Nestled in a quiet corner near the Kappil-Edava beach you will find a restive spot, a place that calls discerning travellers to rest a while and reflect on life’s blessings. A place to live like the clock was never invented, paused at a time somewhere between sunrise and sunset. The place to be when you dream of a simple life and long for vistas of still waters, long houseboat rides, home cooked meals and a walk on the beach.
Now what would you call such a magical place? Well we call it - The Serene Lake Resort.
A seven-kilometre drive from Varkala town, this eco-friendly resort situated on the famous Kappil Beach is a delightful place. Kappil stands out for its magical seascape of lake, land and sea, with the water taking on the colours of both the blue-grey Kerala sky as well as the emerald-green of the islets of the Nadayara Lake Estuary. Kappil retains its fishing village charm with country boats pulled up on the beach and palm-roofed huts, outside of which fishing nets are hung to dry; ever surrounded by countless coconut trees, swaying to the cool sea breeze. This is a unique place, where both the sea and the backwaters coexist in harmony.
You may enjoy endless sunsets, make a lifetime commitment, renew your vows, or unwind and enjoy a meal. Whatever you have in mind, we welcome you to experience it here at THE SERENE LAKE RESORT.
Spread over close to an acre of land, the family-owned Serene Lake Resort models Kerala’s village life. The resort facilities and location come together to make an enjoyable, quiet and restorative holiday that tantalizes the senses with new sights, tastes and experiences. In an age of fast cars and technology, The Serene Lake Resort promises a glimpse of what might have been alongside what is.

Kappil is a pristine village with beautiful beaches and backwater lagoons just waiting to be explored. It is in close proximity to Varkala, a popular destination for all the surfers, beach-lovers and culture explorers of the planet. The beaches in and around Kappil and Edava are not overcrowded, thereby ensuring a degree of privacy. For those tired of the beach, use small un-mechanised boats to row leisurely across the lake.
