Great location, close to the beach but tucked away where it's quiet. They had an assortment of board games, books, and instruments to use during your stay. The hostel had a chill, social vibe. The staff was super kind and helpful. Vikrim even helped me buy a new phone after mine broke. I am incredibly grateful for him. The beds were comfortable too.

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.

Yes Hostel in Varkala isn’t just a place to stay it’s a vibe, a community, and for me, a turning point. As a first time solo traveler, I was unsure about the whole hostel experience. But trusting my instincts and booking four nights here turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From the moment I arrived, I felt a genuine sense of belonging that completely changed my perception of hostel life. Harish, the host, is incredibly welcoming and made me feel at ease right away. Shafeeq, the ever jovial chef, brought laughter and warmth to every moment. Vineesh, the creative soul behind the hostel’s quirky art, added a splash of personality to the space. And Steven, a fellow traveler from Hyderabad, became an unexpected companion whose presence made my stay even more memorable. They helped me plan my daily itinerary and even included me in their evening hangouts walking along the cliffside beach, sharing stories, and playing endless rounds of badminton. And then there’s Angel, their adorable indie dog, who added an extra layer of comfort and companionship to my stay. She’s the kind of furry friend who makes a place feel like home. This experience completely reshaped my perception of hostels. What started as a solo trip ended with me gaining a second family. I’d choose Yes Hostel again in a heartbeat no second thoughts, no regrets. If you're looking for a place that’s not just comfortable but also filled with warmth, laughter, and unforgettable company, this is it. Highly recommended for anyone seeking more than just a stay this is where memories are made. Right in the heart of Varkala❤️ -RK✌️😇

I have no words to describe the vibe of this hostel. I stayed here during the Christmas season and had the best possible experience. I felt very welcome. Clean, spacious rooms and a good common area. Very close to the beach

I just checked out of Haust, Varkala, after an amazing stay. The place was peaceful and quiet, offering a perfect retreat. Wasim, the caretaker, was incredibly helpful, guiding me with bike rentals, the best food spots, and must-visit places. The property was well-maintained and had a fantastic vibe. .

THE Place to stay in Varkala! For all Lovers of the beaches aside the tourist hustle & bustle in main Varkala -Cliff & Coral is your place to choose! It’s just 2mins walk away from the beautiful beach and the hostel is nestled in a garden with many trees which give you nice shade during the hot hours of the day! The Dorms are clean and each one has a private Terrace/ Veranda to hang out as well :) Ani & Nathan who are running the Hostel are very friendly, welcoming everyone with a smile and try everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible! I stayed about a week here meeting many friendly and relaxed people and would always love to come back when I’m in Kerala! Thank you!

Staff - Very accommodating, friendly, and polite (especially Abhi). Cleanliness - The rooms and washrooms get cleaned everyday. Location - It's just a short walk to the helipad from the hostel, but the location is away from all the noise and crowd. Activities - They organize group activities on most days for the guests.
