We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The location was excellent, and the hotel itself was lovely.

I stayed in Varkala for 3 nights. This was mainly due to train timings. 2 nights would’ve been enough. I did a yoga class and auryvedic massage on the last day this would have been better in the second day.
What I did find slightly confusing was the references to North & South Cliff whereas I think South Cliff was an extension of the cliff walk - starting with North cliff.
Plenty of choice for food although a particular favourite was Sun Francisco - the Veg Tali was delicious and good value for money.

Varkala beach is busy very busy on weekends with lots of Indian tourists. The cliff side walk has lots of restaurants and shops. We found the beach a bit rough with the waves but beyond the waves it was calm . The stairs to the beach can be challenging if you have knee issues . It’s has a good atmosphere but we prefer less touristy places hence staying at Odayam each area .

Touristic place.
Touristic place. So lots of restaurants with a large variety of meals, bars, shops, ressorts, loud music, massage.
Best restaurant is Clafouti for me.
Nice beaches, big temple.
This is a tourist destination. India' s soul not there. Crowdy, noisy, pushy salesmen, beggers, stray dogs.
Pretty dirty environment cause of littering.
2 to 3 days stay is enough.

AS OF ME, IT'S NOT SUITABLE FOR THE FAMILY TRAVELLERS, ITS UNSAFE TO ALLOW THE CHILDRENS TO PLAY IN THE SEA SOUR IT HAS DEEPER EVEN IN THE SEA SOUR, BEACH NEAR AREA HAS VERY NARROW ROADS & COJUSTED. I FELT THE CHERAI BEACH IS FAR BETTER THAN THE VARKALA.

Beautiful views from the cliffs, plenty of beaches, option to learn surfing (!), good food, and the most gorgeous mangrove/backwaters (30 mins away).... that's Varakala in nutshell. Lovely cliffside walks with breaks for some ice cream at Scoopy or a whole Israeli breakfast(yummmm) at Buddha Bar. We loved ABBA for all other hunger pangs. Having a rented scooter to go around the places away from the cliffs helps, but there were plenty of Autos as well.

Its took travel time is too far, Kerala roads are not good.
Its took travel time is too far, Kerala roads are not good. Many people not follow traffic rules. Really upset to road travel to Kerala. Many sign boards are shown only in Malayalam Language, we struggled with read.
Except that places are really good and peoples also very friendly.
Highly recommend!! Beautiful hostel, and great relaxed vibe, kept spotlessly clean and with great facilities including a communal kitchen, rooftop social area with yoga mats, comfy seating, ping pong , outdoor social area. Options for AC or fan dorms. Very close to Varkala beach and cliff markets. Great local options for delicious and budget friendly meals close by or prepared by the hostel staff. Staff go out of their way to help with anything you need - scooty rental , recommendations etc
This has to be one of the best beach stays I've had. Clean room, spacious bathroom, the breakfast nook above the reception area has a lovely view. The staff was the sweetest and the most prompt. The beach is within walking distance and the area is serene and perfect for those who prefer less crowd. The resort is at quite a distance from the busy North Cliff area that is packed with cafes, shops and hotels but one can do a small hike to go to the other side or just take an auto,
Skyframe Villa, operated by Skyframe Beach Resort, is a calm homestay situated on the quiet Southern Cliff. It features several garden view rooms and provides easy beach access through the well-kept stairs of the Skyframe Beach Resort, positioned a few meters away. Guests have access to the Skyframe Beach Resort's ocean-facing garden. The staff is efficient and friendly, contributing to a positive atmosphere. I stayed there for four satisfactory nights.
- location was excellent, 2 minutes to the beach, shops and restaurants, but set a little back from the main drag along the clifftop. V quiet and peaceful.
- room was lovely and bathroom was very nice and bright.
- lovely decoration of the room
- A/C was wonderful and very much needed from the heat in Varkala
- Saji was very welcoming, laid back and friendly
- Saji cooked our breakfast to order, lovely omelettes and fresh fruit and coffee.
Location 10/10 - 1 min walk from Varakala cliff
Room 6/10 : basic room with not very hotel like beds but not bad either. It was okayish.
Staff : 10/10 very cordial, friendly. 100/10 for blacky, the dog they have on the property 🥹
There is no TV, the charging ports aren't near the bed, toilet clogs every time you flush.
Had a good stay overall. But kinda expensive if it's not for the location, I wouldn't pay 3K a night to stay here
Friendly and personable staff helped us with questions, advice and arranging transport. The location is a good choice in the Varkala area, as it is more relaxed and less touristic than north cliff. Odayam beach is also nicer for swimming. Breakfast was more western style but delicious, generous and fresh with lots of choices including fruit and fresh juices. Our room was simple and cool with a nice day need to lounge on the porch.
Beautifully thought out rooms each with their own balcony, perfect for breakfasting, reading, contemplating away from the bustle of Indian streets. A short walk from Varkala beach - 10 mins form the main cliff-top tourist restaurants and souvenir shops. Very friendly staff and owner - helpful researching and sorting our onward connections. Would definitely recommend.
The location of the property is amazing. Beach is 100m walk. The beach is clean and the cliff is very close. Staff is very polite and helpful. Abhijeet helped us to rent scooty as well as he arranged booking for kayaking. Place is very quite all you can hear is the ocean. If I ever visit varkala again I will stay at Madathil only.
The location/ocean open view/landscape is amazing, fabulous… In front of the beach although the access is not easy (just need to go down the long stairs, down the cliff, to reach the beach, which is also amazing and big enough for your privacy. Cleaning happens upon request. Great A/C
The dorms here are a great place to stay as a solo traveler and you never feel like leaving this place...
The property with an amazing view of Arabian Sea, is located just 200 meters from the Varkala cliff and all the cafés are easily accessible at walking distance.
Good, decent room...
close by to the north cliff region in fact it is walkable distance.
Special mention to yasir(property owner) helped us in hiring the two wheeler and guiding us to the right visiting places as this was our first time to Varkala.....
Our room was big enough and clean. The bed was pretty big and comfy as well. There's a nice balcony where you can chill. There's a kitchen where you can cook if you like to. Very close to the cliff area, to the restaurants and shops. The beach is nearby.

It's a beautiful location and you have a shortcut to the north cliff beach .
The hospitality was top notch and my stay was very comfortable.
Parking is also hastle free.
The property is also pet friendly it seems .
Thank you very much.
Gorgeous room with a lovely and spacious balcony. Good location for getting to the main strip on the north cliffs and nice and quiet at night. The hosts were also super helpful and friendly. A great base for exploring Varkala.
Quiet location on the beach but still only few minutes walk away from Varkala cliff area. Delicious local food. The team was very helpful and always at our service. The facility is actually bigger than appears on the picture.
best place in varkala and trivandrum. good vibes from the beach and other attractions. i played all the musical instruments in the common room. Thanks to the owner for the constant help and support.
The place is located very nearly to black beach, cliff. There are few bike rentals also nearby. The hosts are friendly, rooms are tidy, environment in quiet.
The facilities are basic but this is a perfect spot to stay in Varkala and explore the coast. 20 seconds from the cliff parade of shops and restuarants.
