Anitha's Garden Stay

Location is good,

They haven't mention in booking.com about non AC room, they mentioned it's standered room, the word standerd room doesn't mean that it's non AC. They have to mention everything clearly to the customer .

very well located confortable room very welcoming and available

It is a nice place with beautiful garden. The rooms are clean and very well-thought with chairs inside & on the balcony and with a lot of space to put the luggage. The balcony had a place to hang the clothes and the fan, which made it very nice to sit outside. The bed is very comfortable and the bathroom was clean with hot shower pressure. The staff was also quite friendly but could not speak English at all (only the manager could). They allowed us to use the room and to take a shower at the evening before our departure (we had a night flight), which was so kind and nice.

Nothing special, we were lucky that it was a shoulder season and we were the only guests there.

Polite and helpful staff

I felt at home at Anitha's and well taken care of. The staff were kind and attentive and Yousef and Anitha were gracious hosts. I appreciated having a private balcony and listening to the birds sing. Complimentary breakfast was good and restaurant staff friendly. I finally found a home away from home in Kovalam.

Internet was slow.

I very much enjoyed my stay at Anitha's! The combination of staff, location, comfort, room facilities, reliable wifi, etc. made my 6-day stay a pleasure. Yousef manages this hotel very competently and will solve any problems almost instantly. He is a good person who is willing to help you, and is very knowledgeable. Anitha is also there quite frequently and is a charming woman who will look after you. The hotel is within easy walking distance of everything, including the beach, restaurants, etc. As for restaurants, be certain to try Anitha's Restaurant for good food and good service. The rooms are spacious with lovely balconies and comfortable beds. The wifi functioned well during all six days that I was there. You will enjoy your stay here.

The welcome is warm and caring. Staff were attentive to needs. Bedroom, bathroom and balcony spacious although the plumbing is starting to show its age and I would have appreciated running warm water. Breakfast on the garden terrace was excellent. I can recommend a stay at Anita's in Kovalam.

I felt extremely comfortable in my room which was equipped with a refrigerant marble floor and a gorgeous balcony. Had a "jungle" in front of me with exciting sounds of birds and other animals and the noise of the sea. AC was not necessary, the fan was adequate to me. Just 1 minute walk to the beach! Anitha and Yussuf who manage this property are very friendly and helpful people, they could answer any questions I had. If I ever will return to this picturesque Kovalam Beach (Lighthouse Beach), I will ask first for a room at Anitha's Garden Stay.

WLAN was without extra costs, but it was slow. For me, a mollycoddle, the water in the shower could have been a little, little warmer ... ;-)

The area is very quiet and very close to the beach.

Nothing major to report.
