    Nada.

    Super close to the cliff, about a 2 min walk from Soul & Surf - where there’s yoga, surf and food. Comfy rooms, we had a side entrance room with AC that was cool during the heat of the day.

    One of the three mosquito nets at the window was a bit broken, but you can just leave that window closed and if you still feel uncomfortable, use the mosquito net above the bed. I didnt have any problems with mosquitos though.

    Simple but clean budget option for anyone looking for a quiet relaxing time in Varkala, whilst still being close to everything. The guesthouse is in a quiet backstreet right behind „Soul & Surf“/South Cliff Taxi Stand. The beach is 5 mins away, if you want to swim, north cliff with many restaurants just north of the beach, and temple junction is also close by if youre looking for supermarkets or more authentic Indian restaurants. South Cliff beach also is less busy for anyone trying to get away from the crows more and also has its own sea-view clifftop restaurants and cafes (Sarwaa, Soul & Surf etc). There are also a handful of Yoga schools in the streets surrounding the Guesthouse. The owners are very friendly and helpful. You can do laundry & have breakfast as well (Indian or Western, both very delicious). On top of that youll be blessed with a very friendly, quiet, and peaceful dog called Tommy :) Can only recommend!

    Binu was very much friendly, accepted and organized our requests and made our stay more comfortable. We requested for breakfast and lunch during our stay and they provided us delicious meals. We took our 9 month old infant with us and it never felt like we were staying in a different place, it just felt like home. Sea shore restaurant is just a minute walk from here, where we enjoyed a relaxing 180° beach view and experienced the soothing sound of waves away from all the public. The place is also very close to the South cliff beach. But, you must have a strong legs if you plan to have a walk to the beach. Overall, the place was beyond our expectations and we thank them for making our stay peaceful. Definitely will recommend other to visit here.

    Binu the owner of the property is one of the best host I met till date. He is way beyond helpful. The property is at perfect place really 2 minutes from beach. Super clean rooms and bathroom. Even you will get kitchen area to make your own tea if needed that was bonus for me. Binu helped to get scotty at cheaper rate and he lend his own bike for few hours to roam around as well. Also, we checked out however he he allowed to use the common bathroom and keep the luggage and called auto driver at night to drop till station. Words are less for Binu. Great man !!
