Ashtamudi Villas

Kollam

Located within 4.3 km of Kollam Railway Station and 4.9 km of Thangassery Light House in Kollam, Ashtamudi Villas provides accommodation with seating area. There is an on-site restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. The guest house features family rooms. This is a very travellers friendly hotel. It's right by the lake and has a lovely green garden full of palm trees and other greenery. Hammocks between the trees and also a canoe. All the rooms have a private terrace with table and chairs. Large and spotless clean room with an excellent bathroom. Friendly English speaking staff. Excellent WiFi, coffee and tea sold by the pot, and cold ones in the fridge. Can't get much better than that. They arrange tours to Monroe Island as well. The hotel is far from town, but you can get there with a local bus for just 10 RP, either from the main road just up from the bus station, or from the school junction where you can jump off your incoming bus if you are coming from the north. Best place to stay as the town centre has completely lost all its travellers atmosphere.

With a balcony, each room has a private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries. Some rooms have air conditioning. A sIster and brother pair own and manage the place and are wonderful hosts. I am a lone woman traveler and I felt safe and secure in the location, they provided me with great info on where to go, where to eat, procuring tuk tuk ( uber doesn't operate in this town because of a union) Room and balcony more spacious than expected and were super clean and tidy. This was a great value for such a nice stay. They even do room service meals with advance notice, food is good and also value priced. Will stay here again.

Breeze Hill resort

Viripara

At the guest house, some units have a private entrance, dining area, fireplace and kitchenware. Featuring a private bathroom with a bidet, units at the guest house also provide guests with free WiFi, while certain rooms here will provide you with a balcony. We stayed in the tree house and loved being a little part of the forest. The Breeze Hill resorts are located at a pristine location, away from the hustle of the city. There was a little difficulty we faced in reaching the place as it was hilly. Please travel with a driver who knows the area already. The tree house was very nice, and the staff was very very helpful, polite and friendly. Thanks to them, we had great food everyday, in the beautiful forest. Would really come back for this. :)
