Owner Sajeev and caretaker Vijayan looked after us really well during our stay. The location is fantastic - it's outside Varkala which is great if you are looking for somewhere away from the tourist crowds but bear the beach. There was a quiet beach nearby which we had almost to ourselves at times. Swimming in the sea as the sun went down was one of the highlights of our trip to India. The room was a good size with air con and a fan. Breakfast was served outside on the terrace. There is also a washing machine for guests which was really helpful for us as we are backpacking. We were lucky enough to have visited during a Hindu festival and saw plenty of free entertainment at the temple next door. Varkala is only a short tuktuk ride away and has all sorts of different restaurants and shops. Thanks for a memorable stay!

Wonderful guesthouse near the cliff in Varkala - only 5 minutes away from the cliff but nevertheless it is a very quiet place. The rooms are spacious and super clean, they beds are cosy, the bathrooms are spacious too and well-equipped and every room has a kettle, tea and coffee sachets and 2 bottles of filtered water. Every room also has a nice terrace or balcony facing the lovely garden of the property. There is a laundry service and the host is a super nice woman, who helps with everything you need or could wish for. I had an absolute wonderful time there and can't wait to be back! Thank you Mango Villa!
