We spent 2 nights here in February. We found this the perfect contrast with hectic Kovalam. The accommodation was first class - beautiful A/C cottage with a huge bathroom. The Kerela-style food was excellent. Sunil could not have been more helpful. He took us on a trip to the Elephant Rehabilitation Centre and got us black pepper at bargain rates!... More

The owners arranged for a taxi to collect from us at Varkala. We stayed for 2 nights and for the first night were the only guests in the resort. We had an air conditioned cottage but could have done with a non a/c one as there are frequent power cuts! We walked up to the Kali temple for breathtaking views... More

We arrived in Trivandrum and had a taxi straight to Bioveda - after 24 hours travelling this was a paradise to arrive at. Set in beautiful gardens with a spectacular view over Neyyar Dam, this is a place to sit back and relax. The cottages are lovely clean, spacious with balconies and chairs to relax in. Sunil is a fantastic... More

Spent two peaceful days (wish it had been more) at Bio Veda. The resort (it's not really a resort but cabins in the grounds of the main house), is situated at the base of Kalipara temple which is in turn perched on a huge rock - the views are some of the finest we came across on our travels in...

We arrived very late at night and had to be rescued by Sunil and his uncle after we lost our way but nothing is too much trouble for these hosts. Beautiful scenery, great service, comfortable rooms and tasty food. Thank you, it was a wonderful stay

Without question, Bioveda Kerala is among the best places we have visited in 20 years of worldwide travelling. The location is awe-inspiring; lush, flowered gardens teeming with butterflies overlooking the majesty of the Western Ghat mountains and the deep blue water of the Neyyar Dam in the valley below. It’s a tranquil haven, a world away from the heat and... More

I stayed here for two nights with a friend in mid November. The resort itself is really nice; the gardens are very pretty and the cottage we stayed in was very clean, well decorated and had a massive bathroom. The most outstanding feature of the resort has to be the views of the surrounding area which are absolutely stunning. I... More

My partner and I stayed here for a 5 days in February. It was an easy 1 hour taxi journey from Trivandrum railway station. The views from Bio Veda are the most stunning I have seen in 3 trips to South India - a huge lush green vista stretching all the way to the Western Ghat mountains that separate Kerala... More

We spend 4 nights at this hill resort to see some of the nature and wildlife around Neyyar Dam in Kerala. The location is beautifully remote and gets you away from all the urban hustle and bustle. The wooden cabins are rustic yet beautiful. Sunil, the owner, was a wonderful host and very helpful. He arranged pick ups and day... More
