We stayed here for 2 nights. The hotel is just on the beach. The rooms are nice with a huge balcony overlooking the sea. The hotel has very interesting and beautiful sculptures displayed throughout the property. There are plenty of places in the hotel where you can sit and relax. The swimming pool is big and very nice. The shacks,... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights in Dec 2011 to relax on a 5 week trip around southern India. This is the 5 star place in Kovalam. It sits at the top of a steep hill above the beaches, so it has fabulous sea views. We enjoyed the pool and the excellent service from the staff. Food in... More

Just came back from a short stay at the Turtle. It is an eclectic boutiquey hotel featuring interesting and quirky sculptures located throughout the property. The sea view and location are quite good, You can hit the main part of Lighthouse beach, where all the shops and restaurants are, in less than 10 minutes walking. The rooms was quite spacious...

The TV had channels that was not clear and limited ones. First half day we had a lot of confusions to get going with the room. There are no lifts in the western side... More

The room was nice, comfortable and with good bedding. The light switches were hard to find, the Air Conditioning control was... More

A comfortable place to relax and unwind at the beginning of my holiday before being joined by my family.

The best breakfasts in all the 3 weeks in... More

Room very nice. But the sky suite is not very well maintained. The sunrise and sunset view from the room itself is exquisite and fantabulous. Food is really mouthwatering. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Their private way to the beach is not all that well built. But overall it was a awesome stay. More

Room very nice, staff really helpful and friendly, the Executive Chef Soju Philip is excellent - my husband and I only eat fish and vegetarian, and for breakfast and dinner he made us excellent Keralan dishes - and always something different. After each meal, we couldn't wait for the next!! More
