The Travancore Heritage Beach Resort

Lovely staff, wonderful location.

We booked the premium suite for a 3 night stay recently. The room was in a good condition and the balcony was huge with a great view! Amenities were good, however there was hardly any pressure in the shower. Light switches are very inconveniently located behind the bed head and hard to reach! And there are too many of them - we had to call housekeeping to help us switch off a light the first night as we couldn't licate the switch! The buffet breakfast included was quite average - we had better breakfast at cheaper properties during our trip. Staff was very courteous but service was slow and language was a problem with some staff not really fluent in Hindi or English. We noticed quite a few international guests at the property so I think it would be good to have staff at the front desk that is fluent in English. Overall, for the price we paid, I think we could've got better properties.

The hotel itself is nice, beautiful surroundings and views. The room are clean. The only downpoint is the hotel only allows uber to drop guests not to collect guests from thw hotel, or you pay the triple of the price charged by an uber to a hotel driver or you have to walk to the street to the main road to get your taxi. Thats what happened to me, I don't like to feel coerced to do something. So I had to walk on street with my big luggage to get an uber, as they dont allow guest to have freedom of choice how they want to go around. I travelled over 30 countries stayed in 1 to 5 stars hotel and NEVER had this kind of experience.

Great sea view from the room. Beautiful premises with lot of unique plants and flowers. Walkable distance to the beach.Excellent facilities and ayurvedic treatment options.

Near by property noise was loud from nearby area, too loud speaker noise in the mornings and evenings
