Kovalam never disappoints! This was my third visit and the tour package was excellent. Clean beaches, good food, and the lighthouse view is iconic. Perfect for beach lovers.
Lovely beaches and friendly locals. The Padmanabhapuram Palace excursion was a nice addition. Beach can get crowded on weekends. Hotel location was perfect - steps from the sand.
Perfect beach getaway! Lighthouse Beach is beautiful, the seafood is fresh, and the sunsets are spectacular. Great value for a weekend escape. Will definitely come back!
