Marari Beach Resort Alleppey- a CGH Earth Experience

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

Good to stay with family

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.

There can be no question that this hotel offers everything a guest could want - and does it excellently. The layout of the property is delightful and a beach is at hand as well. One can take as much, or little, of activities on offer. Noteworthy is the Farm to Kitchen. Wonderful! - with plaudits to chef Divia. Lovely staff make the place hum *****. Special mention here of delightful Anushka, in charge of the arranging activities.
