- Emilia (9/5): -
- Virginie (6/5): - Que l'on me facture le prix de petites bières au prix de grands bières
- Michael (10/5): -
- mike (9/5): -
- mike (10/5): Fantastic, clean, great staff - Location No pool, but we were aware before arriving.
- jean (8/5): Lovely peaceful stay - Location great , friendly people
Good breakfast The sheets on arrival were a bit old so I had to change them - perhaps just use the new ones
- Shravan Bunny Dua (10/5): Warmth, home like relaxing stay - The Owner of the property was very humble and kind. His hospitality was exceptional.
We thank him from the bottom of our heart ❤️
- pinfield (7/5): - Marari beach villas are a minutes walk to the beach which has numerous eating places . A small shop is close by to get treats and staples . Staff were very friendly , helpful and informative and always close at hand. Breakfast was really good and varied and other meals available but a little pricy for what you got .They lent me a yoga mat and drinking water always available . I enjoyed my stay which was very comfortable and met some lovely people. My room was a little small and quite basic , but it was clean and quite cozy ..Nearest toilet and shower was two floors below.
- Lionel (9/5): - L'excellent acceuil, le petit déjeuner, la proximité de la plage (et quelle plage!) La taille des chambre single, le tarif de la buanderie.
- CAROLE (8/5): - L accueil, le jardin, le repas ,la plage
- Bernard (10/5): - Emplacement au milieu d'arbres et près de l'océan
- Laurence (9/5): - Proximité de la mer. Jardin très bien entretenu et très agréable pour se détendre dans hamac ou autres. 🧘♀️
Petit déjeuner très copieux et varié👍👏 qui change tous les matins. Le rooftop est très bien.
Taille de la chambre ++ avec balcon et ses équipements Le seul bemol : Lors du dîner du soir: une merveille de saveurs très voire trop copieux bravo à la cuisinière.👍👏, le prix par personne ne nous avait été donné .Il serait judicieux de faire une carte afin de savoir combien le client paiera le lendemain
- Frank Michael (8/5): - Siehe meine andere Bewertung Das leidige Preisthema bei den angebotenen Speisen. Angebots Tafel ohne Preis. Die Rechnung einfach überteuert
- Frank Michael (9/5): Eigentlich 10, aber halt nur eigentlich - Rundum so, wie auch schon in den anderen positiven Bewertungen beschrieben. Nah zum Meer, gutes abwechslungsreiches gutes Frühstück, tolle Anlage, der Besitzer ein super Typ, Bus Haltestelle nach Arthunkal oder Cherthala bzw nach Alappuzha ist um die Ecke. Kleine Shops bzw. Restaurants ebenso. Der Preis für das Einzelzimmer ist fair, allerdings ist die Toilette / Bad eine Etage tiefer. Also alles super bis auf: Siehe unten. Frank, Aufenthalt gesamt 6 Tage Habe mich am ersten Abend überzeugen lassen Fisch mit Beilagen im Haus selbst zu essen. Es war auch unbestritten lecker. Auf der Tafel im Hof wurde er als Fisch, Art Chef angepriesen. Ohne Preis, wie auch die übrigen sechs Gerichte. Habe erst am Abfahrtstag die Summe erfahren. 1600 Rupien. OK, es war Seer Fisch (2 Stücke, aber nicht unbedingt groß), in keinem anderen Restaurant der Umgebung war er so teuer. Ich war froh, hier nur einmal gegessen zu haben. Also, vorher fragen und dann entscheiden. Habe gedacht, dass ist nur bei den TukTuk Fahrern notwendig. Speisezafel ohne Preis, da hätten die Alarmglocken klingeln müssen. Fand das unfair. Geht besser auswärts essen.
- Patricia (7/5): -
- Melanie (10/5): Lovely homestay! - Absolutely beautiful and authentic family. Direct access to the beach.
The chef cooks really tasty dinner. The breakfast is made with so much love and care.
We feel blessed to spend our time here and loved it! Thanks so much.

- Mohamed (10/5): Exceptional - Raju and jini were so amazing treated us like family and gave exceptional service always looking forward to coming back here again
- Zacharia (7/5): Good - Location very good near to sea.
- Emilie (10/5): Exceptional - I loved to stay there, rooms are beautiful, designed in kerala style, place 8s cosy a'd thé food is fabulous!
- Keith (10/5): 10 day chill out - Location was spot on. A few yards from the beach. In safe area. Cafe on the beach at end of walk way. Three good restaurants in easy walk. Food at the Villa's excellent 👌. Different breakfast each day and the evening meals we had were supper, especially the morning we went to the fishing harbour and Raju bought fish, crab and prawns which were cooked for the evening meal 👍 We stayed 10 nights and could of easily stayed longer. Such a relaxed vibe. Sun beds on beach available at 300 rupees a day for two with umbrella. Despite reviews you can swim in the sea. Depending on the wave height.
The beach goes on forever in both directions. Great for early and late evening walks. All the family and staff we met were very friendly and it's clear Raju really cares about the area and community playing a key role in representing the local fishermens interests.
Will hopefully be back again for an extended stay. If you go don't rush by take time to chill. Nothing
- Catherine (9/5): Very nice staff and hosting all great ! - Very nice place beautiful and clean! Good breakfast and over all even a beautiful yoga shala!
- Catherine (9/5): Very nice stay will come again! - Staff accommodation food! All good :)
- Helen (9/5): Superb - Lovely welcome from the team.
Just a minute walk to the un spoilt quiet beach ,
Fabulous breakfast provided on the spacious ròof terrace.
Team were very good hosts and happy to answer any questions , book taxis etc.
A lovely couple of days of rest and relaxation. The sea provided many powerful waves which break with a fair amount of force Non swimmers or those with young children do be wary
- Asif (10/5): Exceptional -
- Prithpal (10/5): I could have stayed longer as I had such a lovely time. The host helped in every way possible, to make your stay comfort - The location was perfect and host was so helpful in every way.
- Charline (10/5): Exceptional - Marari Beach Villas is a lovely homestay in a pretty big building which has a nice 70ies style vibe. The hosts are super helpful and generous, I really loved the breakfast and dinner at the homestay. It is also very conveniently located, being only a stonethrow away from a nice stretch of the beach. Overall, this place was very inviting and I would come back!
- Stanzin (10/5): Great stay. Very safe and secure place for women travelling solo - The location and the breakfast was very traditional and great. The Husband and wife inning the place were very good host.

- Moreno (9/5): Superb - Friendly owners, clean place, next to the beach and good breakfast!
- Anna (10/5): Perfect place, perfect hospitality - Everything about this place is wonderful. The location is a one minute walk from the beach, the rooms are very spacious ans very lovely, the courtyard is a nice place for relaxation. The breakfast is served on the roof terrace, and everyday there is a different home cooked speciality from the Kerala tradition, fresh fruit, and western style toast with butter and jam. Fabulous. The owners are the most kind and helpful hosts, and they truly made me feel at home. Thank you so much for your kindness! I definitely give Marari Beach Villas 5 stars. Everything is just perfect!
- Colin (9/5): Great stay, lovely food and great hospitality - Great setting and the owners and team were very helpful
- Charlotte (9/5): Best place I’ve stayed throughout my time in India - Very good location, it is close to the beach! The people who work here are so welcoming and friendly and the breakfast is delicious!
- Samuel (10/5): Exceptional - They very nice people. And the place is amazing, very quiet and fullof nature. A clean beach is a few steps away from the villa.
- Simone (3/5): Misleading Information, terrible experience! - The fruit juice as soon as we arrived.
The place is spotless clean; beautiful garden but stops there.
All the info at Booking.com is misleading. The misleading information on Booking.com; our room supposed to be a Double Deluxe, nothing deluxe about it.
Advertised as having a tv with all the satelites channels, no tv!
Mini bar, NO mini bar. We payed the extra comparing with others accomodation for these little luxuries and had none.
Nowhere to but luggage but in the extra bed that came with room.
No tea, no coffe inside the room and we've been told we could do it upstairs. No way of making it.
NO SEA VIEW as advertised, you have to walk to the middle of the courtyard where all the other guest houses are to have a glimpse of the sea.
No...not worth the money.
The atitude of the owner even more irritable; money grabber!
We would have the deservedly discount for the misleading info if we cancelled our booking which we were not prepare to do. 🤦🤷♂️
Ask for free beers has my husband received for misleading info.
Ohh.... almost forgot to mention; do we really need to see 282 phots of people smileying ? And hardly any of rooms and bathrooms????
You better off go to another accomodation as we did.
Totally different experience.
- Moriniere (10/5): Exceptional - I had a fantastic stay, a warm welcome, right next to the beach with breakfast in the morning. a good atmosphere on site and even badminton during the day! I highly recommend
- Marja (10/5): Exceptional - Beautifull and well kept family place with garden and hammocks. Stayed there for x-mas and enjoyed their party with cake and toddy a lot! Raju and his family make you feel most welcome. Also liked the breakfast a lot. Short stroll to the beach were you can hire sunbed/umbrella and find 2 restaurants. The single room is quite small. But this was fine because outside on the terrace there is a big table where you can sit.
- Martin (10/5): Highly recommended - Amazing location close to beach. They made me feel like family. The breakfast was incredible and they even had a Christmas party while I was there and made me feel so welcome. Thank you. I highly recommend this place
- Atul (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jeffrey (10/5): Exceptional - A hidden gem. The family feel is excellent. The location is fantastic. A short stroll to an almost empty beach. Breakfast provided and dinner as well if you want. I had a small non AC room with shared facilities. Fine for me as I was travelling alone. The value for money is exceptional.
- Damaris (8/5): Very good - The attitude of the owners as well as the little karaoke they organized, such a great idea! As I told them it would have been more useful for me to know the exact direction from the first momwnt
- Govind (9/5): Superb - Owner was really helpful and hospitable. He went out his way and called his another hotelier friend to help me while visiting kakkathuruthu island.
Location of the property is spot on.
Really peaceful ambience.
Serene garden to chill in lazy afternoons.
Over all great experience.
- Vinod (10/5): VERY GOOD ,MEMORABLE STAY - VERY GOOD NOTHING

- Nandukrishnan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nandukrishnan (10/5): Exceptional - Food, stay location, ambience, cleanliness and hospitality Nothing
- Nandukrishnan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Shubhamgoel (7/5): Good -
- V (9/5): Superb -
- Sylvie (10/5): A quelques pas de la plage - Ambiance très familiale. Très bon déjeuner.
- Ricardo (8/5): Marari Beach - Nice stay right near Marari Beach. We opted for the A/C room but honestly the power of the unit is weak and we were pretty much left with just a ceiling fan. The breakfast was very substantial and cooked with local ingredients including the coffee which the owner has delivered from Munnar weekly. He even got us some local coconut wine which was wet interesting and scrumptious! Good people running a nice establishment! The beach was pretty rough so we were unable to swim.
- Girish (6/5): A good weekend stay - Enjoyable stay but costly for the services offered. No road to the place and no parking facility. You may take a chance driving on sand but chances are that you will get bogged down or burn ur clutch plate. No problem for a 4 wheeled drive.
Food is not good and served cold.
Lovely and friendly owners all out to help and make your stay comfortable.
Thanks to both but attending a course on hospitality management would help in bringing professionalism
The Beach is neat, clean , lovely and never ending stretch of white sand
- Nicole (8/5): Hôtel bien placé, propre . Joli jardin . - Repas moyens .
- Verified traveler (6/5): Hôtel correct mais lieu peu attractif - Hôtel moyen, très bon petit déjeuner et personnel très aimable. Mais en dehors de la plage très médiocre rien dans les environs, pas même de restaurant. (Chambre sans TV)
