Kerala cottage

Hotel in Varkala

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

Kerala Cottages are AMAZING! The location, facilities, hospitality are all beautiful. it is true that it takes a bit of effort to reach the property, about an hours' tuk-tuk/taxi ride from TRV airport - but it's definitely worth the effort! It's in a quiet area, away from the hustle of the 'Cliff Walk', which is about 10 minutes away in a tuk-tuk. The cottages are spacious and SO comfy, clean and beautifully constructed, with a fine attention to comfortable details. The bathroom is huge, with very nice fixtures and great water pressure. The bed is super comfy, nice linens, and you have a nice seating area inside as well as on your private front porch, where you can watch the ocean and sunset! The grounds are well-kept and lush, and the ocean is literally a stones-throw away, with a cute smaller beach directly in front, that feels very private. The breakfast is to order, and really delicious. The restaurant serves regular meals that are also very nice! But the absolute best part is the staff and workers there. A young man named Nevin mans the front desk and tends to everyone staying there in the most personal and professional manner. He seems to always be available, and eager to help, or share information...always aware, but never intrusive in the least! For a truly relaxing and rejuvenating experience, Kerala Cottages is the BEST! I was SO sad to leave, and hope to visit again soon! A+++ experience!!

There’s truly nothing not to love about Sajjoys. The hospitality is some of the best I’ve ever experienced—warm, professional, attentive, and heartfelt. The location is absolutely perfect—just a 2-minute walk from the cliff, tucked away on a beautiful, peaceful street. The manager goes above and beyond to accommodate your every need. The beds are insanely comfortable, the entire hotel is spotless, and the atmosphere feels both luxurious and homey. It’s incredibly safe, with reliable security in place. I’ve never felt so well taken care of. WiFi and AC work perfectly, the showers are amazing, rooms are spacious, and the pool is clean and refreshing. On top of that, the food is delicious—breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all exceptional. Sajjoys is a gem—I’ll absolutely be back.

Calaila was such a wonderful surprise. The team here is incredibly welcoming. The location couldn’t be better it’s literally a one minute walk to the Cliff, and all the restaurants like Cafe Italiano and Gods own kitchen are a short walk from the stay. Beautiful rooms, calm atmosphere, and genuinely kind hosts. Would definitely return as the price was really good considering the location

I had an amazing stay at the Creditable Heritage Resort. The location is perfect—very calm and peaceful, and just a short distance from the beach. The atmosphere is incredibly relaxing, making it an ideal getaway. A special mention to the manager, Shayas, who was extremely helpful in planning our sightseeing activities. His hospitality made our stay even more comfortable. Highly recommended!

We were actually planning to book one of the normal hotels in Varkala Cliff area. However, as we had a friend who just underwent a surgery, we decided to take a calm and quiet property and that's how we found Vishram Village. The property is very clean, the food range is limited, but again, of superior quality and delicious. I believe it's a property facing lake spread over 4 acres and they have two private docks. They have facilities for all water games. But, above all, the best they offer is calmness and comfort. Big thanks to the staff and management, we had a wonderful stay there. And for the dog-lovers, you will be warmly received by Naala and Karma... And those who don't like dogs, they will never ever come close to you..!

Due to the long weekend, north cliff and north-side beaches were hopelessly crowded. But the south cliff was really peaceful and soothing to walk around and the beaches were cleaner. Kayaking at the Mangroves is a must, some of the prettiest scenery in the area.

What I liked most was the view from my balcony looking out to the sea. A room without a view would not be so agreeable. The grounds were beautiful with lovely tropical flowers and plants. There is an agreeable open air area for meals and breakfast. The breakfast was cooked to order. One day I had English breakfast and one day banana pancakes. The employees are helpful and agreeable. The pool area is also nice.

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.

Lovely atmosphere where you feel immediately at home. Many nice activities to meet new people like dinners together, yoga classes, games. The managers are very welcoming and helpful. The female dorm has AC and it’s very clean. The location is perfect, 5 mins from the main beach and the north cliff where you have plenty of bars and restaurants. I loved my stay here and I can’t wait to come back. I totally recommend it to any backpacker passing by Varkala looking for meaningful connections.

If you’re in Varkala, Baba Luru’s is truly the place to be. A clean and comfortable environment, surrounded by greenery and close to North Cliff. Keegan, the guy who runs it, is absolutely amazing. And the dogs who live here are nothing but lovable. Only good vibes in this place. If I ever come back to Varkala, I’d have zero doubts about where to stay.
