This 4-star backwater Resort near Trivandrum, a property managed by Thomas Hotels & Resorts, is a great option for both a day/weekend package, as well as extended stay for Conferences & Company Retreats. An hour's drive out of Trivandrum, it has an interesting short Boat-ride through the backwater to the Reception area, but is also now directly approachable by car.... More

Our overall experience at Estuary Island was very good. The only reason why I had to give them a 4 star is because of the room availability.We were on honeymoon and completely got agonized with the fact of hotel being over packed which doesn't make any sense if your room was booked months ahead of time. So after spending a... More
