We stayed at the Greenshores and our hosts were so friendly and the staff a delight to be around. Masala tea in the morning on the roof dinning area while overlooking the coast was a treat. An impromptu curry cooking lesson by the staff was special. We stayed for seven days and could have easily stayed another week. The rooms... More

We didn't stay here as the management cancelled our booking 2 DAYS before we left the UK, and left our agent the embarrassing task of finding us other accommodation at short notice. It seems that they wanted the room for somebody else, and took the very unprofessional step of simply cancelling our booking, which we had made 9 MONTHS prior... More

We had a great stay at the Greenshore, it is only now that we are able to reflect on our stay and wishing we were back in Kovalam. The staff at the Greenshore are super friendly, and will go out of their way to give advice and make sure you enjoy your stay. Nothing is too much trouble. We had... More

Stayed a couple of nights at this welcoming, professionally run and spotlessly clean establishment. Large airy room with good sized bathroom ceiling fan and everything in perfect working order! Ian, Linn and all the staff were fun, relaxed, very helpful and informative. Nas was not there when we checked-out but managed to track down our driver and call us to... More

The first awesome view of Kovalam beach was from the plane, as we landed at Trivandrum. A friendly driver, arranged by the hotel owner Ian Knox, came to receive us for a 30 minute drive to the hotel. We stayed there for 2 days in August. It's a value for money stay just beside the lighthouse on Kovalam beach. Rooms... More

Three of us stayed over the year end and new year holidays. Everyone was very nice, full of hospitality, the room was clean and comfortable. We also learned Indian local cooking on the rooftop from Shindu, whose sambal was the best ever!!! We also saw coconut harvest, followed by drinking and eating coco palm of course on one day as...

Big and clean rooms, good value for money! Super nice staff that are very service minded. Good location close to the lighthouse beach. Daily cleaning which is a bonus. Would definitely come back and also recommend to anyone.

It's hard to accurately describe the level of warmth and friendliness we experienced during our stay at greenshore. Upon arrival (we were 7 hours late) the friendliest man popped out of nowhere to greet us and show us immediately to our room and not only directed us to good places for dinner but actually came down into the street with...

I stayed at Greenshore over the Christmas period. This was my first visit to India. From the moment Naz greeted me at the airport I felt I was being welcomed into the 'Family'. Ian and Lynne run an informal but tight ship here. The rooms were very clean, spacious and although relatively basic, perfectly comfortable. The windows are well insulated... More
