Beachfront holiday rentals in Kerala

Beautiful villa right next to the beach.

We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay in Varkala. Ocean front views with a beautiful property that had the most amazing balcony overlooking the cliffs. We especially loved Raju, the property dog. He made us feel safe and was always happy to see us when we returned from our outings. The property is 2 min from the ocean and is walkable to other parts of Varkala cliffs. The A/C and amenities are as described! We plan on coming back next year and would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful spot.

Extremely beautiful stay, nicely decorated, with lights. Wonderful access to the beach. Romantic beach chairs, pretty hammock and swing. The sea is visible from the bed too. The eating places are a little far from this location but it’s worth having the peace and quiet. The beach is also relatively secluded, and very clean and beautiful. House is kept clean. The caretaker is good. The breakfast was quite delayed on the first day as he brings it from far, it was also cold, maybe there was problem while bringing. Next day he gave us very tasty breakfast hot and on time.

Mind blowing view of the private beach . Had great fun with friends beach access is so good . The sunset from the garden was amazing

We stayed at Mavila Krishnan's beach house for three days. The stay was excellent! Walkable distance to the clean, pristine Kappad beach. The beach villa is exactly matching the photos. It was very artistically designed. Peaceful and happy vibes! Thank you Mavila Krishnan for quick communication and hospitality. Tek, Deepa and Sapna were very good. We had great dinner, lunch and breakfast. Would love to visit again! Very happy new year 2024!!

had an amazing stay at Sherly's , location is very peaceful, right next to sea, had amazing time with my wife. Our caretaker Julaj was very helpful and cooperative in making our stay wonderful.

We had a lovely stay.. The place was amazing very friendly wish we could have stayed longer .. Plenty of space lot of activities near by .. It’s worth recommending and a second trip..

We had an amazing stay at Deja Blu for my wedding! The house is designed in a beautiful Greek-style architecture, which was really cool to see—and we got some incredible wedding photos! Overall, we had a great time with family. Sara was an amazing host, always friendly and open for a little chitchat. Last but not least, the beach view was surreal, making it one of the best stays I’ve ever had.

The Cabana was exactly as described. It is right on the beach and you have a private entry to it. The pool was amazing and overlooks the beach- it was lovely to watch sunset from here. The host was very responsive and was helpful in accommodating our large group. They even arranged home cooked catered food for us which was very tasty and took the stress out of ordering from restaurant. Will recommend 100%

Very nice place at an amazing location. The view of the beach and it's proximity from the house enhances the experience.

The suite was exceptional, providing a peaceful and relaxing holiday experience. The room's appearance precisely matched the provided photographs. The staff were consistently friendly, polite, and readily available to assist with any needs. Getting to Edava Beach was easy from the property. The only downside was some drunk people hanging around the entrance and staring which was a bit annoying when we walked to the beach.

This was a true gem! The staff were incredibly helpful and responsive to any queries or requests. One of our family had mobility issues and we were provided with a wonderful wheel chair that was perfect to move around the property. It was lovely having g two outdoor spaces that were covered to enjoy the beautiful scenery. There was some furniture that is a bit dated and in need of replacement in one of the rooms, but the beds were excellent and the bathrooms were beautifully appointed. The location was away from the hustle and bustle of the more touristy areas. There was a beach close by with hardly anyone on it, almost like having a private beach! Breakfast was provided, food was great! Nothing was too much trouble for the staff Highly recommend this for individuals as well as for larger groups

how can I start.. Vinod ji and his family are super lovely and good took care of me like I am a family member. Krishna arranged about things to do , yoga session which was really great guru , took me to temple and famous ashram, checked on me always if I want anything. Shanmukha took care about got all the fresh seafood that I requested and made sure I wasn't felt left alone because I travelled alone. He also made the best masala chai in Kerala. Vinod ji was the one who answered me every messages promptly and took good care of any requests. And last but not least my star Yashodha. She cooks amazing food like magic. I will always miss her food. I wish I could take her home with me. 😊 😁

Beautiful 1950’s villa with a team of house staff led by Mr Cherian, who took care of everything including delivering amazing food from the sister hotel Eighth Bastion. Sumptuous breakfasts were provided at the hotel, or we could make our own with the provisions supplied (even our fussy 6 year old enjoyed the cornflakes and banana cake). Had a wonderful staycation, with daily music lessons at the Kerala Kathakali centre.

Good experience! Clean, comfortable, and well-located. The host was reachable all of the time. Caretaker rajan ji is very helpful and communicative. Would like to book again.

The owners are incredible! I booked this stay for my parents from the US, and they experienced exceptional warmth and hospitality. The hosts treated them like family, helping with food, rides, guidance, and heartfelt conversations. Their kindness made the trip truly special. I’m so grateful for everything they did—highly recommend!

The place was excellent, the view was second to none! Requesting Feroz to fry up some massive prawn and seafood was one of our highlights….highly recommend staying at the Outrigger!!!

Babu's property is located extremely close to the cliff, making communication quite easy. Everything was at a walkable distance. The room was also quite good with all necessary amenities. The host and caretakers were extremely helpful, helping us out with anything we needed. They also have bikes for rent, which helped us in exploring Varkala. The property itself had a wonderful charm to it, making the stay an unique experience. I would definitely recommend this property for anyone travelling to Varkala.

Superb location, pristine house- just like pics the beach is stone throw away. The host is extremely friendly, tried to align to all our requests. Would recommend & would be happy to be back again

We had a wonderful time at the villa, living to the sound of ocean waves. Especially because we were celebrating our brother and sister in law's wedding, it was lovely to see the place decorated for them. Robin was so helpful, thank you very much!

The Anchor House is certainly a rare gem. Beautifully made and with a stunning view, it’s a perfect getaway from city life - it’s also a peaceful holiday spot for a group of friends on family (in my case, a cousins’ retreat). Shaji, the caretaker, is extremely helpful and just a call away. He also brings excellent home-cooked breakfasts. We’ll definitely come back to this property. Thank you for having us!
