Lavender residency

Very good place

Nothing

Great location, clean, secure and spacious rooms with friendly staff.

Lovely room, good size, comfy bed and beautiful floor tiles. There is a water dispenser in the kitchen so you don't have to buy so many plastic bottles which is a plus! The people working at Lavender were really friendly and helpful too 😊 Great location, easy walking distance to the cliff and so lots of restaurants/shopping to choose from and of course the beach. Would definitely stay here again.

Good locations short walk to main bits! Very clean room and spacious, staff were really friendly, sorted the taxis and laundry for us. Highly recommend!!

Sehe gute Lage! Man läuft nur knapp 5 min zum Strand bzw. zur Strandpromenade, wo es unzählige süße kleine Shops, Cafés und Restaurants gibt. Das Personal war super nett, die Zimmer geräumig und sauber und es gibt einen Wasserspender, an dem man sich jederzeit bedienen kann.

The staff was too polite and helpful. We had a stay for 2 days and it was very peaceful. Must visit and close to the beach 5mins walk distance from helipad beach .

All was good nothing to say

Anu was so friendly and helpful, the room was lovely, big and clean, with quiet aircon and complimentary shampoo, soap and even toothpaste! There is water available in the kitchen which is well equipped, although I didn't use it. Anu gave brilliant advice on where to eat and offered to arrange any treatments or trips I wanted. He stayed up really late waiting for me to check in and was still cheerful and friendly. A really lovely introduction to Kerala! In a quiet street just give minutes from the main cliff area.

Nothing

Exactly as described! So clean and comfy, I slept like a baby. Perfect location, just 10 minutes from shops, restaurants, and the beach.

Residency was wakable distance to the cliff. Staff was friendly and helped to rent a bike. We had a pleasent stay.

Bathroom was neat and clean but there were many cockroachs.

No food served

Adding breakfast will be ideal.

Good location, close to both the north and south cliff. It has parking on site and all day AC. Toothpaste and shower gel were provided as well as towels

Wifi was a bit slow on the rooms

It is a nice room, spacious, AC, hot water is available, the location is rather quiet too, the staff is nice

kitchen was not super equipped, it had microwave and induction cooker, but due to electricity problems none of them were working, so I could not use it

Looks good from the outside. Rooms are spacious.

AC is very old, and does not work in the weather conditions. No Restaurant. Furniture, fittings and bed sheets were very old and giving up. Not maintained properly.

Good for 1-2 day stay

Only 4 rooms are there, so if you’re going by large group or multiple families then check it out.

The value for money, the cleanliness, the refillable water facility, we could wash our clothes in the bathroom

The kitchen is basic. Nothing wrong, but could be more inviting rather than transactional

Cleanliness and service

The owner arranged a taxi for me from the airport. He arranged a rickshaw driver for my dental appointment. My headphones broke and he got me new ones. He was amazing. The room is big and clean the A/C worked well. There was a shared kitchen that was very clean...quiet in the evening....can't fault it...about a five minute walk to the cliff

Nothing

the location is close to the north cliff, the fact that there is a kitchen and drinkable water, I recommend it

Very good place. Very helpfull owner and staff. Great location. Highly recommended!

Everything was good

The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They didn't create any unnecessary issues, unlike some other property owners we have encountered in the past. Even though we had an early check-in, it was smooth. The helper Amma is so sweet. She always greets us with a smile. We felt extremely welcomed there. The property owner helped us in arranging a two-wheeler and also an auto on the day of our return. The location is literally in walkable distance from the north cliff and Varkala beach. If you love walking, even black sand beach can be reached by foot easily.

We feel for the standard amenities that they provide, the price is on a high side.

Great location a 4 min walk from the beach, restaurants and shops and in the other direction 1 min to the main road for a tuk tuk, a street chai and the corner shop Very clean and comfortable and the kitchen was brilliant to have. Anu was incredibly helpful and nothing was too much trouble. He arranged the laundry, taxi, scooter and is a lovely friendly guy

We couldn’t fault it

Nice room, nice place, helpful host. Location is a short convenient walk via a narrow path to the heart of the Breach cliff area. I arrived very early and staff facilitated getting my room ready fast. Room was fine, comfortable, clean, fan & aircon. Kitchen close by for fridge or own-food making as you wish. No breakfast included but happy to provide my own.

No real negatives.

Great location!! Super quiet and walking distance to all restaurants, shops and the main beach within 5 mins.

We had a cockroach and a gecko in our room. This can happen of course, but may not be suited for light hearted visitors.

Large room with wardrobe and comfy bed in good quiet location. Shared terrace in front of property and use of kitchen with mineral water available on tap. Lovely staff who were happy to provide extra sheet and towel.

The bedroom had frosted bedroom windows. However it remained lovely and cool throughout the day. Some maintenance is required in property.

An excellent property in the best location! Very close to the main Varkala beach and much nicer, less touristy Odayam beach! 5 min walk to an excellent local food options, Juicy Cafe and Thiramala home foods! Very friendly and helpful host. Highly recommend!

Very nice comfy room and bed

Very comfortable, very clean, and a great location in a quiet street 5 minutes from the beach! For the price, we weren’t expecting Lavender to be as good as it was. Our room was big, had quiet AC, and was spotlessly clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful also. We would stay again!

All positive :)

The owner/manager is friendly and likeable. He helped me organize tuktuks between the inn and the train station. The wifi and A/C are good. Nice to have a communal refrigerator.

The bed is quite hard. The room I had urgently needs a refresh. I had expected a less dilapidated room. Considering the holiday pricing, it was very poor value. Come with cash, as the nearest ATM is a 19-minute walk away.

Good location on quite street but only 5 min walk from centre of North Cliff and the beach. Clean and comfortable bed. Anu the owner is a lovely, helpful guy too. Definitely recommend! Good value

Cleanliness, hospitality

The location and host

N/A

It was really comfortable and the facilities were nice and the staff was really cooperative.

Great, quiet location, back from the hustle and bustle, yet within easy walking distance of the cliff restaurants, beach and shops, via several alleys. Really comfortabe, firm bed; large room with A/C and ceiling fan. Kitchen with fridge&kettle shared with one other room. Anu keeps the place spotless and is always helpful and kind. He also booked us a taxi to our next destination. Thank you

Would be nice to have a few hooks to hang clothes at the end of the day.

I was a solo traveller and the staff ensured utmost safety and also called me to check if I am aware of the way back. Very courteous and fun staff.

.

The rooms were clean, very spacious and comfortable as my home, and the staff was simply amazing. And the most exciting part is the fare, Great Value For Money. Highly Recommandable.

Spacious room, Feels like home, neat and clean and 3 people can easily accomodate in one room, Owner was polite and friendly and he also arranged scooties for us

Lighting’s can be better and Wi-Fi range can be better.

I wanted a nice, quiet, clean place to stay and it ticked all the boxes. They have 4 rooms in total (2 each side with shared kitchen for 2 rooms, the reception area in the middle & ample parking space in front). There is a small balcony. Good privacy if you are with friends or family. It’s away from the noisy restaurants and very easy to walk to nearby restaurants and cliff/helipad. Anu in reception is a nice and friendly. He will help you if you need anything arranged. Hot water is there 24hours (thanks to solar heaters). Room has AC. No television. Overall a nice place to stay if you are planning a short or long holiday.

AC was a bit noisy when it was on high fan setting. If you report any issues, they will sort it soon.

Comfortable stay

Price
