and a 24 hour front desk. It does not suit anyone expecting a boutique houseboat or a central Alappuzha address, because it sits 4.2 km from the centre and rates two stars.
Planning a stay
August to March reads best on the water. The southwest monsoon is spectacular and wet; the canals are high and the light is short. The property lists canoeing and fishing, a garden, a terrace and a picnic area, so time outdoors is easy to arrange. Car hire and free parking are listed for getting around the district.
