Kerala cottage

Hotel in Varkala

Boasting a garden and views of sea, Kerala cottage is set in Varkala, a few steps from Odayam Beach.

After active travelling I was looking for some relaxation time. And for that i found the perfect place. It's a bit off the main touristic area of Varkala and that's definitely nice. Really close to small calm beaches. And in 10 mins you can walk to the north cliff with many other restaurants and Ayurveda/Yoga-Places. Cottage super clean with good AC, very comfy bed, warm shower. Staff extremely nice, relaxed nad friendly atmosphere with everyone. Will come back one day.

"We had a wonderful stay at Cliff Vista by Saash Hotels, Varkala. The hospitality was warm and welcoming, and the rooms were very comfortable and well-maintained. Ample parking is available on the property, which is a big plus. The beach is just about 1 km away, easily accessible by bike or a short drive. The location is peaceful, perfect for couples, families, or groups who want a calm and independent space. Highly recommend!"

We stayed for 3 nights at Utopia. Ivana and her daughter are absolutely delightful. The house is very clean and decorated with taste. The ambiance is very peaceful overlooking the rice fields (5mm tuk-tuk ride from the cliff) We highly recommend staying at Utopia if you are looking for a peaceful gateway with a beautiful yoga Shala for morning practice.

Tiny Temple

Hotel in Varkala

Located in Varkala, Tiny Temple offers beachfront accommodation a few steps from Odayam Beach and provides various facilities, such as a fitness centre, a garden and a terrace.

Deblekha
From

Tiny Temple is a rare gem set back from a quiet section of 'the strip' close to Black Beach. Swati, the host, couldn't be sweeter. He was really helpful and made us feel completely at home. The location and view from the rooftop/deck is unbeatable and the price was totally reasonable (we were there just before 'high' season). New Wifi is being installed which will be the cherry on top! Another perk was the fine folks at Elina's Clifftop Restraunt (next door) who were really accommodating and even offered room/rooftop service. My daughter and I took a risk on a spot without reviews and in this case we're so glad we did. Can't recommend it highly enough.

    Very nice coast, it’s possible to walk for kilometres along the coast. It’s quite turistic but mainly locals so it doesn’t bother too much. It’s possible to get into the sea only in very few places but I wouldn’t recommend it. The town has lots of markets, bakeries and restaurants. There are several yoga studios along the coast.

    It is a beautiful place with plenty of beaches, greenery, small town shops, water sports and the most beautiful mangroves. There are also nice places like the Jatayu Park and the Shri Narayana Guru Samadhi and ancient temples that are a treat to visit.

    Beautiful views worth seeing.

    Beautiful views worth seeing. However most visitors are rowdy which affects the comfort of people seeking a more down to earth experience. Restaurants often out price locals and cater to Western tastes; they seek a specific type of well put together, middle or upper class traveller. Monsoon season is likely a more relaxing time to be here with less rowdy visitors from out of town/state. Little cleanup efforts for the beaches. Bad sanitation and waste control. Waste burning unfortunately normalised.

    The beach was awesome, the water temperature and calmness of the sea making it perfect for swimming. Varkala itself had plenty of options for eating at any budget level and the people were friendly, helpful and generally very honest in their dealings with tourists. The temple was especially interesting for us and was mostly open to non-hindus to walk around its grounds.

    Large beach with fabulous turquoise sea and big waves with some sun beds down one end if wanted . Lovely views and sunsets. Busy lively area ( we were there just after Xmas/ new year ) with many restaurants and shops along the cliff side. No beach hawkers on beach which made a change . Not really suitable for young children or people with mobility issues as big waves and steep steps to beach . We ate at costa del mer which had good European food if you feel like a change from the standard Indian food and was really excellent for breakfast as well as other meals . There are also cheaper good more traditional Indian restaurants just off the main drag . Roof top sky bar great for sundowners overlooking beach .

    A great place to stay for a few days in Varkala. South beach location is quite but easy to get to the North cliff by walking (20-25mins) or tuk tuk. The accomodation was clean, the staff friendly and amenities what you need for a short stay. Ac was extra which I knew and was happy to pay - it worked well.
