We loved everything. This homestay is a real gem. The family who owns it is so helpful and kind. Asok booked all our trains for us on our Kerala trip and printed me copies. Even though breakfast wasn't part of our booking, we got a delicious home cooked breakfast each morning. Our room was very spacious and clean. The homestay is located on a quiet lane, away from the hectic streets of Trivandrum, yet close enough to walk to Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple and to restaurants etc. (we recommend trying Agrahaara Vegetarian restaurant 5 min away, even though we aren't Vegetarian the food was delicious and a very low price). I highly recommend staying at this homestay, you won't find a better choice in Trivandrum!!! Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay. Senthil & Aswathy are great hosts with a big smile on their faces everytime you see them. A very genuine couple. The owners are very sweet. They made us feel very welcomed since our booking. They let us check in early & also offered us home cooked meals which was delicious. They property is very well maintained and their garden is beautiful. The rooms, bathroom the kitchen and the hall they are so nicely decorated. It just lifts up your spirits the moment you walk in. We would love to come back again. Thank you so much. They made our trip unforgettable.

We loved the location as we'd both arrived in India from very busy lives and the calm and rural outlook at this time of year was simply stunning. From the balcony outside our room we experienced mongooses playing, squirrels and a woodpecker (?) in the coconut palms, fishing boat lights out to sea, and the call to prayer from the mosque at the bottom of the hill beside the beach. The facilities were basic and not the cleanest, but the bedding was clean and the shower good which is all that is required. There is a restaurant beside the guesthouse with an extensive menu, but being off season not everything was available. We had freshly squeezed fruit juices, and ate elsewhere. Once you get your bearings, it is an easy and safe walk both day and night up the dirt road to a main road with many food options. We also discovered the main tourist beach with many options and also lots of hawkers. This place is very definitely for people who are physically able, as getting to it involves some walking on uneven terrain and up/down a hill depending on which direction you come from. The offer to contact the caretaker was made in advance and we didn't take advantage of that until our taxi driver refused to travel any further - I recommend calling first! We would have gone to the entrance mosque side instead of the Google maps suggestion. There is someone to carry your bag. Ensure you have mosquito repellent at this time of year if you want to sit outside.
