    A beautifully maintained beachfront resort with lush greenery and a serene vibe. The pool is lovely, the staff are warm and attentive, and every detail feels thoughtfully cared for — from the clean surroundings to the showers and water tap for rinsing off beach sand. A peaceful escape by the sea. 🌿🌊

    Good Property - sea facing but need maintenance

    adwaith h.family with 1 kid

    The experience was really good. The rooms were very clean. Overall the property is bit old and needs maintenance. We had booked a pool view room and the pool was under maintenance. Hence, they provided complimentary dinner. Otherwise, the cost of food is extremely high. For eg, 1 plate banana fry + 3 tea costed me 1032 rupees, was it worth is, absolutely No. positives - clean rooms and washrooms, sea facing property with no rush. Food menu was limited but whatever they provided was really good and freshly made. Hopefully maintenance is taken care in the future and I would like to visit again.

    This resort is a perfect getaway with direct access to a super clean, serene beach. The property is well-maintained and spotless. Food is freshly prepared to order and tastes amazing. Slight downside—it’s slightly expensive, and there’s no bar, but overall a great stay for a peaceful, relaxing vacation.

    Quiet and Good Resort

    vipin v.family

    I went with my family on the weekend to this resort. The service and rooms were excellent and the resort had a direct private beach area which was Nice. The pool was also very clean and neat. The Royal villa has a roof top open bathroom which was also nice. The food in the restaurant is too expensive. Even a Tea costs 120/- thats something we were worried.

    True to its name, the property is beautifully secluded from the city’s hustle. But honestly, you won’t feel the need to step out at all, gorgeous beach, delicious food, a spotless pool, and the kindest staff we’ve come across. Loved every bit of our stay and would definitely return on our next Kerala trip!

    vinod k.family

    Good stay and good property and good staff but food is super expensive similar to the rates if we eat in Germany. E.g. rate for one Kerala Porota is Rs.100/-. Being a Malayalee, I find  no logic to charge such high for food in a Kerala village resort of this catergory.

    Not Recommended – Lacks Basics Despite Premium Pricing

    prasadh p.family

    We stayed at Seclude Kerala, Marari Sands with family last Thursday and Friday. Overall, the experience was disappointing. There was no staff at the front desk initially, though someone who came later was supportive and helpful. No welcome drinks or warm reception were offered. There was no manager or responsible person present during our stay. The restaurant had very limited food options for lunch, and the pricing was shockingly high—beyond even 7-star property rates, which felt completely unjustified. We booked a Premium Villa room, but it was just average and not worth the money. Cleanliness was very poor, and the air conditioner didn’t work properly, making it hard to stay during the hot summer days. Would not recommend this place based on our experience.
