Luxury villas with private pools, surrounded by Vaikom's calm backwaters and greenery.
Discover MoreBrigade Group is bringing an all-villa luxury resort to the quiet island town of Vaikom, right on the edge of the Vembanad backwaters in Kottayam district. This is one of the most ambitious hospitality-led developments Brigade has planned in Kerala, and it comes with a marquee partner: the property is set to be operated as The Ritz-Carlton Vaikom Island, Kerala, marking the first Ritz-Carlton address in the state. Slated to welcome guests and residents in FY 2029, The Ritz-Carlton Vaikom Island, Kerala will bring the brand's timeless elegance, forward-thinking design and authentic transformative experiences to Kerala, blending exclusivity with refined elegance, with plans to feature a 70-key all-villa retreat, this property will offer refined accommodations, each with a private pool.
Every villa is designed to sit close to water, with the wider layout built around calm, greenery and a genuine sense of getting away from the everyday. The resort will have a strong focus on wellness and will also be ideal for weddings and leisure getaways with the option of full resort buyouts. Families, retirees and holiday-home buyers looking for a slower pace of life will find this appeals in a way ordinary apartment living cannot.
This island resort is part of a much larger Kerala push by Brigade. Brigade is looking to expand its footprint in Kerala with a residential project in Kochi and a luxury island resort at Vaikom, with these projects expected to be completed by 2030. With the proposed development of a Luxury Island resort and Residential project, Brigade plans to bring in approximately Rs 1,500 crores investment to the state in the coming years.
As an early-stage, pre-launch development, exact villa pricing, unit sizes and inventory are yet to be released. The price of luxury villas at Brigade Vaikom is expected to offer excellent value, though the starting price is currently on request, with buyers able to expect attractive early-bird offers and flexible payment plans once pricing is officially shared. Buyers who register interest now are typically first in line for early pricing and villa selection.
Brigade's Vaikom island resort will offer an all-villa format, each unit designed with a private pool; final configurations, sizes and prices will be released closer to launch.

|---|---|---|---|
| Private Pool Villa | To be announced | Price on Request | Prelaunch |

Vaikom is a quiet backwater town in Kottayam district, known for the ancient Vaikom Mahadeva Temple and its stretch of the Vembanad Lake, Kerala's largest lake. The resort's island setting keeps it insulated from town traffic while remaining close enough to Kerala's key travel corridors. The location offers excellent connectivity via road, rail, and air, with the project close to major highways like NH 66, Vaikom Road Railway Station, and Cochin International Airport. For travellers coming from further afield, the property will be accessible via a picturesque 120-minute drive from Kochi Airport, making it a genuine escape rather than a suburban extension of the city. Nearby, the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary and the wider Vembanad backwater belt add to the area's appeal for nature lovers, while Vaikom town itself covers everyday needs like markets, schools and healthcare within a short drive.
