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!

Property itsefl is very beautiful, very close to the beach. Rooms are nice and well equipped. There is very nice kitchen equipped in everything is needed (with washing machine) and living room. On the second floor you will find an amazing terrace with big table and hammocks. Breakfast is served everyday on the terrace, which are by the way delicious. Best thing of staying here is the greates host I ve ever met. Saajev is very kind, helpful and funny guy who can help you with anything you need, he can arrange the scooters and show you the neighbourhood. honestly we spent 4 nights here and had the best in India. I do really recommend to stay here, we will come back for sure.

I absolutely loved this property. It's beautiful and so thoughtfully maintained. You can clearly see the effort that goes into every detail, all curated with great taste. The hospitality here is just as impressive: the staff are warm and attentive, and the breakfast is exceptional with generous, scrumptious portions. A big thanks to Sid and his mom for creating such a wonderful place to stay in Varkala. I can't wait to visit again!

This hostel is perfect. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and come with a fan. There’s also a rooftop where you can do yoga or just hang out and have a good time with friends. It’s a quiet, relaxing place and very well located close to Varkala Beach and Black Sand Beach, one of the calmest beaches in the area. From here, you can walk north along the entire coastline, which is a really beautiful experience. I totally recommend it.

I came for a day and ended up staying for 4, the peaceful vibe of this hostel kept me wanting to extend, perfect place to take meetings and have a workation. The wifi was great! I had no problems with the network. Location is so convenient, away from the crowded area yet walkable to the cliff. I had a great time there. Their balcony has a great view, greenery all around, perfect spot to take work calls from without anyone distrubing. They also have a common kitchen so tea breaks were very convenient.

We loved the idealism and the caring ethos of Jambavan with its emphasis on the environment, art and welcoming guests. The room and shared facilities were all spotless, cool and comfortable. There is a large roof terrace where you're surrounded by the tree canopy and a balcony off the living room which is shady and breezy. The hosts Avneeth and Anvena are incredibly kind and friendly and speak perfect English. We enjoyed making friends with their family of cats 🐈‍⬛ It was fun having art materials in our room to encourage some sketching.

Excellent location, quiet yet 2 minutes walk to the cliff cafés, shops and restaurants. Very clean rooms with large comfy bed and spotless linen. The outside balcony to the room is a nice place to relax. The staff are friendly and the manager Suresh can make any arrangement you might need.
