Terrible experience! 1. The hotel is dirty. 2. The rooms are shabby with no ventilation. 3. Water leakage from bathroom and AC vent. 4. The door of the room did not close properly. 5. Pathetic interior with weird curtains and furniture color. 6. The rooms which were sold as "sea facing" were not quite so as the narrow view was... More

The hotel claims to have wifi and the manager told us it was temporarily down when in fact it isn't even installed. We had to move to 3 different rooms in 3 days. None had hot water, the A/C was either down or funtioned only when it felt for it, not when we needed it. Power failures were frequent and... More

Location: The resort is located bang on Kovalam beach. That's all were the happiness ends. ! This place doesn't have direct road access and one needs to walk 5 minutes on the beach front to reach the hotel entrance. ! The vehicle needs to be parked at the beach parking and the hotel sends a small push-cart that carries your... More

We have stayed for 18 days all over Kerala and the 4 nights that we have spend at Pappukutty was by far the most disappointing. No maintenance and no basic hygiene whatsoever! We have made an online booking for the best and most expensive room at Pappukutty but at arrival we got a reallly bad room: stuffy, dirty, pipes leaking... More

The location of the hotel was simply marvellous. Right on the beach. We visited Kovalam last in 2007. That time we stayed in Hotel Sea Rock. Another hotel that was located ideally. Bang on the beach. But the experience of staying at that hotel was marred by poor and selective service provided by the staff there. Please read my review... More

It has it's own restaurent facing sea so you need not worry about if you want to take sea facing room or not as you will be mostly in it's restaurent. Service is little slow but you will not mind as yo uare enjoying the view.... More

the location is really nice but rooms and service needs serious attention. AC was not working during our entire stay but no one would listen. All they kept saying is (give us 5 minutes). The restaurant looked unhygienic, ants around.

I, with my better half, stayed in this resort end of Nov 2011. It's a very good place to stay location-wise and the view from our room was awesome (moving waves). Decent room with all necessary equipment. Breakfast has fewer options but it was already mentioned before the travel, so not a problem. Thanks for the time there, will definitely... More

Though not a fancy place, there were definitely some nice additional touches. The rooms were comfortable, the pool and area was clean and breakfast was included. I loved watching the fisherman bring in the mornings catch as I ate.
