Mari is a bubbly, warm person. Her small guesthouse is 40m from the beach and provides the perfect base to explore Varkala life. The rooms are creatively decorated with mandalas and in the social space in the courtyard always has someone drawing, making bracelets or painting. Mari is a keen artist so make sure you ask to see her work. Rooms of varied prices from only 200 Rupees. Bargain for the fun had here.

We had such a wonderful, magical, delightful time with Mari at 'On The Way'. It felt like home and we could have stayed longer. My boyfriend and I stayed in the cheaper downstairs room (there are 5 rooms in total) and we were spoilt by mandala drawings and creativity everywhere. If you want somewhere beautiful and quirky to to stay in Varkala then On The away is the place. Our room was a spacious double with large bathroom. The rooms are clean and the slightly more expensive rooms have balconies. There is a beautiful shared area with tables and comfy chairs and there is plenty of space to hang your washing. The wifi is strong and location perfect for the beach and restaurants. I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting a home from home. You will LOVE it. Also check out Darjeeling cafe whilst here. Mari's husband is the owner and the food here is so so tasty with a stunning sea view and again homely feel.…

So special, felt like a magical beautiful home in such a beautiful place. Dream of coming back everyday!!! Thank u for all your advice and beautiful words, you really helped us out and gave us great ideas about India. The rooms are beautifully decorated and comfy, and nicely hidden from the very front of the beach but still close :)
