We enjoyed our stay a lot. It is a very good place to relax, do Yoga/Meditation or even Swimming and Kayaking. The food was amazing, the chef put so much love into every meal. Robinson and Athira were very forthcoming, helpful and friendly and made us feel like coming home straight away. Highly recommend a stay!

Its important to know that the neighbour property is a temple which means they play loud music from 08:00 till 10:00. So maybe try to get one of the huts near the lake for more quite mornings.

Everything — the cottage, the ambience, the nature, the surroundings, the location, the lake view — everything was just perfect. The best part is, it’s pet-friendly, and for a solo female traveler it felt so safe. The staff were so nice, and their pet was super cute and friendly. I even had a massage session while the staff looked after my pet. Everyone was kind and welcoming. It’s such a beautiful stay — I’ll definitely come back for more days. At least 2 days are needed to truly enjoy the property. No need to go anywhere else, just stay in and soak in nature.

This is a very beautiful property located in nature. We saw so much pretty flora and fauna, and the lake view is amazing. Breakfast is good, but the food options are a bit limited for dinner. The room was amazing and nicely decorated. The staff is friendly and approachable. I would 10/10 book again if in town.

It's a bit away from the main Varkala town, which I already knew and was okay with, so guests should only book this property if they don't plan to visit the popular areas. Also, there are a few dogs and one cat at the property, and it would be great if the staff would take care of them a bit better. The cat in particular, was very skinny. I would request the staff to look into this.

The property is absolutely fantastic, offering top-notch hospitality that truly stands out. The highlight of my experience was the Ayurvedic therapy—it was exceptional. The doctor and staff were highly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely dedicated to providing the best care, not just going through the motions. Every aspect of the treatment felt authentic and effective. I left feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, and I can’t wait to visit again soon!

Didn't like the boat ride provided from there. But when I enquired, there's another boat service 13km away, through the lagoons and all, so don't go for the ride provided by the resort.

I was blessed that I ended up here. It is under new ownership and management. Not everything ready but everything has solution. I am female solo traveller. Felt completely comfortable and safe. Have a great single room with nice bathroom. Perfect for 1 person with simply divine view. When there was no yoga so they arranged for me 1-1 sessions on the dock. The food was delicious, authentic Keralan food. The staff were fantastic especially the manager Ravi. Very good at customer relations. The Ayurvedic massage was so superb I had another in my short 2 night trip. Next time I will take it to do much longer as the avyuredic treatments need a week. The therapist was so dedicated that in just2 treatments I felt a change. The location is sublime. So peaceful. So quiet. So pretty. Highly recommend. The yoga Shala was under short renovation but it looks to be a beautiful space to do yoga. A short 30 min auto tuk tuk to varkala beach and then back to serenity.

Vishram Village is an amazing peaceful sanctuary situated right next to a big lake. You are completely immersed in nature and can spend all day outside relaxing by the lake, kayaking, doing yoga in the outdoors yoga hall or drinking tea on the porch. Our villa was huge and with a great bedroom and really comfortable bed and AC. The staff was super helpful and friendly -- excellent service. The hotel manager and owner made sure we were always looked after, organized rides to the town, helped us out with anything we needed. It felt like our home for the days we spent there. We had a great stay and will definitely return next time we are in Varkala.

Nothing to complain about..

We were actually planning to book one of the normal hotels in Varkala Cliff area. However, as we had a friend who just underwent a surgery, we decided to take a calm and quiet property and that's how we found Vishram Village. The property is very clean, the food range is limited, but again, of superior quality and delicious. I believe it's a property facing lake spread over 4 acres and they have two private docks. They have facilities for all water games. But, above all, the best they offer is calmness and comfort. Big thanks to the staff and management, we had a wonderful stay there. And for the dog-lovers, you will be warmly received by Naala and Karma... And those who don't like dogs, they will never ever come close to you..!

The last order for the dinner is 9.30 pm. It could be extended by an hour.

I loved the serenity and peaceful location of this property. It was set on the lake and they have kayaks that you can use at sunset for maximum peace and quiet. The homecooked food is sensational and I love the staff working there - they are extremely friendly and welcoming. The setting of the place is gorgeous and a great place to unwind/ relax.

Unfortunately it felt a little 'off season' when I was there and I didn't see any other guests. This was great to help with the peace and serenity of the place but it also meant that the yoga sessions were not on. I feel like this place would be amazing for a solo traveller with the right people staying there but would be also great for anyone wanting to get away from people.

Nice property with a wonderfull garden full of interesting plants and animals with great view and access on the nearby lake. Kayaking activities included with no extra price. Kind staff always available for suggestions.

The hotel is not near the varkala cliff or all the main beaches/restaurants, altough they are easily reachable through a tuk tuk ride (250rs each way). Food service to be improved due to long waiting time.

Its a beautiful pet friendly property located on the banks of a lake. Its well kept and theyve maintained the natural environment of that area. We took the lake view room which had a nice view . The room was small but was comfortable and clean. The staff were friendly and the food was decent. They offer activities like kayaking which were also very good. A big plus was that we were able to take our pets.Overall it was a pretty good experience.
