Abad Whispering Palms, a relaxing revival destination at Kumarakom

Abad Whispering Palms is a property in Kumarakom that is overlooking the Wembanad Lake. Kumarakom is one of the best destinations in Kerala. This was my second visit to Kumarakom. Full of lush greenery, beautiful skies, serene lake and magnificent properties amidst these hypnotic views, Kumarakom has always mesmerised me. This time our kids were to witness this splendid place.

Abad Whispering Palms was our perfect choice for two nights and three days to stay here in Kumarakom. Our rooms were overlooking the Wembanad Lake.

Though there are multiple categories of rooms. Some are lake facing, some garden and others had private pools. We were keen to have Lake View rooms. There was a garden outside the room. Trees were planted all around. It had a nice walkway to stroll around and enjoy the cool breeze.
