The wonderful experience with ayurvedic retreat and very calmful atmosphere with a good service and the keralite style guest relation near the capital city of the state and the international beach. You can easly reach the airport and the bus station from here and also the shopping centers. More

First, there are 2 Somatheeram resorts side by side but with different management as Nora has pointed out. This could be quite confusing, and the one I'm reviewing is the one without the pool (but had access to the one next door), and that has the orange sun logo. I stayed for 7 days in December and had the Ayurvedic... More

This resort is providing very authenticate ayurvedic treatments, those who wants to feel ayurveda, and close beach definitely you will enjoy somatheeram.

This place is mostly for ayurvedic treatments, which the staff also pointed out at arrival. We came there just for relaxing a couple of days without treatments, and my review is written from that perspective Warm welcoming and briefing. Our accomodation was okay - bathroom somewhat simple. Mosquitonet and "smoke treatment" could however not keep away from our bed :-(... More

Somatheeram: one name for two different Resorts. The differences are more important than the similarities. They both are situated on a hill overlooking the ocean. They share the pool and stairs leading to the sea, these two equipments are on the field of the neighboring Somatheeram Ayurvedic Resort (with a logo with a big S). Here I’ll talk about the... More

We stayed two days in Somatheeram Beach Resort at the end of November and have mixed feelings about it. The room (garden cottage) was very small and the bathroom was very plain. The front office people are really nice but the rest of the staff not so much. At the restaurant we nearly found them rude which was chocking given... More

I stayed 18 days in Somatheeram. The treatment is good but accomodation is really heterogenous, and globally bad for the price paid (no privacy, palm rats, noise : planes at night every hour, very loud..etc.). The staff althought very well intentionned makes permanent blunders which ends up to make your stay not so "relaxing". We were several people from Germany,... More

First of all we like to thank the guest who took time to write a review. Nice to know that guest enjoyed the location. It seems there were lot of misunderstandings by the guest. Regarding hot water, all our rooms are equipped with an independent/ dedicated water heater. Hot water is available throughout the day. This can be operated by... More
