One of the finest stays we had. We stayed at the Club section which overlooks the Arabian ocean . The rooms are very well perched into the sea and nights get very pretty . Food is average five starrish. We ate quite a bit from the shacks in the beach . The Kerala Masala on western cuisine was great

Hotel is in a great location overlooking a beach. We arranged hotel car pick up from Trivadrum airport which was very convenient and not too expensive. Check-in was efficient and staff are attentive. Buffet breakfasts are outdoors which is very nice but can be taken inside where the food is served. Transport to beach is by buggy and can be... More

A truly disappointing stay at a hotel chain, which I thought knew better. Staff were intrusive,... More

Having stayed at the Leela in Gurgaon twice before, I was expecting the same standards in room, service and staff. To my surprise....not even close!!! Before deciding on Leela Kovalam, I searched through almost all reviews on Trip Advisor, there was a toss up between this and Taj as both had mixed reviews. But having been to a Leela I... More

Excellent for a family vacation in Kerala. Good location, a private beach... excellent service. Indian cuisine is good esp. the breakfast is excellent. Thai food is average, it has an two pools one at the bottom and one near the dining place. View form dining area is superb.

We booked this hotel and destination for our honeymoon and were not displeased for it certainly exceeded our expectations in many ways. As a couple we had never been to Kerala before so this hotel did deliver and the service received here was second to none as well as the food along the lighthouse beach. We certinal tasted the best... More
