This place is a little slice of heaven!! I spent 4 nights here and was sad to go! It is beautiful the grounds / garden, pool area, building! And an absolute bargain for what is on offer! Lovely friendly staff who give you lots of space don't try and sell you anything but if you need something it's no problem at all. Breakfast was really good best eggs we have had anywhere! I would highly recommend a stay here

We had a truly wonderful stay at Ananda Marari Heritage. This place is not just a stay — it feels like a peaceful home near the beach, filled with warmth, care, and genuine hospitality. The husband and wife who manage the property are some of the kindest hosts we have ever met. They personally take care of every guest with so much dedication and sincerity. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel comfortable and welcomed like family. Their humble nature, attention to detail, and constant smile made our stay extra special. The rooms were clean, neat, and very comfortable. The atmosphere is calm, relaxing, and perfect for anyone who wants to escape the rush of city life. The property is beautifully maintained, and the traditional charm of the place gives a very peaceful vibe. The breakfast was one of the highlights of our stay. It was fresh, tasty, homemade, and served with so much care and affection. You could really feel the warmth and effort behind every dish. It added such a homely touch to our mornings and made the experience even more memorable. What impressed us the most was the effort and hard work of the owners. You can clearly see how passionately they run this place and how much love they put into every little thing. It is rare nowadays to find people who host guests with such honesty and heart. If you are looking for a peaceful stay in Alappuzha with caring hosts and a homely atmosphere, we wholeheartedly recommend this place. We are leaving with beautiful memories and would definitely love to come back again. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality and for making our trip so memorable. Wishing your family and this beautiful property even more success in the future ❤️

“Manager is so welcoming, he made us so comfortable throughout my stay.”
The hospitality wasn’t just professional—it felt personal and sincere, which made a big difference. Breakfast is good and the location is not too far from the highway

“A stay without water no lock for room , we spend night with great fear about the security.”
Sorry to say we had a horrible unsecured stay in the beach property.

We had the pleasure of taking a staycation at this property that literally has a beautiful private beach right in front of the room along with the friendly staff making it a perfect find. We travelled with our large breed dog and hence the glass door separated area around our room was perfect to ensure there was enough space available for her to move around without having to worry about her coming in and dirtying the beds especially after a beach swim. It was like having a separate room for you and your pet, in the best possible way. They also have a pool available for use in their other property which is just a short walk away. We couldn't recommend it enough for anyone looking for a quite stay bang on the beach.

Thank you for your fantastic hospitality and service. Very nice, relaxing and a good service. Great breakfast and lovely service, enjoyed our stay. Grilling at the Beach is a new experience to us. Mr. Deepan brought the marinated Seer Fish to Grill and the price is also reasonable.
