The property was well maintained and clean and it's very near to the North cliff. The host was very much concerned about our stay and was very friendly. He even allowed us for the early checkin. They even have small hangout place in terrace where you can chill with your friends.

I had a great experience at this homestay. For the price, it was well above expectations. The rooms were hygienic, the linens were clean, and the staff was courteous and helpful throughout the stay. One of the highlights was the terrace space, which is perfect for small group gatherings or casual get-togethers. Overall, a comfortable and affordable option that offers excellent value for money. Would definitely recommend!

We stayed for 3 nights at Utopia. Ivana and her daughter are absolutely delightful. The house is very clean and decorated with taste. The ambiance is very peaceful overlooking the rice fields (5mm tuk-tuk ride from the cliff) We highly recommend staying at Utopia if you are looking for a peaceful gateway with a beautiful yoga Shala for morning practice.

Hotel in Varkala

Located in Varkala, Tiny Temple offers beachfront accommodation a few steps from Odayam Beach and provides various facilities, such as a fitness centre, a garden and a terrace.

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.

    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.

    The beach was awesome, the water temperature and calmness of the sea making it perfect for swimming. Varkala itself had plenty of options for eating at any budget level and the people were friendly, helpful and generally very honest in their dealings with tourists. The temple was especially interesting for us and was mostly open to non-hindus to walk around its grounds.

    Large beach with fabulous turquoise sea and big waves with some sun beds down one end if wanted . Lovely views and sunsets. Busy lively area ( we were there just after Xmas/ new year ) with many restaurants and shops along the cliff side. No beach hawkers on beach which made a change . Not really suitable for young children or people with mobility issues as big waves and steep steps to beach . We ate at costa del mer which had good European food if you feel like a change from the standard Indian food and was really excellent for breakfast as well as other meals . There are also cheaper good more traditional Indian restaurants just off the main drag . Roof top sky bar great for sundowners overlooking beach .

    Rooms were spacious, spotlessly clean and well air conditioned - bathrooms too. Bed very comfortable and shower brilliant. Nice touches in the room such as water, toiletries and amenities (fridge, safe etc). Pool was great and open slightly beyond sunset, and easy access to Varkala beach and North Cliff via the path (during the day). Breakfast has a lot of options, and the treatments we had in the spa were very relaxing. Staff are pleasant and very helpful and the same day laundry service was very efficient.

    The stay was super comfortable, and the location is absolutely spot on—just a short walk from Varkala Cliff. The caretaker is cheerful and always ready to help, which made things even better. Special thanks to Shafeeq—he was incredibly helpful and guided me well while settling in. An awesome place to stay, whether you're traveling solo or with a group of friends. I strongly recommend it.

It invites to relax and chat and was quite clean, there's filtered water and a kitchen. The folks were very social which was perfect for me as a solo traveler. The dorms have AC and lockers for smaller backpacks.

    This stay is on the North Cliff. The rooms are small. But the walk on the cliff with so many restaurants and shops is amazing. The cliff in Varkala is a paradise. Once you are here everything is different. You are 100 m from ocean and every where you can see the ocean. Truly gods God's paradise.
