I loved the Indian breakfasts. When Diljit (the Manager) makes chickpea curry. That was SO GOOD! That was the best chickpea curry I have ever eaten! I also liked the hostel because it has a very clean spacious nice well equpped kitchen on the top floor - the roof floor. So I could go buy fish to the nearby very pittoresque fishmen village called Vizhinjam in the early morning and then I cooked it myself. That was top! I also made myself pancakes! It is so nice to have a nice kitchen. And a fridge. And a cast iron pan! They also have a washing machine, so I could wash my clothes. That was a plus. The female dorm room is not big, but it has a little balcony so it remains airy. The bathroom was super clean. Also bed sheets were clean and nice smelling. The location could not be better as it is 1 min walk to the Kovalam Beach, the main beach. So you can walk there bare feet. The hostel also has a big roof top veranda - a covered space, green - has a shade from nearby tall trees, from there you can see the sea and enjoy the breeze. Birds, crows will come to see if you have some food for them. They are like hostel pets! They almost eat from your hand! It is like a Bird Zoo!

My family and I stayed here, and we absolutely loved it! The property is newly built, very spacious, and beautifully designed with much thought put into details. It’s in a good location, making it super easy to get around. The approach to place can be a bit tricky at first but not much of a hassle. Everything we needed was provided, and everything was in perfect order. The place was spotless, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the cozy setup made it feel like a home away from home. The ample space—it made the whole experience so much more relaxing. For the price, it’s amazing value for money. Whether you’re planning a quick trip or a longer stay, this property is perfect. It’s an independent stay, which adds a nice touch of privacy and flexibility. At the same time, Adith is easily reachable and addresses concerns readily. I’d recommend this stay to anyone, especially families.
