Find the Cheap Kottukal Hotels

Let's start with good things first. The hotel is at a beautiful location, although a little farther, but away from the crowd and noise, at a peaceful place, a visually appealing huge property. The hospitality and demeanor, the behavior of staff is really great, they are very professional, humble and polite. The resort has multiple stay options, including cottages, cottage with a private pool and hotel like rooms too. The cottages look great, but since we wanted to book separate 2 rooms, online portals only provided options to book the Beach Cove side. We stayed for 3 days with a Senior Citizen and a 2 year old kid. Best part of the Stay - Food, Comfortable Rooms, Hospitality. Commute: Avoid the beach Cove side of properties, it is 3 floors below the ground level and very far from the main gate. You may have the partial beach view (can see it from 1KM), but the inconvenience and commute is not worth it. Only way to reach here is to walk and take an old lift. Which even though is good and always has a staff, inconvenient as the rest of the way is very hard to walk for a kid and senior citizen. They provide a van at times until the lift but you can be waiting a long time to get it or some times they can just say they don't have a van. Beach Access: The beach is quite far from the back gate and not as walkable as the reviews and descriptions make it seem. The back gate itself is far. Once you get out of the back gate need to walk far to get to the beach. No commute available and resort doesn't ***age anything to reach there. They expect people to walk. No empathy for senior citizen and kids. The gate access itself is limited till 6PM only, so if you are planning to watch the sunset at the beach, plan to come back walking 3-4KM to the main entrance from outside the property. It is difficult to find an Auto or other private vehicles too. Amenities: Kids play area, 2 pools, Trampoline, Good Restaurant, TravelDesk, Ayurveda therapy, consultation Food: Expensive! Low value for Money!! The Buffet is very costly and very repetitive and bare basic. For once or twice it is okay although you can't have this every day and night. No consistency, what you ordered and liked today, may be bad the next day. No empathy for special instructions like non spicy food etc. Desserts were good. Room service is terrible. The menu has very limited items, barely any options. They don't even provide plates, spoons and bowls and spoons enough to feed all the people. The Chapatis go hard as a Metal sheet in few minutes. Every order needs 2-3 follow ups to get it right. I posted this review although and the service difference on the last day was Humongous! Wish they could ***age crowd and pressure better. We had asked for some Food To Go on the last day, while they pleasantly arranged for the Lunch parcel, the packaging was terrible and the Khichdi spilled over the whole bag. Was embarrassing at the airport and flight, but we couldn't have just thrown it away, since i

Good day everyone! It was my first time visiting India, Kerala, Ideal Ayurvedic Resort. To say that I had an unforgettable experience is an understatement. My 2 week stay at the Ayurvedic resort was simply excellent, from arrival at the airport till departure. The staff, service, food, treatment, ayurvedic massage are all top notch. I examined the local Ayurvedic centers and want to mention that there were centers with a higher level of accomodations, but Ideal Ayurvedic Resort corresponds to the price and quality. After two weeks of treatment, my general condition and mood noticeably improved, excess weight was noticeably gone, my skin condition were restored. I left with the intention of returning to this place again... Thank you for helping me to discover India at its best!!! Special thanks to Dineesh the ***ager, Vineeth restaurant admin, Jinu driver, Kavita massage therapist. My best wishes all of you in the New Year!

My wife & I had such a delightful and relaxing experience here at Niramaaya Kovalam, the staff are all so lovely & friendly. The accomodation was tasteful yet luxurious & property is simply gorgeous despite the port nearby which is bit of an eye-sore tbh. Overall we had the best anniversary celebration , heavenly swims at the private beach everyday , delicious breakfasts and healthy South Indian food at the restaurant and deeply rejuvenating treatments at the spa. 5-stars overall no doubt, thank you everyone at Niramaaya for making our stay extra special , this was a trip to remember.

Overall stay was good. Ayurvedic massage was really helpful and refreshing as we were travel-ling since 10 days. Food at their newly launched restaurant was so delicious.

This happened around 25th to 28th Feb 2023 The rooms need immediate attention / The staff is from other state and not in mood of serving people / Staff is rude / never hear a word as SORRY / The both Towels given were in rags / having stains of black like used for hair dying in salon / so worn-out that you can see through and having holes / on request the staff did not have replacement frest towels / had to use our own towel / Food is good / swimming pool was good but no adequate lighting / I tried reaching out to the Duty Manager but never showed up Name as per the staff Mr. Verghese / spoilt my day

The property is located at nice location with beach views but has several limitations. Here are pros and cons. Pros: beautiful location Clean rooms Polite staff (housekeeping, electrical and restaurant) Decent food options at restaurant Auto rikshaw can be hailed nearby to go places such as hawa beach or kovalam beach Cons: 1. Too many stairs everywhere; thus it may be not suitable for a family with elderly and babies. No lift/elevators which could have been game changer for this resort. The restaurant is also to be reached by 2 floors downstairs from reception.private beach access has countless stairs. For young people it may not be an issue. 2. No wifi connectivity in rooms 3. Located at downhill road 4. Somewhat old property; can have renovation
