    The room itself was cozy and clean but could use de-molding given the humid weather it is in. Another minor drawback is that it is not accessible in cars. But scooters and autorickshaws can reach the gate.

    Loved the place, as it is outside from the crowded downtown Varkala. Morning and evening swims at the nearby beach (3min walk) were so nice and relaxing. 20min walk to the downtown cliffs became a good meditative habit. :) you can order food in the small café. Very kind manager who will take care of your needs.

    The room was categorised as a beach view room but there isn't a direct view of the beach. You'll need a binocular for that. They should update that information as it sets wrong expectations. Bedsheets were not cotton and were uncomfortable as it kept sliding off the mattress. There is no exhaust in the washroom and it gets stuffy after use. They should also place air freshener in the washrooms.

    The rooms were clean. It's close to the beach (around 100m) but no direct beach view.

    We faced issues with electricity and water the first day, but the issues were resolved only the next day by shifting us to another room. Recommend staying here if you seek a calm and serene stay, away from the crowd.

    The mattresses were not very comfortable.

    The hostel is located in a beautiful serene landscape, right next to a rice field and close to the beach. It is less touristic there and not so crowded. It takes around 30 minutes to walk to the cliff where all the restaurants and cafes are so It depends on your personal preference. I liked the nice chill out area in a garden and the hammocks.

    One downside was the lack of crowd, which didn't quite fulfill the social atmosphere I was expecting from a hostel experience.

    The location is peaceful, away from the cliff, which makes it a great spot for relaxation. The place is nice, comfortable, and offers easy access to the beach. The nearby farm adds a charming touch to the overall ambiance.

    Nothing as such apart from little maintenance in bathroom. Kitchen has limited menu, I find it little expensive but the manager hv promised me that prices are in consideration.

    The Location! Surrounded by paddy field and coconut grooves… walkable to calmer beach portion. Each dorm is quite precious with en-suite bathroom and changing room plus balcony. Very airy and bright with natural light. Sai as a manager very cool and prompt.

    Food was not available, but I was able to adjust. Just Maggie and Chai was there when food was available.

    The stay is comfortable for a solo traveller. The service provided by nithin was good enough. He even helped set up barbecue which was awesome 👌

    It’s located quite far from main Varkala cliff so be aware you’ll need some tuk tuks. However, it’s next to a nice beach and a few beach cafes so if you want it more quiet then it’s a good place. WiFi didn’t work most of the time

    Beautiful rooms, nice bathroom (no hot water tho), welcoming staff, cute common space

    The cafe is not that active. Don’t know if it was because of less guests.

    I like the landscape of the whole property, with full of calmness around. I also liked the hospitality though out my stay.
