Taj - Green Cove Resort & Spa, Kovalam, is delightful in many ways. While to some it is one of the finest seaside resorts in Kerala, to others it is an amazing backwater retreat. And there are those that love it for its hill resort layout. Now it's all that and more. There's a nice new buzz all over. In the renewed cottages and villas, the nouvelle restaurants, the high energy bar, and the spa where you'll go Ah!

Taj Green Cove Resort & Spa Kovalam is lauded for its tranquil ambiance, often accentuated by entrancing live music and stunning sunset views. Nestled in a scenic locale, close to the sea, guests are enchanted by its natural surroundings. The resort's amenities, including the infinity pool and lagoon boat rides, receive high marks, though opinions on value for money vary. Warm and professional service is a common highlight, as is the resort's commitment to cleanliness. While the rooms offer impressive views, some guests suggest improvements in privacy and decor.

Nishant230875 wrote a review Jan 2024

5.0 of 5 bubbles
We stayed for 3 nights, me and my parents.

Some highlights of what I remember:
1. Unfortunately the wonderful room we took had a lot of stairs to climb to get to it (I think it was 408), hence was a bit of a challenge for my mother to climb up to everyday. If you are traveling with elderly parents, you may want to choose another room. This is not a hotel with a conventional building and elevators.

2. That said, it was a beautiful spacious room with one of the best views in the property. The interiors of the room were very comforting and comfortable.

3. The buggies moving around the property are very convenient to take a readily available

4. The food was outstanding. We ordered in room dining on 2 nights and the food everytime was delicious.

5. The ambience in the spa area, and in the common lobby area and the bar was very calm and peaceful. The architecture and interior design was such.

6. The people at the check in counter, their manager, the servers at the restaurant all were polite, warm, friendly and very prompt. I especially remember two names: Imam and Vinod who assisted us with our meals and desserts (the kulfi was memorable and indeed special) and talked about the property in general. I forget the chefs name but he too came and had a nice short conversation about meals with us.

7. We took a cab from the hotel to go to the Padmanabhaswamy temple, and to see a few things around outside the hotel. Both the cab, and the VIP visit to the temple (arranged by Taj for its guests) were done so very comfortably for us.

8. The seaside high tea was in a beautiful location (extremely well maintained by Taj), and the view of the sea and the horizon was very beautiful.

9. The property is dense with trees and they have made some small pools and a waterfall within the property, and all these features of the property provide marvel and comfort if you stop to notice them.

We loved our stay here. Our garden room villa was beautiful and very comfortable. The grounds and gardens are lovely and peaceful; we especially enjoyed the lawn area down by the beach. The swimming pool is very nice and the pool / Wellness staff are very attentive and helpful ensuring you have everything you need (towels, pillows, water!). I loved the complimentary morning yoga despite being a beginner - the teacher was excellent. We ate in all 3 restaurants and the food was perfect for us and plenty of choice for breakfast. Abhishek and the restaurant staff looked after us very well and we really appreciated their recommendations and encouragement to try all the local dishes which were delicious. Abhishek ensured our dishes were adjusted for ‘spicyness’ so we could enjoy everything served. Afternoon Tea with the sun setting over the sea must be experienced, with more delicious snacks and masala tea which I loved! Plenty of games and kite flying for the children too. There is a small, well maintained gym which we used daily during our stay to mitigate all the good food we were eating. We enjoyed a game of Carrom on the table outside the bar - thanks to Sebastian for teaching us how to play. The staff here are all truly amazing - always smiling and professional. Special thanks to Abhishek, Sebastian, Sunny, Sonya and Fatima who looked after us so well and made our stay unforgettable.

Our stay at the Taj Green Cove Resort in Kovalam was an unforgettable experience, made even more special by the exceptional service provided by the staff. Raj Maity and Gopikanta went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, consistently checking in to make sure we were comfortable. Chef Manish, who hails from my hometown of Jammu, added a personal touch to our stay by paying close attention to our dietary preferences, crafting meals that were truly special.

The highlight of the resort is undoubtedly its stunning location. Nestled amidst lush greenery, the resort offers some of the most incredible ocean views we've ever seen. Waking up to the sight of the Arabian Sea every morning was a magical experience. The serene atmosphere of the resort, combined with the soothing sounds of the ocean, made for a peaceful and relaxing stay.

We also had the chance to enjoy the resort’s spa, which offered a perfect escape from the daily grind. The treatments were top-notch, and the ambiance was calming, adding to the overall sense of relaxation.

While the location, service, and amenities were exceptional, we felt that the rooms and bathrooms could use some upgrading. A bit more attention to cleanliness would also enhance the experience. That said, the warmth of the staff and the incredible views made it a truly memorable getaway, and we would love to return in the future.

Subject: Feedback on Recent Stay – Taj Hotel, Trivandrum
Dear Taj Hotel Management,
I am writing to share my feedback following my recent stay at your hotel in Trivandrum. After spending a week in the city centre for work, I chose to stay at your hotel near the coastline for a relaxing weekend. Unfortunately, my experience was not as restful as I had hoped due to several issues.
Firstly, the room I was assigned (Room 102) was extremely noisy due to constant traffic from hotel security and the reception area. The hotel manager informed me that there was increased activity in the hotel due to officials in town. Additionally, there was a local festival that started at 04:00 and continued until 01:00 each day, with very loud music. I was not informed about this festival when booking, which made it impossible to rest during my stay.
After enduring two nights of interrupted sleep, I complained to the reception on the second evening. Although I was offered a room change on my last day, this was not a feasible solution as I missed breakfast the previous morning due to catching up on sleep and was scheduled to leave early the next morning.
While I appreciate the approachability of the staff and the cleanliness of the hotel, I found the staff's overbearing assistance at breakfast uncomfortable, possibly due to my complaint the night before. The food at the hotel was satisfactory, with a wide variety of cuisine offered at the buffet breakfast. However, I noticed there was no menu available to indicate that guests could request items like omelettes.
I did not dine at the restaurant during the daytime or evenings, but everything looked appetising. On my last day, I visited the restaurant bar by the sea for a drink and snack with some work friends. The waiter inadvertently sprayed me with the coke can he opened beside me, and although he appeared embarrassed, there was no apology offered.
I found the overall prices for drinks and food to be overpriced, which is common in many hotels. As recompense for the inconveniences I experienced, the hotel manager offered me a massage at the wellness centre. However, upon arrival, I was told that my preferred gender of masseuse was unavailable and that I had no option other than to cancel or have a masseur. This made me uncomfortable and felt like I had no choice in the matter.
My intention in writing this is to bring these issues to your attention and suggest that better communication regarding local events and noise levels would greatly enhance guest comfort. I hope future guests do not face similar issues.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

So after our last trip to a Taj property elsewhere , we were pretty apprehensive to try out another Taj property. We were looking for good recommendations in Kovalam and Pradeep from Ama Stays managed by Taj group strongly recommended Taj kovalam and we decided to give it a shot - and we didn't regret it. We felt really pampered with the utmost attention given to us by the staff. Kumar Amrendra helped us in a hassle free booking process and  right from the pre-booking time we had Anu Parvathi and Ananthu catering to the room arrangements as we were celebrating couple of birthdays. Can't thank Abhirami enough for her proactive approach in catering to all our requirements. What more can you experience when you are giving a suggestion to have a dressing mirror in the bedroom only to find one fixed right away! The staff at the restaurant Jasmine Bay were really attentive to our requests . Especially Tanisha. No words can explain the culinary skills of their Master Chef Mayur Ramachandran. He ensured we get the BEST picks of the day and went out of his way to give us menu as per our request. The dishes were mind blowing. Ice tea was perfect and so were the rasmalai, ney choru,  grilled shrimps and the chicken curry. Food spread at the Jasmine Bay Restaurant was good and all the staff there ensured guests are well attended to. The spa is another memorable experience. Dr. Hergin Charles was very helpful in recommending the best treatment options and helping us plan out the spa in the best possible manner. Sebi was great in keeping the children engaged and they loved the yoga session. All the spa therapists were good, however some are blessed with magical hands - such was Nandini. She was just amazing in head and neck massage such that my aches and pains have disappeared! Since I go to many spas I can vouch that Nandini's session was the best I have experienced!

We stayed in room 501 and the amenities were good. The toiletries were well stocked and we never had an occassion to request for anything more. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious and the pool is also well maintained. Didn't realize how fast the 2 days zoomed with the range of in house activities you had and the vast acres of picturesque land to explore .

Special worth mentioning is Sanil who took the efforts to take some frameworthy family pics of ours. And thank you Aman Verma for catering to our requests especially after 10pm.

Take a bow Suku Verghese and Shadab Khan. The team is amazing and we hope to come back with our extended family to experience this wonderful hospitality.  You have indeed kept the brand name of Taj flying high.

The stay here was absolutely wonderful. The staff were so kind, attentive, and friendly. From check in to check out, we felt welcomed and supported every step of the way. The resort was beautiful and well kept. The service was incredible and anything we needed, the staff were on top of it. We also left one of our items behind after we left, and the manager Seban was extremely helpful in couriering it back to us immediately. The food was delicious and the servers were always conscientious of our order as we have a tree nut allergy. They ensured all the food was safe for us to eat and even offered to cook our meals separately to ensure no cross contamination. Overall, this experience was wonderful and I would highly recommend staying here.

We stayed as a party of 3 - self, my son and my mother at the Taj Green Cove Resort and Spa in January 2025. From the moment we entered the hotel lobby the tranquility and the warm reception of the hotel staff made us feel like we had been transported to another world. The peaceful atmosphere took us away from the chaotic life of the metropolitan city we had arrived from. Jasmine at the reception was ever so friendly and always smiling. She helped us for every little query and was enthusiastic in her service. We had a late arrival at the resort because of our delayed flight and had to rush for our dinner straight after check in. We have no words for the restaurant staff who went above and beyond, specially Abhishek and Gopi to name a few, for their considerate and generous hospitality as well as attention to our likes and dislikes. And this followed the day after in the morning till the end of our stay at Taj. The staff would remember our likes and dislikes and even the minute details of how we took our breakfast coffee!! We had requested a packed lunch on the day of our departure and both Abhishek and the sous chef Har Singh Rawat had ensured that we had a hearty meal with us for the travels.
The stay at Taj Green Cove was both happy and bittersweet as we bid adieu to all these lovely people who treated us as family. They truly embody the essence of the Taj Group…. Incredible hospitality with genuine warmth! To all the staff at Green Cove we miss you all and we will be back soon.

We would like to give shoutout to Noel, Abhishek, and Gopi for their service. The "High-tea" were excellent with stunning views of the sunset. Rooms were surrounded by plants and heavy vegetation growth.
They made all the effort to cater to my wife's special dietary needs. Their vegetarian Kerala Curry was finger licking. Whenever we requested a buggy (golf cart) to transport us to and from our rooms, they were available within 10 mins or less. Overall experience was excellent.

Overall it was a great stay at Taj Kovalam. I would like to extend my gratitude towards each and every one in the staff for a great hospitality at your hotel. Special mention to Raj for the great hospitality.
Also please extend my regards to day and night Chefs for the in room dining. I was travelling with my 1 yr old kid and the chefs made great efforts for serving the kid with great meals throughout the day.
The cleaning staff also helped us with baby bottle sterilization and would like to mention the cleanliness was top notch.
I would also like to mention that the staff was very polite, courteous and really helpful. The best thing I have seen after a long time in hotel is that support staff made all efforts to serve us in the best possible way.
Thank you again for having us stay at Taj Kovalam and making the stay so memorable and pleasing.

Checked in as 3 families requiring 4 rooms. Check in was very smooth and pleasant. Unfortunately all rooms were not in the same cottage as requested. The number 3 cottages don’t really give a Sea view due to the thick vegetations so they should stop advertising the same.
Rooms were nice but the fittings are all old. Need to check bathrooms for loose fittings and broken paint and tiles. As mentioned, outside the balcony it’s all vegetations so didn’t mind that we couldn’t see the sea. Saw a peacock once. The main problem I found was the coordination in service. Housekeeping sometimes delayed our requests or even forgot. During dinner the requests for live food or drinks were delayed by hours. A birthday cake requested didn’t appear. We did complain and they apologized profusely and their service did improve. Two cakes were sent to the room. Food is excellent.
Majority of the staff are excellent and they go out of the way to make our stay a pleasure but due to some bad apples it can sour the stay. But overall very happy.
Things to enjoy- lagoon high tea and activities, Jasmine bay breakfast, spa.
