The Hostel Stories, Varkala - Helipad Road

Varkala

The Hostel Stories, Varkala - Helipad Road in Varkala provides adults-only accommodation with a garden, a shared lounge and a terrace.

The Hostel Stories in Varkala is an incredibly friendly place to stay if you're visiting Varkala. I’ve been there for three weeks, and from the very first day, I felt at home—even though it was my first time in India! The hostel has a beautiful garden with hammocks, chairs, and fruit trees, always filled with good vibes and friendly people to chat with. The atmosphere is both calm and welcoming, making it easy to connect with other travelers while also having space to relax on your own. If you're traveling solo, I promise you won’t feel lonely! There’s also a lovely terrace where you can practice yoga early in the morning, hang your clothes to dry, or simply lie back and watch the stars at night. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the hostel is just a short walk from the South Cliff, where you’ll find the amazong ocean, cafés, restaurants, and all the shops you might need. A huge thank you to Pintu and all the staff at the hostel—you made my stay unforgettable!

The experience in this hostel was completely different. Although I only stayed one night, the hosts made sure to make my stay as pleasant as possible. The rooms are spacious, clean and equipped with air conditioning, the hostel is pure magic, it has an impressive garden and the architecture of the mansion is special. Tranquility is guaranteed for those who seek this, but also for community meetings, in the evening guests cooking together, playing different games and exchanging opinions among the bananas and the masala tree. The hosts are kind, friendly and always ready to help you.

We will remember our 2 days at Marari Beach Bungalow for a long time! The welcome was fantastic, we were pampered by an extremely caring and professional team! The food prepared to order, the breakfast, the pool service, we feel welcomed like prestigious guests! The house is tastefully decorated, very clean, every little detail counts and gives a feeling of accomplished work sometimes rare to find in India. The tropical garden is very well maintained, it forms a lush setting around a very beautiful swimming pool! Bravo to the whole team!

Its very conveniently located - few steps from the beach. And you feel like at home. Hosts are very nice - and really helpful - treating you as part of family - helped me organize my bus ticket, and made me a local dessert that I couldn’t find in any restaurant, and we spent evening chatting on a terrace. Really like home away from home - thank you ♥️

Nice, very clean and cozy room with ac and fan. Kitchenette with filtered water and fridge. The best of all is the host, Lakshmi. She helped me a lot in planning my trip, getting a driver, advising restaurants, she really cares a lot. And does a yummy breakfast.

We absolutely loved our stay at Ether. It beat all our expectations! The terrace overlooking the beach was my favourite spot - you can chill there for hours doing nothing! 😃 The room was spacious and neat. The pool was clean and well maintained too. The property is right on the beach, so definitely loved the beach accessibility. Sony and Anisha are excellent hosts and they ensured we had a great experience - thank you! 10/10 would visit again!

Very friendly staff feel.you very welcome. Always prepared to help. The owners of the place extremely friendly and helping in what needed. The complex just right on the beach providing umbrellas and beach seat. The pool is of good size and very clean and a fresh welcome on a very hot day. Provide local or western style complimentary breakfast and local restaurant just a short walk from hotel. It was a so good and relaxing weekend that we plan another stay this coming weeeknd.

Lovely owners. They were so helpful and made us wonderful breakfasts. I will remember forever those pancakes they made on our last day. It was very comfortable and great to be right on the very private beach and watch the fishermen and the sunrise and sunset. A pleasant 10 minute walk will bring you to the main road and public transport to Alleppey in one direction and Marari beach in the other direction. The wifi was also great. This is one of the best homestays in Kerala

The property is right on the beach sands. You can be in the water under a minutes time. It's close to the commercial activities but is at the end of the lane so still calm and private away from tourist. We could park our car at the end of the lane. There was a restaurant next door where we stopped by for some evening juice. The family made us breakfast as per our food requirements. Had a comfortable stay. Having AC during the month of March was a big plus.

We loved our stay at Kerala Cottage. The location is perfect, you step out the cottage and you’re 10 steps from a beautiful beach, and stunningly warm ocean. It was great being just far enough from Varkala cliff to have serenity but also east access to all the restaurants and facilities. The major upside was the lack of others on the beach and not having to climb a cliff after a swim. All the staff and management couldn’t help us too much, it was a great stay with great breakfasts!
