Tiny Temple is a rare gem set back from a quiet section of 'the strip' close to Black Beach. Swati, the host, couldn't be sweeter. He was really helpful and made us feel completely at home. The location and view from the rooftop/deck is unbeatable and the price was totally reasonable (we were there just before 'high' season). New Wifi is being installed which will be the cherry on top! Another perk was the fine folks at Elina's Clifftop Restraunt (next door) who were really accommodating and even offered room/rooftop service. My daughter and I took a risk on a spot without reviews and in this case we're so glad we did. Can't recommend it highly enough.

I've travelled in India (and Varkala) several times and this has been by far the best accommodation I've been to. We've stayed here for six nights. The room is very big and clean. It all seems to be pretty new. More than enough lights and sockets (fully functioning), closet, chairs, mirrors, big bed.. Everything comfy and feels like a small home. The bathroom as well, (seems to be very new!), good lights in the bathroom, mirror, ventilation, also a window and strong shower (what's often hard to find). Honestly, there's nothing we could complain about. The staff it's been super welcoming, nice and helpful. They organised for us the transport to Trivandrums airport, and also helped us with some transport tikets we needed to book. Not even 5 minutes walking to the beach, and it's same price or probably cheaper than many others around that have much smaller rooms and look pretty old! Still can't believe it. By the way, zero moskitos in the rooms! (don't know how, but not even one). Overall, a great experience. It's such a clean and neat place, a total gem! If we are back in Varkala, we'll definately stay here again :) Congratulations for such a great place and thank you so much!

Due to the long weekend, north cliff and north-side beaches were hopelessly crowded. But the south cliff was really peaceful and soothing to walk around and the beaches were cleaner. Kayaking at the Mangroves is a must, some of the prettiest scenery in the area.

What I liked most was the view from my balcony looking out to the sea. A room without a view would not be so agreeable. The grounds were beautiful with lovely tropical flowers and plants. There is an agreeable open air area for meals and breakfast. The breakfast was cooked to order. One day I had English breakfast and one day banana pancakes. The employees are helpful and agreeable. The pool area is also nice.

Very nice coast, it’s possible to walk for kilometres along the coast. It’s quite turistic but mainly locals so it doesn’t bother too much. It’s possible to get into the sea only in very few places but I wouldn’t recommend it. The town has lots of markets, bakeries and restaurants. There are several yoga studios along the coast.

It is a beautiful place with plenty of beaches, greenery, small town shops, water sports and the most beautiful mangroves. There are also nice places like the Jatayu Park and the Shri Narayana Guru Samadhi and ancient temples that are a treat to visit.

Beautiful views worth seeing.

Beautiful views worth seeing. However most visitors are rowdy which affects the comfort of people seeking a more down to earth experience. Restaurants often out price locals and cater to Western tastes; they seek a specific type of well put together, middle or upper class traveller. Monsoon season is likely a more relaxing time to be here with less rowdy visitors from out of town/state. Little cleanup efforts for the beaches. Bad sanitation and waste control. Waste burning unfortunately normalised.

Beautiful home on the South Cliff part of Varkala, just minutes from the beach. Ajay is a consummate host, and has created a truly beautiful environment: staff, decor, breakfasts (and other meals). There are not too many hotels that we would definitely want to return to, but this is certainly one of them. Ajay was happy to chat, and was a great conversationalist, talking and listening in equal measure. HIs recommendations (tailors, restaurants, barbers) were all spot on!

The convenience of the location paired with its peaceful ambiance makes it a solid choice for those seeking a relaxed stay in this coastal area.
