I'm happy I chose this hotel! It's very very clean and cozy, beachfront. Just have in mind that's not a normal beach as we expect. It's just an ocean and sand :) Breakfast is indian, but you have fresh mixed fruit juice and fruits. Also you can have quite good (Indian standarts) coffee. Very close to it you can find a very good ajurvedic center with good massages. I would definetely stay here again.

This was probably our best stay in India. We arrived to a very clean room with AC. The location was perfect for relaxing on the beach (1 min walk). You can borrow a parasol and beach chairs. The area of the beach had basically no tourists, just a little beach restaurant. The town is full of very friendly people, this includes the hosts of the hotel. They were very friendly, flexible and accommodating. The food at the hotel was excellent and fairly priced. (I would also recommend Fisherman’s Cafe - especially their squid fry starter) Overall 11/10, would specifically go to Alleppey to stay here next time I’m in India.

I had a wonderful stay at this place! The location was perfect, close to thiruvalla town , and the neighborhood was quiet and safe. The apartment itself was clean, well-decorated, and equipped with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. Host was very responsive and provided great recommendations for local restaurants and activities. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting this place.

Jibu is an amazing host, he really went above and beyond to show me around and help me out with everything, very kind. I definitely recommend going on the canoe tour he offers to organise, it's a much more authentic experience than going on a houseboat, and much cheaper too. The room is very spacious and clean, and great location close to the centre and the beach. Highly recommend, thank you Jibu!

Super nice! Very cozy and comfortable guesthouse, well-located away from the busy cliff tourist area (but still within walking distance). Our room was spacious, and the bed quality was excellent. The guesthouse is quiet and located just 1 minute away from the beach in a charming garden. Food is available, and laundry service is provided. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely come back if we return to Varkala!

Lovely place in a great location on the north cliff in Varkala, around 5 minute to the beach. Extremely close to all the restaurants/shops along the cliff but set back slightly so it is nice and quiet. Nice room with good fan, hot water and Wi-Fi. Nice little outdoor area outside the room with table and chairs which was shared with another room. Free water refills. Able to pay by card. The host was very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.

Great location, beautiful surrounding atmosphere, great Host(Peter sir). Most friendly and helpful, lovely and great first impression, Everything about the home stay was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with excellent service in where we had breakfast. Food was good and great value for money and service was attentive and efficient. Room itself was well equipped and comfortable. I was very pleased with my stay. I hope to be back for a longer visit in the future. Last but not least Vickey(Pet Dog) itself an attraction.

Great location, in between the beach and the town on a quiet road. Very spacious and comfortable room, with hot shower. The house looks lovely with a nice front patio and large garden. The host is very supportive of any request and need, and can advise on local attractions, where to eat etc.
