Abhi's cafe avaduthura kovalam is located in Kovalam, just 8 miles from Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple and 10 miles from Napier Museum. With quiet street views, this accommodation features a terrace.

My stay at Abhi’s exceeded my expectations and I was given a very warm welcome and shown to my room which was huge with big windows, cool fans and air conditioning which I rarely used as there was a nice cross breeze with the windows open. I liked that there were tea or coffee making facilities in my room and a small fridge. I felt very safe there and no request was ever too much. The cafe is lovely, very welcoming and accommodating. The breakfasts were the best homemade Indian breakfasts! Mani was always with a smile! Loved the homey feel of this place and the cafe was always very busy so word is out the food is fab! Cute little finches and sweet dogs as well! Can’t wait to return!

    Loved the stay in Santa Maria Kovalam. Not only it's value for money but also such lovely hosts and perfect location from beach. Any one travelling around it's worthy to stay here. Beach just a few steps. Host Siraj was a wonderful friend. And mind-blowing art works are going on for the property by Appu.

    Shida was a lovely hostess - communication was excellent, and she was very helpful - We enjoyed some interesting conversations. Shida told us about local events , such as the festival in the nearby temple. She helped us and other guests with travel arrangements. Her staff were also kind and helpful. The location was good - slightly away from the busy seafront which I liked. We felt very safe and that our room was secure. It was a relaxing and happy stay.
