I’m so happy I found this spot! As a solo female traveller, I felt completely safe and well looked after. The place is clean, friendly, and just a short walk to the beach. The breakfast was delicious every morning, and the management was always helpful and kind. Excellent value for money and truly good people here—I highly recommend it!

    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. 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.

    This resort is so beautiful it blows your mind! But, I wouldn't expect any less from a Taj property 😊 There's so much green all around the hotel, with the beautiful lagoon and the private beach, you hardly feel the need to step out... simply walking in the gardens or spending the day reading is a perfect holiday plan to unwind and recharge your batteries. The staff is extremely polite, efficient and friendly. The food gets a 10/10 too. All meals of the day include local specialties along with popular regulars. Superb.

    The hotel is small, very close to the beach, but quiet. Green courtyard, our rooms looked out onto a small garden, very nice. The owner extended our room until 15.00 without any problems, free of charge, which was very nice. Recommend this place in Kovalam.
