The stay was very good, it was big enough for 2 people with all the facilities, the location is just 20m away from the cliff view, the varkala beach is just 5mins away. The rooms were very clean and the caretaker Akhil was very helpful , he arranged a rental scooter and dropped us to the bus stop on the day of check-out. The view for the sea from the avanthi restaurant is just beautiful.

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.

Varkala beach is busy very busy on weekends with lots of Indian tourists. The cliff side walk has lots of restaurants and shops. We found the beach a bit rough with the waves but beyond the waves it was calm . The stairs to the beach can be challenging if you have knee issues . It’s has a good atmosphere but we prefer less touristy places hence staying at Odayam each area .

Touristic place.
Touristic place. So lots of restaurants with a large variety of meals, bars, shops, ressorts, loud music, massage.
Best restaurant is Clafouti for me.
Nice beaches, big temple.
This is a tourist destination. India' s soul not there. Crowdy, noisy, pushy salesmen, beggers, stray dogs.
Pretty dirty environment cause of littering.
2 to 3 days stay is enough.

AS OF ME, IT'S NOT SUITABLE FOR THE FAMILY TRAVELLERS, ITS UNSAFE TO ALLOW THE CHILDRENS TO PLAY IN THE SEA SOUR IT HAS DEEPER EVEN IN THE SEA SOUR, BEACH NEAR AREA HAS VERY NARROW ROADS & COJUSTED. I FELT THE CHERAI BEACH IS FAR BETTER THAN THE VARKALA.

Beautiful views from the cliffs, plenty of beaches, option to learn surfing (!), good food, and the most gorgeous mangrove/backwaters (30 mins away).... that's Varakala in nutshell. Lovely cliffside walks with breaks for some ice cream at Scoopy or a whole Israeli breakfast(yummmm) at Buddha Bar. We loved ABBA for all other hunger pangs. Having a rented scooter to go around the places away from the cliffs helps, but there were plenty of Autos as well.

Its took travel time is too far, Kerala roads are not good.
Its took travel time is too far, Kerala roads are not good. Many people not follow traffic rules. Really upset to road travel to Kerala. Many sign boards are shown only in Malayalam Language, we struggled with read.
Except that places are really good and peoples also very friendly.
Very beautifully decorated house and garden with many stylish details and thoughtful touches . We loved that each room had its own balcony all so pretty.. It was a luxurious stay and we hardly wanted to leave the property as it was very peaceful and even had a couple of resident ducks. The owner Ajay was delightful and very interesting to talk to. It was well placed for walking 5 mins down to the beach on south cliff and then up again to north beach.
Gosh this was a luxurious find , a large room with balconies, located inside a very spacious Residence. It has excellent kitchen facilities, if you choose to cook or just have snacks . There is a communal fridge. We loved having access to the washing machine. It is extremely clean and well maintained . Sudeer , will ensure you stay is very comfortable. We can highly recommend if you want a quiet place not far from the Varkala cliffs and the beach .
This hostal is a gem in Varkala. I have been traveling around the world and it is very amazing to find staff that is working with passion and love for what they do. All the areas are super clean included the rooms. The location is a walking distance to the cliff, the service at reception was excellent, the room was much better then I had expected, amazing service,I loved everything about this hotel. Thank you for a magnificent stay
I stayed here for 2 days. The room on the ground floor is only AC the rest are non AC.A total of 3 rooms. One on the ground floor and the other on the second floor.Very near to varkala south cliff beach 10 min walk.restaurants are also nearby.The owner is very helpful and decent person.car parking is available.Quite locality.second floor room have a kitchen and dining table as well.
Beautifully thought out rooms each with their own balcony, perfect for breakfasting, reading, contemplating away from the bustle of Indian streets. A short walk from Varkala beach - 10 mins form the main cliff-top tourist restaurants and souvenir shops. Very friendly staff and owner - helpful researching and sorting our onward connections. Would definitely recommend.
We’re a family visiting from Australianand we’re lucky to come across this new, modern and clean hotel with comfortable rooms and beds, very professional staff who are keen to make all guests feel welcome, and an excellent location that is in a quiet spot yet only 40 metres walk from the cliff where all the action is, 5 minutes walk from the beach.
The best part i can say it's closed to Varkala Jaganathan temple and the beach. This is the only and only reason to book this hotel.
The next one as my booking for 1 night which later i planned to extend one more day, which i asked the property directly, that is managed by Mr.Hari.
They were doing charity for needy people that's really appreciated.
The small cottages were very comfortable and set in beautiful gardens, so very peaceful atmosphere. It was only a short walk down a lane to arrive at the North Cliff Varkala where the cafes etc were located. The manager & his assistant were such pleasant people, who made sure that we had everything we wanted, they were so helpful.
Perfect holiday spot in Varkala!
The Suite room at Calaila Boutique Stay easily accommodated our group of four.
The quiet ambiance and the ease of accessing North Cliff for leisurely strolls added to the experience. A definite recommendation for anyone seeking a serene getaway.
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the host damini very friendly & helpful. The villa located very near to the cliff beach. Budget friendly and I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting varkala. The food is great, It’s homely and tastier.
We had a lovely stay at this hotel. The room was clean. This hotel is nearby the North Cliff. The manager was very kind and supportive. He arranged transportation for us & also allowed us to keep our luggage after check out.Highly recommend this hotel.
Beautiful view over South Cliff onto the beach and across the Arabian Sea from the private garden, delicious fresh juices and more from the Cafe next door and a peaceful location away from the hustle of the main Varkala beach (Papanasanam).
