Popular points of interest near the accommodation include Varkala Beach, Odayam Beach and Aaliyirakkm Beach. The nearest airport is Thiruvananthapuram International, 41 km from Nirrvaan homestay, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service.

Best accommodation, clean and nice, good beds and a balcony with evening sun. Finest and most loving host Rekha, where the kindness and care have no limits, she fixes everything with great warmth and love. Two wonderful sons, eldest son was so incredibly helpful and kind. The food was traditional from Kerala, cooked by the ever-smiling Renjini. Wonderful food with new and exciting strong flavors. The accommodation is located in a quiet spot just a few minutes walk from the cliff and beach. Will be coming back to this lovely family in November. Many thanks, highly recommended.

Set within a few steps of Aaliyirakkm Beach and 700 metres of Varkala Beach, Villa Jacaranda offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Varkala. This beachfront property offers access to a balcony. The accommodation provides airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available.

The only thing I can think about this place is why I didn’t stay longer! Ajay has built this beautiful house, 22 years ago, immersed in colors, patterns and lots of flowers. The place is very quiet and special, perfect to wind down your mind. The breakfast is the best I’ve had in India so far, I’ll be dreaming about that bowl of fruits for a very long time. The staff serving the breakfast was so kind and smiled so much that your morning would get immediately better. The location is perfect, far enough from the buzz of the North Cliff, and less than 5 minutes on foot from the beach.

Featuring a garden and free Wi-Fi access throughout, Mango Villa offers rooms in Varkala, a 5-minute walk from the beachfront.

With a balcony, each room has a private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries. Some rooms have air conditioning.

A sIster and brother pair own and manage the place and are wonderful hosts. I am a lone woman traveler and I felt safe and secure in the location, they provided me with great info on where to go, where to eat, procuring tuk tuk ( uber doesn't operate in this town because of a union) Room and balcony more spacious than expected and were super clean and tidy. This was a great value for such a nice stay. They even do room service meals with advance notice, food is good and also value priced. Will stay here again.

    Lovely location right on the beach, perfect for sunsets. Not so many people around as the Cliffs areas, which are a 20 minute walk along the beach (bring a torch as it is not well lit). Breakfast was decent. Friendly staff. Arranged us transfers that went perfectly at a good price. Bed was comfortable. It was clean. Excellent value overall. Room door was cool with an ornate lockable bolt, writing this from a 5 star hotel that has a fake version of the same.

    We loved our stay at Kerala Cottage. The location is perfect, you step out the cottage and you’re 10 steps from a beautiful beach, and stunningly warm ocean. It was great being just far enough from Varkala cliff to have serenity but also east access to all the restaurants and facilities. The major upside was the lack of others on the beach and not having to climb a cliff after a swim. All the staff and management couldn’t help us too much, it was a great stay with great breakfasts!

    The best stay in Varkala. Quite and peaceful with the gorgeous view to the ocean!!! The bedrooms are very new and designed with a great taste! The garden is absolutely magnificent as well as the beach. Almost no people on the beach during my stay and the beach itself is for my taste mich better and quieter than in Varkala.

    A beautiful place just 50 metres to the beach. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. There is a tasty restaurant right on the beach so you can have breakfast looking out over the ocean. All of the staff were extremely accommodating and friendly. Highly recommended.

    We loved our stay at Maadathil cottages so much that we extended for an extra two nights! They were full so we were put in the Maadathil beach resort, just next door and had an even better view! The location is amazing, right on the beach and just a walk into Varkala cliff. The menu is great with many options, also it’s worth trying Babu farm for fish just a 5 minute walk away. The staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating. Overall we loved our stay and will be back.
