What travelers are saying

Lovely beach... early morning fishermen pulling in their nets... great seafood at Fishermens Restaurant and Hotel.. fantastic and delicious.. great staff and service.

A worthy competitor to the famous Kerala backwaters, the Kovalam beach gives a visitor the luxury of enjoying calm bay waters with a view of coconut trees, as well as waves crashing onto a rocky beach.

We stayed at the leela kovalam which has a private beach which is beautiful, clean, calm and serene, we even took a walk along the beach and had a speed boat ride which was fabulous
