Marari Beach Resort Alleppey- a CGH Earth Experience

Very happy with everything. Very quite place to relax and unwind. Highly recommend. Beautiful staff as well.

Amazing Stay at this hotel. Awesome staff great installations and rooms. The food is great. 100% recomendable for some peaceful days.

Marari Beach is situated in Mararikulam area of Kerala. If coming from Kochi we recommend taking the coastal road as the views are stunning and village life great to see. On our arrival we had a lovely introduction and were presented with a very refreshing drink of Blue Butterfly Pea Flower tea. As part of CGH Earth group, they had outstanding environmental practices including recycled paper for their stationary. Set in beautiful grounds, the villa we stayed was very spacious and comfortable with the open-air bathroom providing a unique and enjoyable feature. Don’t worry mosquito repellent cream and incense sticks are provided. There was a lovely pool area with complimentary towels and water plus bar/ food options. The property runs down to a beautiful beach, perfect for a stroll, swim, watching fishermen and enjoying the sunset. The food and drink were excellent, with a great mix of Indian and Western options with many of the ingredients from the onsite organic garden. The restaurant offers local Keralan dishes, which we highly recommend you try. The daily afternoon tea stall offered delicious local cakes/treats with your Masala Chai / Coffee. There were plenty of activities, including a butterfly garden tour, nature and wildlife walks, and an amazing owl-watching tour with one of the knowledgeable resort naturalists. Shibu was extremely passionate about the wildlife and helped the group to spot various owls and other birds and to take great photos using his telescope. The staff (and naturalists) were incredibly engaging and helpful on top of providing an excellent service. They are the primary reason why the stay was so relaxing and enjoyable. Special mention has to go to Sishwimi(?) at reception, who provided great support when I had a medical incident, arranging a doctors appointment so I was seen and treated the same day. Thank you!! We would not hesitate to return or recommend Marari Beach as wonderful place to stay.

A lovely resort. The pool is exceptional. Very clean with nice private bungalows. The food was good and there were excellent touches such as a bird watching walk, and afternoon tea. Delicious food in the restaurant. Beach was very nice.

The Marari Beach Hotel was the last one on our trip and it was a very chilled place to be On our arrival we had a lovely introduction by Jayakrishnan will sipping a very refreshing drink of Blue Butterfly Pea Flower tea The hotel is part of CGH Earth group and had outstanding environmental practices including paper bags The villa we stayed in was set in beautiful grounds and was very comfortable but some may find the part open-air bathroom a bit strange to start with! It was helpful that they provided mosquito repellent cream and incense sticks 😀 There was a lovely pool area with complimentary towels and water plus bar/ food options and Vishnu gave excellent service and was very friendly and chatty The changing rooms and nearby toilets/ showers were very large There was plenty to do at the hotel including 9am butterfly garden tour ( wear long trousers and have some mosquito repellent on), other nature and wildlife tours. The tour to see owls was amazing (again be sure to wear long trousers and sleeves). Shibu was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife and helped the group to spot various owls and other birds and to take great photos using his telescope The afternoon tea stall run by locals had lovely tea/ coffee and delicious cake/ treats and other activities such as archery were great fun to try The property has extensive gardens and a number of bars/ restaurants onsite and a reasonably priced shop. It runs down to the beach where it was great to have a stroll, watch the fisherman and see the glorious sunset.

Smiling countenances. Twinkling eyes. Everything is possible and executed with a smile and enthusiasm Wonderful property, be it the beach, the grounds, the restaurant or the facilities Go and be spoiled by the beauty of the people and surroundings
