Went here with family and an infant. A perfect family vacation. Since I mentioned perfect I will just discuss the area of improvement. The rooms were good, one change required instead of cloth screens they should look for alternative. The cloth screen keeps moving when fans turn on which affects privacy. The restaurant food is too costly. Though food taste and service is ok. A tea which costs Rs.40 is not Ok. The room is charged Rs.3000 why not keep a kettle and Tea, Coffee and Milk powder at least. This is a basic thing.

We worked from Pura Vida for two weeks. It was a memorable stay. The ocean views are amazing from the room. We took the family room. It had an extra room with bathroom which worked perfectly since we were three of us and everyone had enough space. Karthik, the property ***ager, was super helpful and has really set the bar for hospitality. At the end of the trip, we felt like we were living in our own house. They have a restaurant on the property. The food is great, and tastes like home cooked food, but the menu doesn't have any local food options. Beach is easily accessible via a flight of stairs. The property is on the South cliff, which is the Quieter part of Varkala, but it worked for us, since we had the beach to ourselves. Anytime we wanted to go to the north cliff, you could walk ***** the beach for 15 mins, or take the rickshaw for 100rs. The wifi was great. The property has a beautiful lawn which we used to play cricket, frisbee or relax on the chairs. Overall, definitely recommending a stay at this place.

We arrived after 3 pm and had to wait another half hour for the room outside in the hot sun. There were no towels in the room and were provided only after 6 pm. There is no phone service or in house dining. Breakfast was just a fixed option of dosa and tasted very average. The landscaping can be maintained a bit better and better seating facilities can be provided with cushions and towels. The walk to the beach is poorly lit and not recommended after 6 pm. Overall very average stay. Better stay options are available at Varkala.

We worked from the property for a week and it was spectacular. There were 3 of us so we took the family room which is a large room with a smaller room attached and 2 bathrooms. It was very spacious, clean and very well maintained. The property is very beautiful and you can see the ocean from the rooms. The ***ager Kartik was very helpful and went out of his way to give us anything we needed. He even allowed us to take his bike one night when we had to go into town. The kitchen staff does not make local food however everything we ordered was delicious. The resort is close to the beach, it's a 2 mins trek downhill 7 mins uphill, the steps are a little steep but ***ageable. It is located ont he South Cliff, which is 10 mins away from where all the activity is. But that means you get the entire beach to yourself. If you want to go to the north you can take a rickshaw for Rs, 100 or walk ***** the beach for around 15 mins, the walk is rather wonderful. Overall it was a great experience and i highly recommend it to anyone visiting Varkala.

The view is epic and food is the yummiest in Varkala. We tried the North Indian food and it didn't fail us. You get to have your meal with a beautiful view. Though service is a little slow, the food is worth the wait

A beautiful sea side hotel, even though kitchen is very small - the chef cooks good food. Room are somewhat ok, there is no power backup in case of outage - we were in dark for 1 hour - which I didnt like. Owner assures to get it done in future. staff helps out with all baggage, very helpful with giving out information as well. Would definitely recommend for the sea side view and hangout

Room very clean and simple. Garden serene and well kept. My only disappoin**ent, there is NO pool. It was my n.1 thing, since down to the beach there are ***Y steps. The desk said they are going to remove the photo of the pool from the ad…. We’ll see…..
