A hospitable hostess, she always helped in any matter with goodwill and suggested the best solutions. The balcony offers a magnificent view of the ocean. The beach without waves (near Hotel Lilla) is a 10-minute walk away.

I was very happy with my recent stay at this hotel and felt it was excellent value for my money. The hotel is very close to the beach with good onsite parking.The room with beautiful and spacious balcony was spotlessly clean and cozy . The bed was very comfortable with good quality linens that made for restful nights. The bathroom was very clean with good quality toiletries. The staff especially Baby went above and beyond, ensuring I had everything I needed and always greeting me with a warm smile. I look forward to staying here again on my next visit.

A great place to rest up for a few days.

A great place to rest up for a few days. Great restaurants along Light House Beach and fabulous shopping opportunities for gem jewellery, clothes and textiles, many are tucked away down the side alleys. Delicious food at Crab Club! Ali's Restaurant and Curry Leaf round the bay are both great places away from the hustle of the main stretch.

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.

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 is comparatively cheaper adjacent to Kovalam beach. Entrance is narrow and back side of the Kovalam beach but at the same time beach is very close to this cottage. Manager and one staff are good and they arranged to carry luggage at their own cost.

The best part of the hostel is its location—less than a one-minute walk to Kovalam Beach. The bed is decent and the cleanliness is good as well. The shower in the female dorm is also nice. The hostel provides drinking water and breakfast, too.

The entrance to the hotel looks very inviting but nothing else about this hotel is anything to be proud or celebrated. It’s definitely not 5 star it’s more a 3 star hotel priced at a 5 star hotel.
