Our stay at Uday backwater Resort was an excellent break from winter. We stayed in a lake view deluxe room on the 2nd floor and the views and sound from the Punnamada lake were splendid! Beyond the relaxing atmosphere of the room, the next best part was the fantastic food and excellent service at the Aambal Restaurant. The menu has a great variety of food choices and the preparation made for superior tasting. The staff was very attentive, professional and friendly. There is biking, boating, and opportunities to learn about aleppy culture . A wonderful mini-vacation!
