Villa Varkala ★★

"Absolutely pathetic place no room service available ,no towels ,no extra mattress available ,no drinking water ,the force you to pay extra or threaten to throw your luggage outside . The were no blankets ,the bathroom lock is broken and they have kept local goons to get guests to pay extra . The owner lives in foreign and has zero manners they don’t know how to provide basic amenities and only know how to loot people . Would rather stay at a railway station than here again ."

Sajjoys Hotels in Varkala

Sajjoys

"What can we say to add to the last review: it is everything mentioned there, and more. I think the word “charm” sums up Sajjoys perfectly from the decor and size of the hotel to the team who helped to make us so welcome and feel at home - the perfect blend of efficiency and friendliness. The food was extremely good, prepared by a chef who certainly knows how to cook Indian and fusion food. The Ayavedic treatment on offer was superb and run by Dr Divya, a doctor of Ayaveda, who most certainly knows how to help solve health issues. Thank you to Pravi and all your wonderful team: so sad to say goodbye, but, hopefully, see you all again."

Varkala Villa Hotels in Varkala

Varkala Villa

"Loved this place! Binu gave a very warm welcome and was very helpful during my stay. Varlala Villa is spotlessly, clean, comfortable, quiet and only a 10 minute walk to the beach. They only have 4 rooms. My room was huge and the bed was very comfortable. There is a kitchen for use with a fridge, kettle, tea, coffee and drinking water. Really enjoyed my stay."

"Stay was very good, staff is good, very couple frdly. Couples can come to this space. Especially good safety for couples. Room was neat and clean. And it's very near to cliff.

"Had a good time there at deshadan on May 2025. The rooms were compact but lacked refrigerators and lockers. The restroom was neat and of adequate size. Complimentary breakfast was nice and decent but no space at peak hour. The staffs were friendly and polite."

Grand Residency & Resort ★★
"The hotel is new and clean. There is no point in posting photos, because all the photos on tripcom are true. All the furniture is new and in excellent condition. Air conditioners, fans - everything works. There is also hot water, you need to wait a little until it drains. There is a refrigerator (new, odorless), an electric kettle, a TV (we did not turn it on, we do not know if it works or not). Soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, shampoo are provided upon check-in. All this in small format. The service in the hotel is no worse than in Europe. They helped with any issue that arose. We have not seen such an attitude towards tourists for a long time. We have been traveling around Asia for 8 years, we have something to compare with. This hotel is the best of those we have been to. It is far from the beaches. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to the nearest beach. But if you take a moped, there should be no problems. The hotel has a parking lot. And 24-hour security. We arrived at the hotel very early, check-in was done without extra charge for early check-in. Breakfast: vegetarian buffet. Our rating for the hotel and its staff is 10 out of 10!"

Villa Varkala ★★
"If you enjoy paying for things that don’t exist—like a bed for a third person—this is the place for you! We booked a room for three, only to find one bed. No problem, they said, “We’ll bring another!” But after dinner, surprise! No bed. After some detective work (aka calling them), they finally delivered… a mattress so thin it could double as a paper napkin. Bonus: it was decorated with a charming layer of black mold! The room also smelt of mold. When we politely pointed out that sleeping on a biohazard wasn’t ideal, things got weird. They insisted someone sleep on it. We insisted we wouldn’t. They got aggressive. We got uncomfortable. They demanded full payment. We demanded an escape route. Spoiler: we lost. Save yourself the trouble—unless you love bad service, disappearing beds, and a side of intimidation."
