    There’s crazy traffic on the roads - no rules, no traffic lights (maybe just one!), yet no crashes, no accidents, and no pedestrians getting run over! 🤪 There are lots good fish restaurants, but sanitation is still questionable.

    Compared to Varkala I found it easy.

    Compared to Varkala I found it easy. It’s well geared-up for Europeans and the shopping is great. However, it’s a small place so ten days was far too long for me to be there. On the whole it is cheaper than Varkala and although dangerous for swimming, it is manageable, unlike Varkala where I was unable to actually swim for five days

    2 or 3 days is enough for a short break in the beach area as its quite small.Nice restaurants and shops,beach and sea clear.Sun loungers and parasols cheap for the day .Street sellers can be pushy and too many but they just trying to get business.

    Good place to visit but stay in the hotels on the main road. Enjoy sea food in the restaurants on the beach. The beach needs clean up of rubbish. The best place to eat was Lonely Planet and Jeevan restaurant for beer and food.

    Kovalam is a nice beach.

    Kovalam is a nice beach. I had visited this place almost 40 yrs back as a kid but this time was a difference experience altogether. It is great if you are able to hire a car here and then move around. The experience from lighthouse on the lighthouse beach is something unique. The beach itself is nice and clean and you do get beds at INR 100 where you can rest and put your clothes while you take a small dip in the sea. In case you are looking for vegetarian food, the options are less but not non-existent. Overall a very nice stay.

    I went because I’d been before and there was a day of striking. So home was allowed out. So I quickly booked soma palmshore so I could spend the day in the hotel, in the gardens or by/in the pool. I love just floating in that pool looking up at the circling birds and letting life stop. I also had 2 wonderful Ayurvedic treatments and the restaurant is really accommodating for someone who can’t take too hot.

    I really appreciated how nice was Shida, the host. Always with a welcomy smile, she will help you with anything you ask. I stayed 4 days in Kovalam and I really enjoyed this beatiuful side of Kerala thanks, in part, tor Shida. Had a good rest at night and tested great home-made food cooked by her. If ever come back I will know where to go.

    Just stayed here for one night before flying of to Sri Lanka. Would definitely come for longer next time - this area and the hotel holiday home are worth much more than just a stopover. Helpful staff, clean rooms, perfect location and much more. Highly recommended.
