Poor stay but could have been so much better.
Our room was basic: bed; ceiling fan; bathroom. The cleanliness of the room was poor: mould on the bathroom tiles and some on bedroom walls. The 'included' breakfast was meagre by the standards we have so far experienced in our 8 week trip to India: 3 pieces of toast; 1 egg omelette; tea/coffee. It was served with varying degrees of efficiency: sometimes the omelette was cold; or the toast was cold. The staff were pleasant. The pity is that all the factors which were poor could easily be rectified i.e clean the room properly and repainted it; have some organisation at breakfast. I think if these things were to happen our scoring for the property would have been significantly higher, and it might have justified the price of the room!

Nothing nice to say about this place!
Thankfully we only booked one night here. We checked in, and whilst completing the paper work the guy on the desk sprayed our room with goodness knows what. I think it was some sort of deodoriser to mask the dank, musty smell of our room. We went to our room and dumped our bags and went for dinner, a feeling of dread consumed me over dinner knowing we had to spend the night there. It was a sleepless night due to the wet, yes wet not just damp mattress. The smell of mould and mildew was appalling. As there is no screens on the windows there is no way to ventilate the room without being massacred by mosquitoes. As soon as the sun came up we almost ran from this awful, awful place. I really have nothing good to say about this ' resort' not even the staff can save them as they all seemed abit sleazy. There are many other nice places in Varkala for a fraction of the cost. Avoid Kshetra!

Try and avoid suggesting this hotel to any one. The very basic amenities like TV, normal drinking water, mosquito repellent were not available. There are much better hotels available within the same price range giving much better services. This hotel is definitely not worth the grading that you have given it.

RJ, Kerala

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
There is no ventillation provided in the rooms. In non a/c rooms if u close all the windows there is just no visible air entry provisions provided in the rooms ie no ventilators nor air holes. There is only 1 tubelight in standard rooms, no night lamps ie no other bulbs. The water is hard. There are neighbouring houses very close to one side of the resort that sort off infringes on ones privacy though the residents there dont peep or bother to look into the resort. The way to the resort is full of potholes and muddy bumpy ride, they would do well if it is repaired. The quality of service is good and the staff are courteous and polite, but if the deficiencies are attended to the stay there would be much better.

The staff were very friendly and helpful and rooms clean but the price does not reflect well. As is the way in India, the bed was rock hard. We had pre-paid for a room with no air-con or hot water, no breakfast. Compared to what is available in the same area for the same price, I would suggest staying elsewhere with better amenities. It's a new hotel with potential but needs to look at the local competition to set their standards and prices.

Siamo arrivati sul retro di questo hotel, stanca del viaggio volevo farmi un tuffo in piscina!!ma non la vedevo come presentata dalle foto?era sul davanti 😅 chiarita la situazione il manager e' stato oltre modo gentilissimo e ci ha offerto uno squisito te time al ristorantino😋 ci siamo poi goduti la splendida spiaggia, un po distantina ma comunque simpatica da raggiungere anche per le numerose vetrine di Kascmiri che fiancheggiano il percorso!!!! Per noi e' stato uno spasso !!! Mezza giornata di distensione dopo un lungo viaggio le camere semplici ma pulite durante la notte silenziosa ci hanno ristorato😉
