Pros:Very nice location( last of the resorts on the North cliff). Good view of the sea from the room. Rooms are good and bathroom is neat. Cons: Food is the only problem. If you have a vehicle, you can drive around for food. No phone in the rooms and service is poor. But, the pros far outweigh the cons. Go... More

Good nice calm location. Airy cozy clean room. Bathroom little small but manageable. In Off season, Restaurant serves only breakfast Toast and Omelette (not much choice though), for food you ll have to go to nearby restaurants. Service is average and located at one end of beach road so you have to walk a lot to reach Papasanam beach but... More

Woodhouse is at the north end of the Varkala tourist strip. Rooms are large and clean, great food is served either upstairs in a little restaurant or below the resort overlooking the sea. Food is good value. If you are wanting to swim at the beach it is a bit of a walk to the Varkala beach or to Black... More

First of all, Ashok Lama is an incredible guy. He's the guy you see carrying luggage, cleaning rooms, making sure you're happy, keeping the restaurant staff on task, really running the show. The manager is very nice. I saw him once, but saw Ashok every day all day. The location is great. It's at the end of a row of... More

On a spur of the moment, we took train from Kochi to Varkala without a place to stay. We checked out various places on the Thiruvambadi Beach. We were really pushing our luck in trying to find an available place right before NYE. We based on realtime search on the following factors - quality of rooms; close proximity to beach,... More
