I read "a pearl by the Indian ocean" just wanted to add the extra perfect breakfast. Fruit sallad, fruit juices and a variety of eggs. Not to mention the pancakes.

I have never experienced such a neat and cosy place - with perfect distance to the hustle and bustle on the Varkala North Cliff - quiet and right on the small beach of Odayam. Perfect spot for dolphin-spotting. There are eight or maybe ten rooms all together - perfect for friends, couples or lonely travellers - but not for party... More

The main reason to book this hotel is its location on the top of the small cliff of a fishermens beach where only 4 other hotels are located. Hence it is very calm and ideal if you want to spend some days at the beach or under the palms of the hotel garden. If you want to join the hustle... More

We (2 couples from Austria) stayed for 4 nights at the Blue water beach resort in Varkalla. We just loved it. We went for quite some walks along the beach and decided that this hotel had the best location - little outside, very calm and the beach very close, which only very few hotels can offer.. Restaurant is wonderful, staff... More

The first view of the sea and the whole layout of this small resort was breathtaking. The service is unobtrusive and... More

We had the air-con bungalow. This is not a separate bungalow, but rather a room in a hous consisting of three other rooms.We payed 40000 rupies for seven nights, which is rather expencive. This price did not include breakfast. The resort itself lies beautifully right on the beach. The beach right by the resort is not suited for sunbathing or... More

Being seen by some of the good reviews in trip advisor, we decided to experience the stay at bluewater, even though it was the fag end of our trip to South India . We arrived in the middle of the night and was delighted to see some of the people waiting for us. It was a very warm welcome that... More
