Resort holiday rentals in South India

The house is the same in the photos. The biggest advantage is the location, right on the beach. The cottages are at the end of a large beach in agonda so it's quiet and secluded. The restaurant run by the host offers delicious food with an amazing view of the sea, sunsets and the sound of the waves. If I were to go back to agonda, I would definitely stay here :)

Samith was extremely helpful and responsive. The hotel is beautiful and we chose to stay in the stylish wooden beach chalets. As an eco lodge, there is no air conditioning but the fans and chalets were perfectly cool. There is also no heated water but so the showers are warmer in the afternoon on a hot day but cold all day if it’s a cloudy day! Kalpitiya is very windy, and therefore, a great destination for kite surfing which was really fun, even for a beginner! It is a great alternative if you want some peace and quiet. The food was fantastic, especially if you happen to be there for their bbq nights which has seasonal produce including fresh fish, squid, prawns, chicken etc. The only slight criticism is that some stretches of beach are littered with plastic, which is common to other parts of Sri Lanka, although it is clear that the hotel has made efforts to go green and I would thoroughly recommend it!

Rajwardhan's farm is a huge property, and ideal for those who are seeking serenity. He along with his staff are super hospitable and make sure your are having a good time. Its a thoughtfully planned and managed place, clean and comfortable rooms, beautiful villa and landscaping, yummy food and excellent service. Waking up to Chirping of birds, spotting peacocks, strolling around the farm, and the River around the farm are some of the super awesome experiences. For agro enthusiast they have many varieties of crops and also a hydrophonics section. There is no/ limited mobile network coverage there...a boon in disguise.

fantastic experience specially liked the Balcony attached with room....it was fun place to be...nice rooms....good service we even extended our stay

This is a fabulous place right off the beaten track. Not close to any restaurants but you don’t need to worry as the food they serve in house is OFF the scale good. Best food we’ve eaten. Loads of temples and elephants a short rickshaw driveway. And you can swim in the river which has a beach. Raja the host was very informative and helpful.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Mandrem, and I must say it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. From the moment I walked through the doors, the staff went above and beyond to make my stay memorable.

This place is AMAZING. Stunning location on the water, incredible cheap food and massive portions, lovely staff, the comfiest beds, gorgeous free toiletries, beautiful pool. They even have an onsite shop where they offer to tailor what you buy! Best place we stayed in Kerala.

What can I say?? This is one of the most relaxing places we have stayed in and we find ourselves coming back time and time again.The view is beautiful and nothing is too much trouble as far as pleasing guests is concerned. The food in the restuarant is excellent and there are other restaurants nearby. The room is spacious and comfortable and the Aircon is a blessing. Altogether a heavenly experience, there is no other way to describe this.

Deafening Silence is all that prevails! The only noise that may probably break the stillness of your profound meditation would be the chirpy hummingbirds or the whispering leaves in the refreshing cool breeze... ‘Humming Breeze’, earlier known by the name ‘Humming Birds’ is a sprawling 6-acre thickly wooded hillside property overlooking the magnificent Brahmagiri Mountain range. Situated about 6km west of Mananthawady town on Kannur road easily accessible by a motorable road, your home away from home is a delight for anyone who loves admiring nature in stillness. The property has a numerous variety of fruit-bearing trees and flowers carefully brought and nurtured by these wonderful nature-loving Property owners. The uniqueness of this resort building is its extremely spacious construction, utilizing some of the exotic heritage woodwork from across the Malabar region and some of the windows and doors in its construction were over 200 years old. My wife and I stayed here for 7 nights and I specifically wanted to try out a Work-from-Anywhere protocol on a trial basis. The double room that I stayed was very modern, spacious, airy, and had a breathtaking view of the Brahmagiri Mountain ranges. The property had great Wi-Fi connectivity and I did not miss even a single video call due to any bandwidth issues. Very homely simple Kerala Breakfast was served as part of the package, and the rest of the meals we cooked when we got time in their fully equipped industrial kitchen. The owners of the property were very responsive and were extremely supportive of our needs. Vipin the caretaker for the property was also very helpful, and was available every time we needed any assistance. It was a dreamlike experience to work and enjoy a lovely holiday at the same time, and I would highly recommend everyone to try out this experience at least once!

very good place

We had an amazing time at this property! It’s literally a piece of Bali that you can experience in Andaman. The staff, service and food all are fantastic! It has a secret beach which is at a 15 minute hike from the property. It’s an absolutely stunning beach and completely un crowded! The only drawback of this place is the location. It is really far from the mainland and there are literally no shops or restaurants nearby at all. It is very inconvenient and expensive if you need to go the mainland or to any sightseeing places as taxis or autos charge higher prices due to the location and bad road. Other than that, if you are only going to stay inside the villa, it is worth every penny!

Overall had a great experience, the location of the property is just perfect for a weekend get away, the host was good, and the care taker Kashi was very friendly and provided great service.

This place is so awesome you should plan a trip to Varkala just to enjoy this resort - the food, the staff, the location, the grounds -- amazing!

it's beautiful place

The 4 studio room apartment was spacious enough for our group of 10, and the shared swimming pool was a nice bonus. Arambol beach was a walking distance away where we spent a good time watching sunset, also Querim caves were 15 minutes drive away from this resort. Overall situated at the right juncture with sufficient amneties.

It was the absolute best stay ever!!! The location is so peaceful and beautiful and yet so close to everything that’s happening around. The staff is beyond kind and helpful and the room itself makes you feel so comfortable and right at home. I have nothing to complain and would come again immediately!

It was a lovely stay at the resort. The location is a bit remote, but super nice. Unfortunately, you can't work there because the internet is too weak there, which is why we unfortunately had to leave earlier. If you want to relax there and at the same time feel at home, then this is just the place to be. The staff is incredibly friendly, courteous and helpful. For this reason alone, we will visit again. It's just the right destination to relax and unwind.

Wonderful place to stay.. had a great time.. The amenities were good, staff is helpful, breakfast was delicious and best part is it is a beach side property. Will surely get back next time as well!!

The resort is beautiful with good amenities. The food is amazing, one must try the items from the menu. Great taste, from the main course to sweet everything was worth trying. The breakfast was well served with a variety of cuisine.Their staff is polite and approachable. At every point, from Reception, Housekeeping, Restaurant, Spa, travel desk staff did a wonderful job.Though there is a little language barrier for North Indians, it was manageable as the staff was quite accommodating.They have a private beach around 15 minutes away, and pick and drop service is available from the resort. Shree Jagannath Puri temple is apprx 8 km away. If traveling by flight, train, or bus, one must plan accordingly as the resort is in the outskirts, 8 km before Puri. Though we booked a cab, if one prefers an auto, I heard that there are autos available right outside the resort as it is on the main road. The resort is surrounded by lots of greenery and has multiple garden areas. There is a poolside bar.

Awesome stay with stunning views from the rooms. Their continental food and buffet spread is fantastic. All activities like Cultural programmes ( Kuchipudi) , cooking classes in the evening, campfire and their high tea with a view were very thoughtful and much appreciative. Their swimming pool is neat and outside candle light dinner spot was good though couldn’t try as it needs to be pre booked before arrival. Courteous staffs especially Harish, Aleena and Maya in the reception were very helpful throughout the stay, they were kind and easily approachable. Room service were prompt and very reliable anytime. Overall a pleasant stay at Mountain courtyard and very memorable moments .

The best hospitality, very calm and soothing place, friendly staff and the breakfast and tea was soothing. Mr.Rajan and Rajgopal were responsive, looking forward to visiting again!!
