5 Bedroom Luxury Villa in Kovalam with Private Pool

We had a wonderful stay at the property which was fantastic. The property is lovely and the staff brilliant. Thank you to Meena and Jagath for their excellent hosting skills. Nothing was too much trouble. Nickel is a fantastic Chef who can prepare literally any meal you could care for to an excellent standard. The housekeeping ladies did an excellent job of keeping the rooms and property maintained and clean snd the gardener who kept the gardens beautiful. The pool was enormous and kept very clean by Jagath. A lot better than many European properties we have stayed at. All in all a great holiday and we will be back!

We had the most amazing holiday here. Beautiful and extremely well managed property. All staff were courteous, super efficient and friendly. Gorgeous food too! Swimming pool extremely clean and child friendly. Better than any five star experience I've had. Will certainly be recommending to family and friends and hope to visit again sometime.

After two weeks of hustle and bustle in Kerala, this extraordinary home fell nothing short of an opulent oasis. The design of the home is truly spectacular with its open and expansive entrance onto the pool (a constant invitation); the building's unique contrast of concrete and chestnut wood; and its charming ornamental antiques. Altogether the home blends southern India, its warmth and tropical surroundings, with sleek contemporary architecture and elegance. The most memorable part of our stay would have to be watching the hundreds of fishing boats twinkle on the sea at night. The view of the ocean was hard to take eyes away from at any point during the day - especially sunset when gathering for a delicious meal by the pool. From the start to the end of our stay the food we ate eclipsed all other meals we had eaten on our three week journey through India. The chef is highly talented, accommodating and diverse in his cooking (providing western food or traditional Indian as desired). For breakfast he kindly prepared our favourite local dish which was appams (local rice pancake), coconut chutney and dahl, alongside a pot of masala chai and fresh fruit. Another favourite dish was his spicy tandoori paneer which he made especially for the vegetarians at the table. Needless to say, we felt like royalty when we sat down for every meal. Finally our stay would not have been the same without the special Meena. She made us feel at ease from the moment we stepped out of the car and insisted on helping us with our heavy bags. It was such a pleasure getting to know her and hear about the cultural festivities taking place nearby and within wider India. I am already daydreaming about my return to this special place with more friends and family. There is truly no other place like it.

Oh what a holiday! We stayed here for 10 days at the start of the dry season (so a few late afternoon showers which were actually lovely to watch or swim in even) and could not recommend this place more. We had looked at the house on the internet briefly beforehand and were expecting to have a lovely holiday but the pictures really do not do this place justice. My partner and i were close to tears as we walked through the main doors for the first time. You cannot be prepared for the view and sheer beauty that you are welcomed into. Our room was spotless and the facilities excellent. The pool was definitely a high point. Also the service was impeccable. Our hosts were there whenever you needed or space when you wanted it, gave us great advice on the local activities which we wanted to do. We ate like royalty! The seafood, the fresh food. WOW :) Honestly, we are hoping to return as soon as we can get some more time off work because it was perfect in every way! If you want a relaxing holiday this is definitely for you. We had some time by ourselves and the rest with 3 other couples and not once did it feel overcrowded! We explored the local area and there is lots to do, but with a view like that even very active people like ourselves just wanted to sit and take it all in. After this holiday I never want to stay in a hotel again as this is all that you get in a hotel and more.
