3 Star Hotels in Akathumuri, Varkala

"The reception staff was very friendly. However the room was a disappointment. There was not toilet paper, the sheets were dirty and stained.

"We came for a week and booked three more! It’s such a special place❤️ The staff treats you so well and looks after all your needs. It’s far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the cliffs but yet a short walk if you want to venture out for a meal. The beach is fabulous and the Arabian Sea water is so warm and therapeutic.
