This place is good! The rooms are very big so there are also armchairs inside to sit. You get towels and there is warm water (which you don't need because it's so warm around here). We had a balcony with views to the palm trees. The owner, Bijoy, is so nice and he will go the extra mile to help you. A chat with him is also very pleasant and he can give you advice if you need for local things to do. A big plus point: no stray dogs in the inner garden...;).

    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.

    Brilliant place to stay in Kovalam. Probably the best hotel due to the facilities and excellent location for walking into lighthouse beach restaurants, shops etc. Staff, food, rooms, cleanliness, swimming pool, totally great. We didn’t do the Ayurveda treatments but did do a yoga class. The Ayurveda appeared to be excellent but can’t vouch for this personally.

    The location of the resort, near a beach is a big plus. It's only 15-20 mins away from the main Lighthouse beach of Kovalam. The Ala carte and buffet options for lunch and dinner are very good. They had many options for recreation and relaxation like pottery, nice and big swimming pool, a games room (although the pool table was not in a working condition).
