Kerala cottage

Hotel in Varkala

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

Our stay at Kerala Cottage was an absolute delight! This is closest that I have gotten to stay near a beach with the sea being just a few steps away. You can hear the sound of the waves inside the room. Far from the hustle bustle of town, this place is serene. Great destination for a dopamine detox. Great hospitality from the owner and staff - always ready to help and make our stay comfortable - with a smile! You won't regret the stay. Note: Seasonal beach. Best time being November - March

Amazing Chef with a great buffet breakfast with many western and Indian options. Staff was as good as in a 5 star hotel. Very clean with a nice pool and a fridge in the room. Walking distance to the main beach, Cliff Road AND the beer and wine parlor to buy takeaway. Loved it so much we extended our stay twice.!

What an amazing stay it was! 1. View and Location - This is located in the quietest part of oddayyam beach. private access to the beach, day and night. The view you get in the morning just outside your room will be surreal!! Surroundings are completely quiet. This is right next to maadthil homestay. 2. Value for money - Not overvalued. Worth every penny you pay. Superb surroundings, room service, wifi access, smarttv options, room amenities provided. 3. Lovely, Sweet and Welcoming host - Abhilash is very amazing person. Hospitality was good. Provided us with all information, contacts for vehicles, transfer, kayaking, mangroves etc. Also provided space for our luggage when we had a late checkout scenario. 4. Rooms - Hygienic and clean rooms. Bed spread, pillows, washrooms are all well maintained. Hope they keep the same level of hygiene consistent. 5. Peaceful vibes - If you stay here your mind will be refreshed. That is what i can say!!! completely peaceful vibe! Overall an amazing stay. definitely recommended for friends, family and couple who are on a vacation in varkala.

Tiny Temple is a rare gem set back from a quiet section of 'the strip' close to Black Beach. Swati, the host, couldn't be sweeter. He was really helpful and made us feel completely at home. The location and view from the rooftop/deck is unbeatable and the price was totally reasonable (we were there just before 'high' season). New Wifi is being installed which will be the cherry on top! Another perk was the fine folks at Elina's Clifftop Restraunt (next door) who were really accommodating and even offered room/rooftop service. My daughter and I took a risk on a spot without reviews and in this case we're so glad we did. Can't recommend it highly enough.

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.

Location of the hotel is good. It is close to the Varkala cliff and beach. There is no direct access access to the beach from the hotel. For old property, hotel is maintained pretty well. Staff were nice to accept our request on rooms change to lower floor. Outside the hotel we could find auto-rickshaw so did not have to rent out a vehicle
