B’ Canti Boutique Beach Resort :One of the best resorts on south cliff. Amazing location of the resort. The food provided here is great. We mostly enjoyed our tea and snacks in the sea view area with a great view so relaxing and can feel true vibes. They also provide “Candle Light Dinner” at the edge of garden are which is most amazing experience in my life ♥️ made my day. Much thanks to Mr. Pat Director of this property (Very polite and genuine person) The cooking staff is also very accommodating and great people. Co workers from F&B Bidhan/Vishnu/Vinay served great food & made refreshing mock tails for us. The rooms were clean and big. Our stay was very comfortable. The outside green area is also really nice to relax with family and enjoyed in the clean pool. There is a private beach stair entrance near the cliff that goes down to beach. A beautiful place to watch sunset/sunrise Overall we had amazing stay. Would highly recommend this resort.

A simple comfortable hotel with great service from the management team. I'd left some chocolates behind and travelled on to Kovalam. They were kind enough to have these couriered over to our next hotel. Anil who does the Yoga was just brilliant. The Yoga is done in another building on the roof top. The sea views are fabulous, and at night, the sound of the waves breaking on the shore is wonderful. Breakfast service was a bit erratic, and the manager at breakfast needs to remember what guests have requested and deliver them together in a timely manner. No point in providing my sunny side up eggs without the toast that I'd asked for so both can be eaten together whilst warm. Harish was also outstanding checking on guests and making sure their needs were met.

This resort has given me lifetime memories which I can never forget in my life. I went there in February on my birthday and this was one of the best decision I have ever taken for my birthday. This was my best birthday till now. They people arranged everything to make my birthday special. My boyfriend asked them for candle light dinner at the beach. You can imagine how exotic it would be, beach, candle light dinner, cake cutting at beach and your loved one. Staying in this resort where from room only you can see the beach view, pool and beautiful sunset is itself an amazing thing.
Room were so good. Perfect beach view you can have from your room itself and that cozy bed and balcony. You will get everything in room even if you forget any small small thing you will get it in the room. I have checked-in to many hotels, resorts as I am a traveller but still never seen these many things.
Service was really amazing. They will serve you very nicely. And people who are working are also in nature.
Now comes to Food. It was so delicious I never expected I could get some good food in kerala as I am from north and I don't like South Indian much but still I liked the food, the way they prepare I think I should have learnt that so that I could cook that in my home. Specially Kerala parantha with paneer butter masala, vanila milkshake are must have.
You can get some nice pictures as this place is very beautiful. I was so busy in clicking pictures that I couldn't go to other places in Varkala. I just explored 2 beaches first was infront of our room and Janardhan Swami temple.
Thanks to my boyfriend who took me there.

Expensive hotel for low season. It is a 40-minute walk from the area of beach bars, restaurants and shops of Varkala Beach, which is the beautiful beach in the area. The rooms correspond to a 3-star European hotel, the bed is comfortable and the bathroom is renovated and good. But they are very poorly soundproofed, we asked for 2 standard rooms and they gave us terrible views of a building under construction with remains of garbage and spent bottles, with the noise of the construction (radial, bangs...) from 8 o'clock in the morning. tomorrow at the weekend. Additionally, there is a mosque right next door that plays prayer songs through loudspeakers every 3-4 hours, also in the middle of the night, which scared us to death when it started playing at 4:30 in the morning. Then at 7 it rang again. You come to rest and it is impossible to sleep well. They had the hotel with less than 25% occupancy and they placed us in those rooms. There is no beach as such, it is a cliff and if there is waves you cannot access it. Since you are away from everything, the price that the hotel offers you for a transportation service is double. The restaurant and its staff are very good, with views of the sea. Abundant breakfast, the food is varied and good. The pool is shallow but enough for a swim. You have the option of doing yoga in the morning (included in the price) and hiring Ayurvedic treatments but at very high prices. In Goa and Kochi everything is much cheaper.

The price of a 16 ml glass of wine beats all, records 750 Rs excluding tax and is not mentioned on the menu In addition, they add taxes that they will probably never pay to the state 😂 The place is nice but the manager has no business sense, too bad I won't go again

1. Staff are very friendly and try to look after you 2. Rooms are clean and probably a good standard for the area. 3. Amazing views 4. Peaceful
You need to know that this hotel isolated and at least 4km walk from Varkala Cliffs which has a variety of eating establishments and shops. You also can’t walk straight into the beach as the property is on a cliff.
What’s not so positive 1. Apart from 1-2 staff all others struggle with basic English 2. Rooms are very small (and we had a super delux room) 3. There is no such thing as a private balcony as advertised. 4. Breakfast - we paid for a room with breakfast but were charged for the water we drank at breakfast.
If you stay on 31st December you must pay for the NYE celebrations. They made a real effort for this, there was a cultural show, compare and they built a stage with red carpet. The food was very good and the staff attentive.
Unfortunately they missed their audience when it came to the DJ/music, the average age was circa 45 but they decided to play techno music at full volume, there was no way of getting away from the noise, even if you retired to your room, the rooms vibrated and it was quite unsettling. Ir was just insane. My husband and I spoke to both the manager and the owner to no avail. We were very happy that the music/ DJ ended at 12.30.
It’s such a shame the music was so off the mark as this could have been a wonderful NYE celebration.
It’s currently 3am and I am awake from the noise from maintenace dismantling the stage.
India is a country if contradictions and this hotel lived

I have been to many resorts in India, but this one is a special one because it has given a beautiful experience of life time. The resort is located right at the beach shores outside the hustle of Varkala beach. The view is amazing from all the rooms. And the pool & the beach accessibility gives an exotic vibes when you are staying here. Everyone working in the resort including all the staff are amazing people and very friendly. We stayed for 4days and we celebrated my girlfriend birthday here. They arranged for a cake cutting with beautiful candle light dinner set up on the beach shore.

We were here for less than one day and we paid a huge amount for that considering it was quite a small room with a tiny bathroom but I guess they mostly charge you for the view which is simply amazing. I feel it is more of a good bed and breakfast than a resort. They did not even have a breakfast spread, it was more of À la carte; did not have a hair dryer as well but having said that they maintain a good quality with whatever they have. We had a good time sitting outside watching sea there but its just when we pay what we paid I expect more luxury than what it offers.

I would highly recommend the B'Canti Boutique Beach Resort for anyone looking to experience the beauty of nature and relax in a comfortable and welcoming environment full of tides. The property itself is described as beautiful, with an amazing view that is sure to take your breath away. The food and staff at the property are also excellent, adding to the overall enjoyment of the experience. The mesmerizing sunset & sunrise view creates a cozy and relaxing atmosphere in the evenings. All in all, B'Canti is a must-visit property for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and enjoy the beauty of beach.

Start with good things Nice comfortable rooms Beach front with lovely sunset Helpful manager
Bad things Restaurant needs up dating with new toaster , needs to improve breakfast menu, few things we asked from the evening menu they could not provide. They insist on having evening meal on the beach even when it's very breezy. Restaurant staff needs to be more interactive with customers.
