Rooms & Cottages

Marari Beach Resort offers Garden Villas, Garden Villas with Pool, and Deluxe Garden Villas with Private Pool. Each villa features clay-tiled roofs, open-air bathrooms, and private sit-out areas. The Deluxe Pool Villas include a separate living room, a spacious bedroom, and a larger private pool. One villa is wheelchair-friendly with no steps and bathroom railings. Housekeeping adds floral art to beds using local flowers.

Dining & Cuisine

The resort has two dining options: Chakara Restaurant serves Indian and continental buffets, with Kerala specialties like Chemeen Manga Curry and Kozhi Kurumulagu roast. The Beach Shack offers Italian flatbreads with an Indian twist and hosts barbecue nights twice a week. Ingredients come from the resort's 4-acre organic garden, where guests can pick fresh produce for the chef to prepare.

Activities & Wellness

Guests can join morning fishing trips to the nearby village harbor, cycle through coconut groves, or take backwater cruises on Vembanad Lake. The Ayurveda center provides treatments using oils from the onsite medicinal garden. Daily yoga sessions are held by the beach. The saltwater pool, butterfly garden, and naturalist-led walks showcase 97 butterfly species and 350 endemic plants.

Location & Access

The resort is on Marari Beach, 75 km from Cochin International Airport. Nearby landmarks include Mararikulam Mahadeva Temple (3 km) and Arthunkal Church (7 km). The property borders a fishing village where daily fish auctions take place. Electric bicycles are available for exploring the area.

Sustainability & Services

Marari Beach eliminates plastic bottles by using earthenware containers for toiletries. Food waste fuels biogas plants, and dry waste is recycled. The resort partners with local women's groups for handmade cotton towels. WiFi is available, but the library and hammocks encourage unplugged relaxation. The front desk arranges village visits and backwater tours.

“This resort excels as a beachfront destination with remarkable eco-conscious practices, and I particularly appreciate the commitment to sustainability and the organic farm managed by local farmers. The design reflects the charm of a traditional fishing village, while the Ayurvedic treatments and naturalist-led tours enrich the stay. Although there is no television, it's a minor drawback when considering this hotel's commitment to relaxation and wellness.”
