Value for money and will likely visit again
Pros:

The rooms were spacious and clean . Sharon and the staff were most courteous. We had an exclusive hut for a private party and the food was excellent and reasonably priced .

Cons:

The hotel is not a beach front , the beach is a bit of a walk (about half a km ) and the rooms did not have a balcony or a view to the outside.

100% value for money. Thanks so much Sharon (reception staff), for making my stay memorable- you are a true gem of a per
Pros:

Everything. It is a botique hotel with about 11 rooms I belive, located not very far from Arabian Sea (not too far from Mararikulam main beach as well). It was such well maintained, clean, and beautiful property. They have big rooms, even bigger bathrooms with open roof. Amazing pool, with a beautiful mango tree hanging onto the pool. They do have a wooden boat 🚤 service which guests can take to get to the beach which is fun! 😂. Food is amazing and the staff treats you like family. They do have a spa where you can get very professional ayurvedic massage (definitely 100% professional massage- I know I’ve done it a 1000 times before 😉). What more do you need !!!

Cons:

I loved everything ♥️

Very warm and quiet stay, fulfilling all our needs
Pros:

Almost everything, particularly the bespoke and focused service. The owner himself was involved in sorting out issues we faced - so top marks to that. Very warm hospitality amidst a traditional, lovely setting

Cons:

AC and wifi issues, which were sorted on day 2 of our stay

Beautiful ambience with access to private beach via canoes
Pros:

The accommodation felt like a proper resort, completely separated from the rest of Mararikulam. It was really comfortable; everything we needed was available on the premises, so we could have stayed in the hotel if we wanted to, with no worries whatsoever.
Upon arrival, we were greeted with a huge smile, and the staff's friendly, helpful attitude should be the gold standard everywhere. They were ready to arrange any trips or tours for us (Kerala Backwaters is a must if you're in the neighbourhood). We were surprised that we had access to canoes anytime during the day, which made our commute to the private ocean beach very convenient. The pool and poolside were also convenient, though I can imagine the space would be limited when all rooms are fully booked.
We enjoyed ourselves so much that we extended our stay by one night. The food was full of taste and available at a reasonable price. Breakfast showed a nice day-to-day variation, and I was happy that so many of the available options were inherently gluten-free.

Cons:

Our first room had a weird smell in the bathroom, which was addressed on the first day. However, even after fixing the drain, the smell somehow lingered. Perhaps the toilet's cistern in room 106 should be deep-cleaned or replaced. Our second room (due to our extension) was not nearly as comfortable; the bed in room 102 is probably ready to be replaced.
There were a bunch of rather cheeky crows around the dining area during breakfast, and they should be kept out somehow if possible. My breakfast had to be replaced once because I left my food unattended for a minute.

Lovely hotel and great service.
Pros:

Fantastic service. Friendly and full of smiles.

Not sure about the beach. Dirty and a bit forlorn. Not really the hotel’s fault though.

Aanrader!
Pros:

Supermooi boutique hotel. Zeer professionele en vriendelijke ontvangst.
Heerlijk rustig. Marari Beach is nog niet overspoeld door toeristen.
Leuk om met de kano naar het strand te gaan.
Mooie, ruime kamer en buitenbadkamer, wat ons betreft altijd een bonus.
Superlekker eten.
Wij verbleven hier maar één nacht. Volgende keer blijven we zeker langer!

Cons:

Niets
