Reviews and Ratings
My stay at Papukutty resort had its ups and downs. The location was nice with coconut palms and a sea view, but there were issues with the water turning green and the breakfast was not up to par. The rooms were clean and had hot water in the morning, but the sea view was limited. The service was very nice, and the staff was polite and cooperative. However, the dining experience was not impressive, though the facilities were satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms could be more clean and comfortable, with a very bad smell and low lighting, but they did have hot water in the morning, which was a plus for my family. The service was very nice overall, with polite and helpful staff, even if I had to ask multiple times for the same thing. The location, while it had some issues like green water and being in need of renovation, was fine for beach lovers. The dining experience was just okay, with room for improvement, especially the buffet breakfast with sourdough bread. Overall, the facilities were decent despite the room for enhancements.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with friendly staff, although the dining experience could be improved with more variety. The location is ideal for beach lovers, but some issues like water quality were noted. Overall, a good value for money option.
The hotel's rooms are clean, comfortable, and equipped with hot water in the morning hours, perfect for my family. The staff is exceptionally polite, helpful, and cooperative, going above and beyond in assisting us multiple times. The location, right by the sea shore in Kovalam beach, is ideal for beach enthusiasts. However, the dining experience offered only partially cooked breakfast items with limited supply, which was disappointing.

The location is excellent, being on the beach. However, the dining experience was super pathetic. The facilities were okay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were adequate, but I had some issues with the room allocation and the limited sea view from the balcony. On the bright side, hot water was available in the morning. The service was generally good, with polite and cooperative staff. The location was convenient, right in front of the beach, but some areas require renovation. The dining experience left much to be desired, with limited breakfast options and poor quality. Overall, the value for money was questionable.
The hotel had a mix of pros and cons. While the rooms seemed dilapidated and potentially haunted, there was hot water available as promised, although it seemed to be linked to the kitchen staff room. The service was very nice, with polite and helpful staff, although perhaps a bit too persistent at times. The location was pleasant, surrounded by coconut palms with a sea view, yet there were issues with water quality and breakfast offerings. The dining experience was not impressive, even though it was included with the rooms. The overall facilities had elements that could have been improved.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was great, right on the beach, with a beautiful view of the sea. The rooms, unfortunately, were a bit of a letdown as they looked worn out and uncared for. The staff, however, were polite and helpful throughout my stay.
The hotel has a great location right on Kovalam beach with a small pathway leading to the sandy shores. The rooms had a bad smell and low lighting, but were fine in the morning hours with hot water available. The service was very polite, helpful, and cooperative. The dining experience needs improvement, and the facilities could be better.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms had a view of the sea only from one corner of the balcony, and they had a very bad smell along with very low lighting.

The location was nice with coconut palms and a view out to sea, though the breakfast options were limited. The dining was delicious, but there is room for improvement. The facilities were decent overall.
