I am surprised that this place got such high reviews on Travel Trip. My standards/ expectations are higher The room is ok - large but lacks flavor/ flow The outdoor bathroom is ok - large but lacks flavor/ flow The private verandah is of no use - uncared grass/ hardly any plants The premises are so disappointing & uncared for - especially after the swimming pool - its like a junk yard to me - even 3 star hotels have better maintained outdoor premises The area around the the cottages is tolerable - needs a lot of upgrading. The pond where the kayaks are is dirty & uninviting. The swimming pool is small. The open drain running through the property is full of green moss, The beach is public - most hotels have public beaches but the hotels still maintain the area leading till the beaches - this is standard practice There is no tv in the room - fine - but then the other facilities that you offer should be good enough. There is lack of maintenance all over the place except the cottages/ restaurant/ pool I have just come from the Brunton Boatyard at Kochi - it was a perfect 10 - this place is a 2 - 1 for the room/ bathroom & 1 for the staff - the staff are good but the management needs to maintain this place - its a total rip off at 11k a night - except the cottage/restaurant/pool the resort premises are a total junkyard - wish i never came Avoid this hotel - i am from chennai - the 3 star beach hotels outside Chennai on the coast have better maintained premises

Marari Beach Resort

Marari Beach sprawls across 55 acres of lawns, far-flung lotus ponds and whispering coconut groves, all threaded through with stone- flagged pathways. Living: Modelled on the fishermens' dwellings of Mararikulam, your accommodations are a fine balance between traditional form and modern function. Dining: At Marari Beach, you can enjoy the simple traditional dishes of the fisherfolk (along with, of course , a variety of international cuisine favourites) at our verandah- style restaurant. Dinners are candlelit, often with live music. Healing: Marari Beach has a fully equipped ayurvedic centre, so you can get all the benefits of this ancient system of medicine. Put yourself in the hands of our expert masseuses and you'll feel reborn. There are also regular yoga classes on the beach, in the thick of a cool coconut grove. The locale, we're told, does wonders for your inner serenity. Need we say more?

Another memorable stay

Amazing vibe and excellent hospitality

Reviewed By SwedestravelInIndia

The hosts are amazing and really doing everything to make you feel like you want to stay for ever. The place is small, really clean and beautiful interior. The food is cooked with love and is delicious. The beach is just 5 min away, totally empty when we were there in mid April. The area around the stay is very walkable and if you would like to take a short run i the morning, then finishing off with a relaxing swim in the beautiful swimming pools before breakfast. Would recommend anyone to stay here, the kids enjoyed is as much as we did. Amazing to find Swedish books to read during the day in the reception. Thanks Densi and Alwyn!

We travelled with my 11 months old son..First they took us to a room.which had lizard droppings in bed and the floor was sticky..we asked to clean the room.but the worker was very rude..in extra bed provided it was very unclean and I could see lizards droppings all over .I got amazed since I specifically mentioned this was for my son..Next they took to another room. We asked to clean the room again..but the worker for the namesake cleaned and told it's tough to maintain.and compared to first room reptiles were less..In the night we took shift since leaches falling from roof ..yes yes..I am not exaggerating..The bathroom is open air.. Only thing to look is view..view was spectacular and food is also good..and other that the resort has to improve alooooooooottttttttt.... see if they are asking this much price per day..they have to try to give some time for maintenance..

Marari Beach-cgh Earth

Hq

Lovely place to relax and rejuvenate

Reviewed By rohanino

This was our first visit to this CGH Earth property. We’ve been to other CGH Earth properties before. The good experiences and good feelings continue here as well. A very nice, enjoyable and relaxing stay. The service and people are so kind, smiling and ready to please you. Rooms/villas are well appointed, comfortable and clean. Food is tasty and excellent. Try the local favourites if you enjoy different cuisines. We had a private pool Villa and it was the best. The common pool is clean and great as well. The property is spread out so that could be a bit of a problem for senior citizens or people with walking troubles. The hotel does provide buggies to ferry people around but the number is limited and therefore there could be delays. PROS: Great staff and service, nice cottages/villas, good food and a overall great experience. CONS: No TV in the rooms (but that’s a CGH earth policy I think), basic room service, long walks could be a problem for people with walking difficulties Overall we loved it and had a pretty good time. Definitely recommended.

A lovely quiet place to stay so close to the beach. Khun Chako is an exceptional host who is always willing to help and he arranged for us to have a lovely boat trip. Even when he went on a pilgramage he would often call to check that we were ok. Gracie cooks delicious meals. Try the fish curry. They are such sweet and kind hosts. The rooms are so spacious too. Highly recommend.

POOR MAINTENANCE

Reviewed By Raj M

We booked 3 bedrooms for my son's birthday for two nights. The property is good with swimming pool and neat. But the maintenance of rooms are poor the switch sockets have no power .we highlighted to the front office. They in turn offered us another room which is not pool facing. If they improve this kind of issues then it will be good. Advised all visitors to check with the property about water heaters and power point are usable.
