Offering a garden and lake view, AshtamudiVillas is located in Kollam, 4.2 km from Kollam Railway Station and 4.5 km from Thangassery Light House.

Located on the banks of Ashtamudi Lake this was a real treat for our 4 nights in Kollam. The accommodation was in a terraced building with balcony for outside dining, a reasonably large bedroom and typical Indian shower / toilet wet room. The owner couldn't have been better, taking 4 of us out at night to 2 large local festivals which were amazing, this was topped off by a promotional film being shot in the grounds. A last treat was our visit to the local restaurant Meen by Chef Pillai, past winner of UK's Master Chef.

Featuring garden views, Yog Hostel Varkala offers accommodation with patio, around 200 metres from Odayam Beach. Boasting room service, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace.

The location of the Hostel is the best in Varkala (I think). The beach is about 2 mins by walk, and as it is on the northern side its less crowded. The cleaning is exceptional. Everything is clean here, the bathroom, the bed linen, the stairway even the small details as the light and fan switches. The bed is very comfortable also. From the terace - wich is very spacey - you have a bit of see view. The whole place is simple and stylish. Besides all the good things, the guys running the place: Suas and Dzoie are very friendly, and helping you in whatever situation. I would reccommend this accommodation to anyone coming here.

Sandra eco, a property with massage services, is located in Varkala, 1.1 km from Edava Beach, 2 km from Varkala Beach, as well as 48 km from Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple.

We loved Sandra Eco - this tranquil resort is nestled among lush gardens with private rooms. It is within minutes walk to Odayam Beach - which in itself is a fantastic clean beach great for swimming, walks or sun baking. Unni is a truely wonderful host and ensures you have the most memorable stay by checking in and providing assistance to any service or question you may have - from places to explore, travel arrangements or dining experiences to enjoy. The resort is extremely serene and quiet the rooms are a good size with western style ensuites and balconies. The gardens provide a wonderful opportunity for the native birds to forage - such an amazing sight to have the very small and delicate “honey eaters” hovering off your balcony. Sandhya provides a great breakfast and fresh fruit platter and we just loved little Uppi. We look forward to our next visit!

    While the property is only 5 acres, it is surrounded by the Ashtmudi lake. The view is nice and serene. It is in a private place. The Chef, Arun and the staff at the restaurant (forgetting names) were really nice and responsive.

    Very friendly staff. Helped us with the printout of nearby tourist attractions. Great location. Beach is across the street. However, swimming is not allowed due to dangerous water conditions.

    The hotel is built to exceptional standards and offers luxury accommodation at a very reasonable price. Kollam isn’t really on the tourist trail apart for its own backwaters that rival Alleppey so most people who stay at the hotel are Indian tourists or businessmen but I was treated with courtesy and respect, the food offered was excellent and the staff helpful

    Booked as a treat. It was recommended by my guide book and I wanted a hotel rather than a hostel this time. Felt luxury and is something my parents and grandparents would have felt comfortable and relaxed in. Great location so easy to direct autos and get around cheaply. Desk in room made it easy to work. Very convenient for business people. The best breakfast. AC included and laundry services (by the item) included.

    The location, view and quietness of this resort are fantastic. Our room with a private veranda overlooking the river was wonderful. We wish we would have had more time to stay here longer. The manager at the front desk went out of his way to help us with our onward travel itenary. We really appreciate his great service!
