    Dear Akhil, rooms are cleaned regularly, especially before the guest's arrival we double-check it. If you felt uncomfortable somehow, we could change your room to another one and make you happier. As your booking was in season off time we had plenty of free rooms for your choice.

    Good Stay

    goutam k.loyalty-icon

    Very good location, only 5 mins away from the main cliff. Clean rooms, and bathroom was decently maintained. There are not a lot of amenities considering that it's a homestay, so bring those items with you. But basic soap and shampoo was available. A kettle was there along with tea bags, etc. Breakfast was fine, for the price we paid. The caretaker jishu was available throughout our stay for any help. Extra bed was not available, but an extra mattress was given upon request. Don't expect an exquisite customer service because there are no trained hotel staff here. Only one caretaker is available for the full property. The main usp has to the proximity to the beach.

    Nice stay nearby beach

    sonam k.loyalty-iconcouple

    Overall stay was good. Room was in homestay. Room and bathroom was as described in pictures, neat and clean. Car parking is available at the location which is more convenient. Also, its at walking discuss to varkala beach (almost 2-3 mins walk. Only thing which we felt was missing is hot water in the bathroom during morning time, since they have solar so hot water is not always available.

    Cleanly room, comfortable bed, balcony, free water refills, good wi-fi location near to beach, have a tap to wash your dirts outside are positives. It was raining heavily, when we were staying. If we had power backup, it would be good. No tv, and that’s a minus

    Had a pleasant stay

    nixon.family

    I planned to explore varkala with my family. I chose gypsy walker. Most of them appreciated for the cleanliness of the guesthouse. And gypsy walker fulfilled all my expectations- initial assistance to reach out to hotel(since it is located in north cliff as one of the homestays surrounded by many homestays)- parking arrangement- though they clearly mentioned in the hotel that they don't provide meals, they arranged milk for my kids in the morning. - and most importantly, they have very neat and clean room, clean sheets, clean balcony for every room, clean toilets.

    As per homestay it was good. I visited in family so all basic needs were fulfilled. I can suggest that it is more better if you prefer solo or in group it will suit your requirements better.
