Following a hectic tour through Kerala we spent 6 nights at the Samudra to unwind before jetting back to the UK. The grounds are lovely with an array of hammocks and a nice pool. The 20 minute walk to Lighthouse beach isn't too far and there is plenty of local restaurants near by for lunch. We can't comment on the... More

Fantastic location with all rooms overlooking the beach. We chose the ground floor room - these provide easy access to the pool and beach as the back door open straight in the lawn. From there its a short walk down to the beach. The room are spacious and adequately furnished. The beach though not private for the guests is partially... More

Well maintained lawns and swimming pool. Excellent sea view. Room is also nice. Food need to be improved. Very limited choice of roti items for buffet. The kids enjoyed a lot. The staff is friendly and helpful

Had a very pleasant stay..good location, well maintained, food was Ok, but rest of all was just perfect! highly recommended. We saw many resorts in Kovalam, but we finalized this one as we found this to be value for money.
