“Fantastic Location & Spotlessly Clean”
This accommodation is in an excellent & quiet location. All of the main attractions of Varkala are within a 5 minute walk. The owner of the Devi Kripa Residency could not have been more helpful & accommodating. Also, I don't think that I've ever stayed in cleaner accommodation, it was spotlessly clean. All credit to the owner & his staff.

“Peaceful place”
It's a quite peaceful stay, with cooking amenities provided and a washing machine provided. Very clean, though ac might give a problem. It's near the North cliff. It's basically a place where foreigners stay, so if you like a quiet place go for it. But thinking with the Indian mentality or thinking about the Indian environment then it might not be suitable.

We had a great stay. The room is spacious and clean with AC. The host is very polite and friendly. There is a shared kitchen with fridge and washing machine available at no extra cost. The location is a few minutes walk to the beach and close to local cafés and restaurants. We'd definitely recommend staying here if you're in Varkala.

Sudheer was very welcoming and warm, the nicest I must say. You will be staying near hustling and bustling of the Varkala visit. Inda Cafe is just few meters away. Lovely surroundings. Had an awesome stay. Will definitely stay here if we visit again.

We had a wonderful stay at this place. The owner was super kind, helpful and gave us free drinking water whenever needed! He also provided us with enough towels for the beach and a second key. The room was very clean and spacious. The environment is quiet and safe; walking to the beach takes only 5 minutes. Would certainly come again. Thank you!

“A perfect, high-end stay near the beach that I highly recommend for families and anyone seeking safety and comfort”
Everything was absolutely perfect! The room was incredibly spacious and the facilities are truly top-notch, including a washing machine, fridge, great AC, and a lovely private balcony. The location is brilliant—very close to the beach—yet the stay was completely silent and peaceful. I felt very safe and secure here. The owner is exceptionally friendly, highly cooperative, and provided helpful assistance with every single thing we needed. It is a must-recommend place for families looking for a comfortable and worry-free stay!

“Indian home away from home”
Lovely quiet house located in walking distance to Varkala Cliff and beach. Kitchen downstairs that can be used to make your own tea etc. Really nice owner who drove me to the atm and also to my yoga school where I was checking into the next day. Everything is clean and comfortable.
