Our stay was relaxing. Hotel made provisions for temple visits and other sightseeing. Breakfast spread was good. Buggy/ Shuttle services were very prompt. Location of high tea was mesmerising.

Housekeeping can be improved a bit considering lots of greenery around the rooms which leads to lots of insects entering the room.

Taj Green Cove felt like a hidden sanctuary tucked between jungle and sea — a perfect retreat after our travels through Kerala. From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless: we were greeted with a cool drink, shown around the lush grounds, and led to our peaceful chalet nestled deep within the tropical greenery. The room was beautifully appointed, cool, and quiet, with a balcony looking out over palm trees and the sea beyond. The setting is simply breathtaking. Meandering pathways, a serene lagoon, and the resort’s blend of modern luxury with natural elements made every corner feel like a postcard. Daily high tea by the sea was a highlight — enjoying snacks, chai, and live music while the sun dipped below the horizon and fishing boats lit up the coast. The dining experiences were thoughtful and personalised. Abhishek and his team offered regional breakfast tastings and created a special candlelit anniversary dinner. The food — particularly the Indian dishes — was fresh, vibrant, and full of variety, with a special mention for the seafood and the chef-prepared chicken saag. The pizza-making class with Chef Joel and Chef Manoj, the spa treatments, and the attentive service from Annie and Guest Manager Neela made our stay exceptional. Every detail, from the spa to the activities, was curated with care and a warm human touch — making it a standout destination and a heartfelt memory.

Though our stay at Taj Green Cove was magical, there are areas where a little polish could elevate the experience further. While the chalet was comfortable and well located in the jungle, a few fixtures felt a little dated. The beach, though stunning, isn’t ideal for swimming due to strong tides and rocks — better for scenic walks than sunbathing. Finally, although we did not spend too much time in the room, a better TV with access to streaming services or connectivity to our devices would have elevated our stay when we wanted a quiet night in.

Property was mind blowing

Staff was great first time in my life I have that kind of experience.I would like to say thanks to sir ABHISHEK KUMAR catering assistant what a great guy love him so much he was so kind and humble even my mum miss him so much.we are in Rockholm now but service so poor no one even say hello or ask anything like sir ABHISHEk KUMAR.

Here in rockholm no one even ask us for glass of water.sir ABHISHEK KUMAR miss you so much you are great also your staff so nice we will see you again thanks for everything you done for us

clean property, friendly staff

big snake outside front door, crawled away in front of us, scared my children endless, and they were left scared through the rest of our stay

We stayed for 2 nights during our 10 day holiday and quickly decided to spend those 2 days just relaxing on site as it had such a lovely vibe and great facilities. Our favourite hotel of the four we stayed in by an absolute mile. Great selection of food for breakfast, with a buffet and certain items cooked to order. Staff so friendly and helpful, they definitely added to a fantastic experience. Swimming pool was great, warm and never crowded, sun loungers available when not swimming. The absolute best bit was the complementary sunset high tea - watching the sunset over the sea while eating traditional Indian snacks and drinking masala tea (it was the best masala tea we had in Kerala).

The food and drink was quite expensive but we could have easily ventured out to eat elsewhere if we'd wanted.

Staff were the highlight of the stay, they were friendly, warm, welcoming and treated us like family. My 2 boys felt like royalty! Chef Har Bans Singh bent over backwards to cater for us, so much that my wife wanted to ask him to stay with us in london! Restaurant staff: Gopi, Abishek, Tanisha, Kaushik, tended to all our requests, with a smile and never made us feel our requests were too much. The human touch, warmth and excellent service, should make Taj group feel proud of their staffing team. The property was exceptional too, the rooms were quaint and rustic, the pools were great way to cool off, the boating/ snacks/ games at teatime was a highlight too. I would rate this hotel at 5 star, with the staff above, i would rate it as 6 star!! thankyou for all your efforts team, you made it a memorable one!

Perhaps activities in the evening after dinner, eg interactive gavmes/ quizes/ maybe live music set up by the hotel in the lobby etc, any entertainment would have been a nice way to end the evening after dinner would be a good touch.

The location is nothing short of magical—nestled in lush, expansive grounds that are immaculately maintained and bursting with tropical beauty. Every path winds through vibrant gardens, offering moments of peace and natural wonder at every turn. But what truly sets this place apart is the staff. They are exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. Every need is anticipated and met with grace and care. Their dedication and hospitality elevate the entire experience.

Whilst the rooms had everything we could have wanted and were very clean, it could do with a refurbish

The staff were all very friendly and attentive. The properties are gorgeous, green, and environmentally conscientious. The food selection is unparalleled. The location is close to the beach yet private and quiet. Only having 59 villas makes it a boutique and personalized experience allowing the staff to focus on five star service. We were treated with excellent service from security, reception, dining, spa, and several managers. Can't say enough about how good the service is here. I wish we had more time to take advantage of all the offerings at Taj Green Cove.

Our room was beautiful and very comfortable. By no means did we have a complaint. Some of the aging infrastructure needs maintenance or replacing. Loud air conditioning in the room can startle you when the fans rattles on start up. Flashing green light on the fire /smoke detector in room can light up the entire area when it's dark. A variety of different types of pillows would be a nice touch.

Beautiful locale, lovely property with view to the sea and lagoon. Our cottage had a small porch/garden and also a distant view of the sea. At night we could hear the sound of the waves faintly. Comfortable clean rooms, friendly helpful staff from the buggy drivers, to the folks at the reception counter and the restaurant. I was staying with my mom and we both had a great time and felt very comfortable. I would like to mention and thank Joel who checked us into Taj and was so very attentive to my Mom, helped me out big time with kite flying..and overall made us feel very welcome and this trip truly memorable. Thank you so much!!

Probably because of the landscaping of the property we had steps that led to the room. Thankfully they have a comfortable rise and tread, so the steps were easy to climb.

My Compliments to Mr Suku Vergese and team and here is my feedback .Taj Kovalam is a stunning property that blends Kerala’s beauty with signature Taj luxury. The ambience is serene, the rooms are beautifully designed, and the views are breathtaking. The staff is exceptionally warm, professional, and attentive making you feel truly cared for. The food is a standout, offering rich local flavours with impeccable service. A flawless experience from start to finishtruly one of the best stays in India.
