I had a truly beautiful experience staying at Coco Homestays. Subin and his wife were incredibly helpful, friendly, and easy to talk to — they made me feel at home from the moment I arrived. Subin kindly shared with me some sacred local places to visit, which was very meaningful for me, as the purpose of my journey in India is to pay my respect to Hindu gods and devas. The location of the homestay is perfect — peaceful and very close to important temples and spiritual sites. They also recommended delicious traditional local food, which I thoroughly enjoyed! The room itself was clean, comfortable, and just what I needed to rest and recharge after temple visits. I’m grateful for their warmth and hospitality — it truly added something special to my spiritual journey in India. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a soulful and comfortable place to stay

I chose this place because it's very close to the airport, it's just a 10 min ride, I arrived late in the evening and the next morning I left already and didn't really have time to enjoy and explore the surroundings. the host Tushar is extremely helpful and the room was clean and tidy.

The Kovalam Beach House is a little bit of the main beach stretch. In walking distance there is a small very scenic beach where not many people went. It's just down some stairs. Also there were a few restaurants around and we loved the lobster pot. Soya does a great job in his restaurant. In Kovalam Beachhouse Rahul took good care of us and the property and was always friendly and helpful. We absolutely recommend the place!
