There’s crazy traffic on the roads - no rules, no traffic lights (maybe just one!), yet no crashes, no accidents, and no pedestrians getting run over! 🤪 There are lots good fish restaurants, but sanitation is still questionable.

Compared to Varkala I found it easy.

Compared to Varkala I found it easy. It’s well geared-up for Europeans and the shopping is great. However, it’s a small place so ten days was far too long for me to be there. On the whole it is cheaper than Varkala and although dangerous for swimming, it is manageable, unlike Varkala where I was unable to actually swim for five days

2 or 3 days is enough for a short break in the beach area as its quite small.Nice restaurants and shops,beach and sea clear.Sun loungers and parasols cheap for the day .Street sellers can be pushy and too many but they just trying to get business.

Good place to visit but stay in the hotels on the main road.

Good place to visit but stay in the hotels on the main road. Enjoy sea food in the restaurants on the beach. The beach needs clean up of rubbish. The best place to eat was Lonely Planet and Jeevan restaurant for beer and food.

Kovalam is a nice beach.

Kovalam is a nice beach. I had visited this place almost 40 yrs back as a kid but this time was a difference experience altogether. It is great if you are able to hire a car here and then move around. The experience from lighthouse on the lighthouse beach is something unique. The beach itself is nice and clean and you do get beds at INR 100 where you can rest and put your clothes while you take a small dip in the sea. In case you are looking for vegetarian food, the options are less but not non-existent. Overall a very nice stay.

Ganesh Ayurveda Bed and Breakfast was a lovely relaxing hotel set in the beautiful Kerala countryside just outside Kovalam. Murugan, our host, was very welcoming and attentive and did all that he could to make it an enjoyable healthy holiday. He arranged some amazing Ayurveda treatments for my partner and myself, and it was good to swim in the pool and relax in the sun! Breakfast was hearty and delicious, fruit followed by dosa, with choice of drinks. Many thanks for a wonderful holiday.

Brilliant place to stay in Kovalam. Probably the best hotel due to the facilities and excellent location for walking into lighthouse beach restaurants, shops etc. Staff, food, rooms, cleanliness, swimming pool, totally great. We didn’t do the Ayurveda treatments but did do a yoga class. The Ayurveda appeared to be excellent but can’t vouch for this personally.

The best location to stay when visiting Kovalam is a resort where you can walk to Lighthouse Beach and even see the top of the lighthouse from your room. You can also easily visit the lighthouse from the beach. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is peaceful without any hustle and bustle.
