    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

    2 or 3 days is enough for a short break in the beach area as its quite small.Nice restaurants and shops,beach and sea clear.Sun loungers and parasols cheap for the day .Street sellers can be pushy and too many but they just trying to get business.

    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.

    It was my second time at this hotel and I felt like at home. The owner Shida is always very welcoming and caring. The hotel is clean, cozy and safe. From balcony we see a beautiful view of the sea. The beach is nearby, along the coastline there are restaurants with fish and seafood and vegetarian cuisine, many different shops. Thanks a lot to Shida for her hospitality. I plan to come again and recommend this hotel to my friends for staying in Kovalam!

    Centrally located, 3 star hotel with friendly staff, super clean, spacious rooms and a comfy bed. - On the path from the hotel to the street, you will see a clothes shop. It's the last shop. Tina from Karnataka is the owner. She sells cool clothes and souvenirs. Definitely check it out!
