Mohans Ayurvedic Beach Resort, hotel in Varkala

Located in Varkala, a 4-minute walk from Varkala Beach, Mohans Ayurvedic Beach Resort has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.

Even though it’s on the cliff, it is set in a little, which makes it a quiet place to stay. Also—the food at Mohans is really good. And since I was not well for a few days, I took advantage of the room service.

Kshetra by Inara, hotel in Varkala

Located in Varkala, a 3-minute walk from Odayam Beach, Kshetra by Inara provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a restaurant and a spa & wellness center.

Rooms are neat and clean. Tried the retro style doors and windows. Spacious and courtyard style hotel. Centre courtyard is very nice with a Buddha statue in centre with a pool with fishes... Recently there was changed in management and the new management is trying their best to accustom with the resort. Though there were hiccups in maintaining, they were rectified later and with a sorry. (Acceptable). Regarding food. Food is good but took time immemorial (just kidding). Need more staff to handle kitchen... Photographic courtyard and the Darbar hall... Has inhouse spa which is noteworthy. Experienced and trained staffs. Walkable to North cliff varkala. Located admist the residences and other resorts... Very quiet place. Devoid of road disturbance. Serene place to relax. Access road is walkable. Very tedious in taking 4 wheeler to the location(usual in Kerala).

    The beach was awesome, the water temperature and calmness of the sea making it perfect for swimming. Varkala itself had plenty of options for eating at any budget level and the people were friendly, helpful and generally very honest in their dealings with tourists. The temple was especially interesting for us and was mostly open to non-hindus to walk around its grounds.

    Large beach with fabulous turquoise sea and big waves with some sun beds down one end if wanted . Lovely views and sunsets. Busy lively area ( we were there just after Xmas/ new year ) with many restaurants and shops along the cliff side. No beach hawkers on beach which made a change . Not really suitable for young children or people with mobility issues as big waves and steep steps to beach . We ate at costa del mer which had good European food if you feel like a change from the standard Indian food and was really excellent for breakfast as well as other meals . There are also cheaper good more traditional Indian restaurants just off the main drag . Roof top sky bar great for sundowners overlooking beach .

    I cannot recommend Varkala as a city to visit due to aggressive and high-speed driving of locals on tiny roads. I felt myself unsafe to walk there. Walking to the beach was a challenge and stressful due to drivers and broken and hanging electric cables along the road. Some of the cables were connected to the electric column and other end was laying down on the road. I was worried of being electrocuted during the rain.

    A good break. We went there off-season.

    A good break. We went there off-season. So, a lot of shops were shut. We stayed away from the central cliff area but within walking/cabbing distance. Not much crowd, the weather was good. The cliff-beach walk was a good different experience. In the evening, the cliff side restaurants have a Goa-feel. Lots of small hidden cafes and eateries. We picked a hotel (B'Canti) with a swimming pool, so got the water fix. The sea was quite rough this season (July). Don't miss the Kaapil beach where the river/stream meets the sea. We spent quite some time there, thanks to a tip from a waiter (Darjeeling cafe - also good for lunch, and ice cream). A visit to the Mangroves is a must-do. You can either kayak or go on a boat.

    I stayed in Varkala for 3 nights.

    I stayed in Varkala for 3 nights. This was mainly due to train timings. 2 nights would’ve been enough. I did a yoga class and auryvedic massage on the last day this would have been better in the second day. What I did find slightly confusing was the references to North & South Cliff whereas I think South Cliff was an extension of the cliff walk - starting with North cliff. Plenty of choice for food although a particular favourite was Sun Francisco - the Veg Tali was delicious and good value for money.

    A beautiful secret escape a stone's throw away from The north cliff! Cliff Cottage is not to be missed! If Varkala's slow pace of life is what you're looking for the cottage is the perfect place to relax! The guys who run it are very helpful and chill. Each room has it's own terrace, the animals on the grounds are as lovely as the garden and you can hear the birds chirping all day! At an affordable price and so close to everything Varkala offers, Cliff Cottage is my favourite place to stay in Varkala!

    Lovely location right on the beach, perfect for sunsets. Not so many people around as the Cliffs areas, which are a 20 minute walk along the beach (bring a torch as it is not well lit). Breakfast was decent. Friendly staff. Arranged us transfers that went perfectly at a good price. Bed was comfortable. It was clean. Excellent value overall. Room door was cool with an ornate lockable bolt, writing this from a 5 star hotel that has a fake version of the same.

    The hotel is near Odayam Beach. Right in between Kappil beach and Varkala Beach. Its away from the noise and music of the cliff, but close enough that you won't mind the trip. Its a very short walk to a beautiful cliff nearby. Need an auto (10 min ride) to goto Varkala Beach and cliff. You can get an auto guy's number from the host. He was very helpful.

    Great and Amazing stay experience in this resort. Actually this resort was built with excellent architecture. The room was very clean and the manager was very friendly and guided us for local sightseeing. The room was very close to black sand beach and north cliff. We enjoyed our stay here and must visit the place at Varkala.
