Looking For A Budget Trip For A Group Or Family? Check Out This Hotel & Spa

What Makes It Awesome

For a family get together or for an alumni meet, this place is budget friendly for all. It's on the Kovalam beach so the destination is just perfect. The resort is fairly big and has three swimming pools, two restaurants and enough open areas to accommodate group events. The property is decent looking and well maintained. One can either catch a train from Bangalore to Kochuveli or drive down {8 to 9 hours}. The Trivandrum airport isn't far too. So flying in is a good option as well.

The food is decent and the service like any mid range resort. But the property is definitely better than a regular budget hotel in this area. The beach outside also has a few restaurants that serve average fare.

What Could Be Better?

The hotel isn't equipped to handle full occupancy, that can definitely be worked upon.

What's My Pro Tip?

Check the rates on Goibibo and other sites always, the deals are great. We got rooms for INR 4000 per night. But if it's a bigger group that you're travelling with then directly calling the hotel can perhaps fetch you better rates.

Also, ask for rooms near the swimming pool with the bar, those have a nice sea view. And carry swimwear and flip flop for sure.

Anything Else?

The breakfast buffet is good so better to take a room that has rates inclusive of that. One can plan to go to the light house beach for dinner or lunch while staying here. That side though crowded has a better range of restaurants.
