Location is perfect just at the junction point to go either to the most beautiful beach of Kovalam or to the other 2 beaches more in the center. This place is run a by a lovely family and the son Aromal is taking good care of you. Very friendly and polite and a nice guy to have conversations with. The mother prepared the most amazing breakfast in South India. Location is clean and cosy, with a nice outside area to hang around. Good WIFI as well so also a perfect place for people who want to work remotely.

Everything about this place was great. The breakfasts were the best food in 3 weeks traveling India. If only they served dinner. The pool was always a refreshing end to the day. Vishnu and the cooks always had a smile, ready to help in any way. The rooms were comfortable and spacious. 10 minute walk to Lighthouse Beach.

Communication both before and during stay was so easy and prompt. Tushar organised driver to pick me up from the airport and he was there to greet me at the home even though it was well after midnight. My room was clean and comfortable with a table and chair and private bathroom and AC and fan. There was a communal fridge and kitchen with cooking facilities. There was also a lounge with a very comfortable lounger and a lovely covered outdoor area also. The yoga sessions were great and even more special were the incredible healing sound bowls. The facilities were cleaned regularly. Tushar even helped organise my onward travel and he was always there to help when asked. I would 100 percent recommend this homestay as it felt like a home away from home. Thank you Tushar and family for making my stay so comfortable and memorable

We loved everything. This homestay is a real gem. The family who owns it is so helpful and kind. Asok booked all our trains for us on our Kerala trip and printed me copies. Even though breakfast wasn't part of our booking, we got a delicious home cooked breakfast each morning. Our room was very spacious and clean. The homestay is located on a quiet lane, away from the hectic streets of Trivandrum, yet close enough to walk to Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple and to restaurants etc. (we recommend trying Agrahaara Vegetarian restaurant 5 min away, even though we aren't Vegetarian the food was delicious and a very low price). I highly recommend staying at this homestay, you won't find a better choice in Trivandrum!!! Thank you!
