Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Yes, it's a new property. The guys are still finishing and trying to make it comfortable. The hostel is located just one step from the beach and cafes. The staff is very friendly.Everything is nearby here. If you are a backpacker, go for it, you'll like it.

    Although the hostel just opened 1 week ago and I was the only guest during my stay, I had a nice time! I felt very welcome and I loved the breakfast. I think it’s going to be a nice hostel for backpackers :)

    The staff here is extremely helpful and kind. They make sure their guests are well attended to and have a comfortable and happy stay. It was my first trip after covid and it was a wonderful experience staying at Moon Valley Cottage. Kovalam beach is about 100m away from here. Even at night the passage to beach is well-lit and safe. Would totally recommend anyone who is traveling on a budget.
