At the guest house, units are fitted with bed linen and towels. Well situated half between the beach and the city center, Johnson homestay is a great family house with a nice garden. The rooms are clean and well furnished. Johnson is very welcoming and very committed to his guests. I particularly appreciated his advices for the ferries in the backwaters and I had a memorable experience. Even if I didn’t have the time to do his tour on village canoe cruise, the guests who did it were really satisfied. Wonderful stay !

Featuring pool with a view and views of sea, Magnolia Guesthouse Varkala is a recently renovated guest house located in Varkala, 300 metres from Odayam Beach. Set on the beachfront, this property features a garden, a bar and a shared lounge. The guest house provides a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. Great location just away from the main action in Varkala. Very peaceful. The main reasons to stay here are the staff and the food, both of which are exceptional. We were looked after when we changed our booking and then due to flight delays arrived at 1am. Devan provided excellent service and nothing was too much trouble for them. Hom Raj also looked after us for meals and drinks. We didn’t eat much from then European menu but the Keralan dishes (fish in banana leaf, malabari fish and prawn masala) were excellent. My partner cooks a lot of various regional Indian food and didn’t feel like going anywhere else. The rooms are basic in their facilities but very good value. Would happily stay again.

Featuring garden views, Mango Villa Guesthouse Varkala - A Garden Home offers accommodation with terrace, around 400 metres from Varkala Beach. Guests staying at this guest house have access to a balcony. Every room includes a patio. I had an amazing stay at Mango Villa in Varkala. The location was perfect for access to the attractions yet had its privacy of quiet atmosphere. The host Mini knows quite well about the place and she has amazing recommendations for restaurants, things to do etc. Although it was a short stay, they made it perfect! Would definitely recommend at least a couple nights to a week stay for a much relaxed vacation
