We've had a really nice long stay here. The owner is very welcoming and provides good care for all the guests. The receptionist is so helpful and friendly. The building is new and modern together with very clean rooms and furniture. Cleaning service, new towels with bedsheets/linens are provided easily. Customer satisfaction is guaranteed and I definitely can recommend it here! The rooms were designed well so that they get ventilated enough. We never had to worry about moisture or mold at all thanks to that. This is very important in the tropics! We've used a powered mosquito repellent at nights and never had issues with mosquitos when sleeping. The hotel location is very safe and quiet. Solo traveling women stay here comfortably. There are rooms available both with single beds or double beds. The beds were comfortable. Hot water gets heated up so fast that it's always available. The wardrobes are big enough for families. There are ceiling fans available also in the balconies.

I was very happy with my recent stay at this hotel and felt it was excellent value for my money. The hotel is very close to the beach with good onsite parking.The room with beautiful and spacious balcony was spotlessly clean and cozy . The bed was very comfortable with good quality linens that made for restful nights. The bathroom was very clean with good quality toiletries. The staff especially Baby went above and beyond, ensuring I had everything I needed and always greeting me with a warm smile. I look forward to staying here again on my next visit.

    There’s crazy traffic on the roads - no rules, no traffic lights (maybe just one!), yet no crashes, no accidents, and no pedestrians getting run over! 🤪 There are lots good fish restaurants, but sanitation is still questionable.

    Compared to Varkala I found it easy.

    Compared to Varkala I found it easy. It’s well geared-up for Europeans and the shopping is great. However, it’s a small place so ten days was far too long for me to be there. On the whole it is cheaper than Varkala and although dangerous for swimming, it is manageable, unlike Varkala where I was unable to actually swim for five days

    Good place to visit but stay in the hotels on the main road. Enjoy sea food in the restaurants on the beach. The beach needs clean up of rubbish. The best place to eat was Lonely Planet and Jeevan restaurant for beer and food.

    Kovalam is a nice beach.

    Kovalam is a nice beach. I had visited this place almost 40 yrs back as a kid but this time was a difference experience altogether. It is great if you are able to hire a car here and then move around. The experience from lighthouse on the lighthouse beach is something unique. The beach itself is nice and clean and you do get beds at INR 100 where you can rest and put your clothes while you take a small dip in the sea. In case you are looking for vegetarian food, the options are less but not non-existent. Overall a very nice stay.

    The place exceeded our expectations in all ways - be it food or the rooms or the service. The AC room size was huge and the décor was very nice. The Non AC room too was very spacious. The staff was very helpful and made it feel like home. Their food was delicious and at the same time hygienic. Cleanliness was taken care off and the overall vibe of the place was welcoming. Wished we stayed for more days. Beach was within 5 min walking distance. Unlike most Kovalam hotels, you can get an auto/car right outside the hotel.

    This hotel has vast luscious grounds and beautiful architecture and design. The pool area is gorgeous but the lagoon and just walking around is a real treat, full of Keralan beauty. The hotel grounds are huge but there aren’t that many rooms giving a real sense of having something special for yourself. The staff make the stay special and can’t do enough for every guest. The treatments at the spa were divine. And the food, unsurprisingly, was delicious. I loved my stay here.

    Very well maintained property at a good location where you are surrounded by 5star hotels and resorts. The Samurdra beach is just 10mtrs and the waves truly enjoyable, my son totally loved it. The hotel has their own restaurant serving good food and breakfast. Evenings are much pleasant and the rooms are really cozy.
