We’ve been here for 5 days. Everything was incredible!! Such a lovely place! Mr. Joseph is very friendly and helpful man! Also big thanks to Mama!!! Strongly recommended if you decided to visit Alappuzha !
We had stayed here 6 yrs back when the property was called Ananda Beach Home. It's a beach front property with a great view of the sea and beach. We thought of getting the same great service as last time, but we were terribly wrong. No geyser in rooms, No TV, No room service, Restaurant was closed, so except coffee and milk, we didn't get anything else. To top this, location is not serviceable by neither Swiggy nor Zomato. So expect to go hungry if don't find anything decent to eat.
Pozhiyoram Beach Resort, Alappuzha Four years ago the place was called Ananda Beach Home and was rather primitive. Fortunately, a lot has changed for the better. I stayed in the beach view cottage that is now equipped with a lot of useful things. The verandah has been glassed in, forming an additional room. The AC worked well and the WiFi was fast and reliable. There is even a small fridge in the room to keep your drinks cool. There was a problem with the water tap in the bathroom which did not work properly. So I approached Mr Cyrus Joseph who acted real fast. An hour later a plumber arrived and fixed a new tap within half an hour. That's what I like about India : Anything is possible. The cottage is only about five meters away from the sea, so the waves make the only sound you hear at night. The beach in front of the resort is very lonely. Breakfast is prepared right there on the premises. You can choose between different styles, but fresh fruit and black coffee are alway served. I liked the tasty omelet, but my favorite was the Kerala style breakfast with chickpea curry. For dinner there was a menu to choose from. The food was delivered from a nearby restaurant. I tried an Ayurveda massage which proved to be an interesting experience. Every evening I was served a pot of black coffee free of charge and there was a bottle of drinking water with every meal. The final bill was very reasonable and my Mastercard was accepted. So the Pozhiyoram Beach Resort is the ideal place for you if you like peace and quiet and enjoy a little of that famous Robinson Crusoe feeling. Highly recommended! …
Pozhiyoram is located in Alappuzha is a beach side resort which is calm and away from the city. The only sound is that of the sea and tides. Enough place for children to play sand games and any other kind of activities The beach is small and is not private. We can see fishermen engaged in day to day activates with their boats and nets. The resort is clean and staff are very co operating and are ready to prepare our choice of food in a delicious manner. Hospitality is excellent and are ready to hear us. We were around seven families together stayed there. They arranged a camp fire in the night . Rooms are average in size and bathrooms are with open roof for some cottages. The only problem we faced was the bad smell from the sea some times and the presence of wandering cats nearby.…
Our family took a train from varkala to alleppey with a total time of 3.5 hours. The ride from the station to the resort is a 20 min ride. For transportation you can either book the prepaid auto or taxi which is near the railway station. The charges are fixed by the govt. Reaching the Pozhiyoram Beach Resort you are greeted by the owner and his staff Mr Sonu. Fresh lemon drinks were ofdered to us by them and our luggage carried to the 1st floor of the main building. The view is almost surreal with the beach. The rooms are big and luminous with the whole rooms and doors with a vintage touch. Mr Sonu only booked our Kerala backwaters for rs 1000 per person for 3 hours for a full private tour. And Mr Harry took us to a small food plave called Tasty Lands where two kites Karan and Arjun where the main attractions. After the trip we went back to the hotel and enjoyed the Pozhiyoram Beach which is just behind the resort with no traffic. The food though not made at the resort is brought from the Pozhiyoram Restaurant which mind is tasty and the quantity is appreciable. Also I would like to mention a small place to eat Shri Mahavir Veg Dhaba which is near the starting point of Kerala Backwaters which has some seriously tasty food. Also Mr Sonu booked us a cab from Alleppey to Thekkady with a small tour to the Alleppey Lighthouse and Alleppey beach included in the price which is just Rs 200 more than the Prepaid Taxi for the same Alleppey to Thekkady(rs 3800). The driver Mr Mathew who is the nicest person I ever met was not only our driver but our guide to all the names and places. He not only does these short trips but also long trips. (8281566046) All in all our stay was made very comfortable at the resort which will be under renovation from March.…
Just few stap away from crowded Alleppey beach , this Pozhiyoram beach resort on the tranquil and serene Thumpoly beach is a perfect stay at Alleppey. The property is just awesome and clean. We 2 reach there just on a day when our accompanied car get troubled, next day was general strike at Kerala and we next day had a booking at Kumarkom houseboat. The Owner himself took the responsibility and arrange a car for us so that we reach the Houseboat safely. The Restaurant here have a very tasty food. The Staffs having very friendly behavior and very much helpful. We love to be here again . The walk from crowded Alleppey beact to this Thumpoly beach is an awesome transition from noise to calmness. The fisherman and their activity and fisheries boat added an additional dimension of beauty to this Thumpoly beach .…
Just avoid this so called beach resort. After booking through Agoda.com, we visited the hotel to check in and it came as a rude shock that the room provided was very shabby and the Rest room did not have a roof over it. this was disgusting and when approached the care takers was told that it is the last room. after having wasted couple of hours finally had to cancel the booking loosing the precious holiday time. Do not go by the images on the net and just avoid it especially travelling with family.
The hotel is close to the beach as well close to the drainage of the village also.The hotel have lots of garden but no maintenance.The rooms are soo dull no lights working properly.The breakfast will be served after 10am only.There is no proper registration while doing our checkin.The manager he is another black mark for the hotel.
No facilities, no restaurant, no hot water, unclean beach...Bathrooms are not good...The only plus point is you can hear sea sound...nothing else...Had to ask the care taker to switch on the motor as water was not coming in taps...
The so-called resort has very dirty rooms and bathrooms. You will be shocked to know, what you see in the picture and a what you see there is completely different.The pictures online are just to trap you. The management doesn't know hospitality. We were not provided with hot water. Also the food is really bad. Iwill definitely not suggest this place.
