We were there in April 2013 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay for 2 nights. Run by KTDC and having its own golf course, the history goes back to 1744 of the Dutch Palace. We enjoyed nice view of the Kochi Marina front from our balconies of our Marina villas. Food was good, not excellent though. It has an Ayurveda centre... More

The resort has a wonderful location - it is on an island (duh!) facing the Ernakulam marine drive. It offers a very nice panoramic view stretching across the marine drive all the way to the Cochin shipyard. In the evenings and after dark, the scenery is breath-taking. The swimming pool is really small, and is useful only for taking a... More

Located at a great place and big area. But the hotel seems to be over-hyped. Main attraction found was a swimming pool that is not that great as in Hotel Samudra. Food was good on the expensive side. Rooms were great .

Heavenly location with water on all sides, lovely sunset views and historic buildings. Very poorly maintained. Mold in some rooms although outside could be dangerous for people with breathing problems. Food not bad. Prices very reasonable. Staff good but no initiative since it is government run. On the whole a good deal given the price for such a great location.

To begin with, Bolgatty Island Resort is a good property. The landscaping is good, water front adds to the charm. The restaurant has a good decor and food is delicious too! As every where else in Kerala, staff are courteous and friendly; but thats where the good things end. The rooms are small, house keeping is slow; and the beautiful... More

Good location and gardens. The rooms are spacious but not well maintained. Old TV sets, remote controller was not working properly. Bath room not clean. Bed was okay. Breakfast was just okay and the same menu repeated for 03 days. With that location and facilities they can do much better. Still I appreciate KTDC for doing so much when compared... More
