The host, Mr.Arun was very friendly. He cooperated well & was very helpful. The location is very close to the beach. They also had some activities like quad bike & paint pall games. The property was very neat & clean. Worth for what we pay. Thanks & kudos to the whole team. I would certainly recommend this property to my friends.

I absolutely loved staying at this property — it had such a warm and inviting atmosphere. There was something about the space that just felt calm and relaxing the moment I walked in. It was peaceful, private, and had a really positive energy throughout. The location was ideal — quiet and safe, yet still close to everything I needed. I felt genuinely comfortable and at ease the whole time. It was the kind of place you instantly feel at home in. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a truly pleasant experience.

    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.

    The manager Surya met us on site to ensure we were comfortable in our stay. We stayed at Down Town Holidays Kovalam for a week at Suite 103, truly it was very nice experience. Lots of stores and restaurants around and quick 15 mins walk to the beach and kovalam area. Lovely stay we will be back soon! Highly recommended

    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.
