    Nothing!

    The property was truly stunning! The fairy lights added such a magical touch, and the pool was the perfect way to cool off after a warm day of exploring. Everything was perfect, but what made it extra special was how warm and welcoming Shibu and Sini were - always smiling and incredibly helpful, and the food … absaloutely delicious!

    Nothing, really good place to stay

    Really good homestay and perfect location if you want to be on the edge of town and a bit quieter. Clean and also really helpful staff. The pool is also nice and relaxing

    The swimming pool set in a lovely garden was an absolute bonus and a rare find. The choices for breakfast were rich and varied, choices of cereals, fruits, pancakes and so much more. We were made to feel very much at home by Alan, Suni and Shibu who were wonderful hosts with gorgeous smiles. The location is safe and peaceful. So glad we chose this placement to stay.

    Nothing. All was great.

    Wonderful place to stay, beautiful garden with good swimming pool, very clean. Simi and Shibu were lovely hosts. Very attentive. Gave us some good meals and even sang to us one evening. Alan was also a great host. Went out of his way to take us round the village and introduced us to people, organised a fantastic trip on the backwaters and helped us get on the train when we left. We had a great time and can’t praise it highly enough.

    The ambience, the absolute beauty of the garden and building, the incredibly helpful, friendly, supportive and fun team made this week an extraordinarily special one for us. We experienced fabulous excursions and places thanks to the support of the team. Fabulous food too! There are no fools at 'Fool's Paradise '..but it is Paradise!

    The stay was very nice, Sini, Shibu were very welcoming and nice. The two are wonderful, friendly people, we felt like home. The breakfast was very tasty and the best we've had while travelling. We could always say what we need. We had an amazing stay. We will never forget it. Thank you again! And the fool is actually really nice;)

    One of the best stays I have ever had, very clean property in a secluded place, peaceful environment. Helping and friendly staff, the welcome drink tea and snacks were all home made and hygienic. Sunny George and Jibin sahu were very friendly and made us feel at home. We were constantly checked upon for any help and guidance, We weren't even charged extra for extending the checkout, the swimming pool was maintained well, and the beach is just a few steps away from thumpoly beach. Very happy and satisfied with the stay.

    The weather and it's not a problem with the resort :)

    It's a nice remote place close to the beach.we went during summer and can't expect muh a pleasing weather. We took the 3 rooms on the first floor and has a good time. Our pet popaye also enjoyed the stay The beach close to the resort is not at all crowded. It's better to go the beach as a group The main beach is just 2.5 kms from the place

    The bathroom is ok but needs a lillte maintenance.

    We had a really good time at Fool's Paradise. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful so we always felt comfortable and welcome. We got good tips and recommendations from Sunny about where to eat and where to go.

    They have the basics of a nice place, but need some work

    Given all the other reviews were so good, I was expecting a lot, but it felt in many ways that I was the first person to ever stay there, there were so many little niggles. There were language issues with the house keepers (who were friendly, but only spoke basic very English), and issues with payment (bring cash!!!). The pool just had a few cheap plastic seats, no deck chairs, no pool towels - foreigners going to a beach hotel want to lie by the pool! There was a hammock with a big hole in - remove, replace or repair please! Breakfast was "do you want chapatis"...well, I don't know, what are the other options!? A menu is needed. The hotel is quite remote, so you have to get a cab or walk a long way to get anything. It would be great if there was some proactive assistance to order food maybe, a drinks fridge would be excellent. The second night there was a group of rowdy guys who played loud music until I went downstairs at midnight to tell them to shut up. Overall, it was frustrating that with (quite a few) little touches, it could be really nice, but as it is, I wouldn't go back.

    The hotel is very close to the beach (there is NO infrastructure at the beach, nothing, just sand). I was able to check in early, which was great. Upstairs terrace was very nice, pleasant place to sit and work. Garden lighting is nice.
