Getting There - 2hrs drive from Kochi airport. The hotel arranged for a transfer taxi. 5,000/- one way.
Arrival- Welcomed with chandan tika, welcome drink, cold towel and a big smile by the staff.
Room- Got it early then the checkin time. Rooms are big, well lit with good views. But they need a lot of maintenance and refurbishment.
Hotel- Green, peaceful, clean.
Food & Restaurants - Only 1 restaurant with limited menu. But everything we ordered was delicious and good in portion size.
The location of the resort by the lake is the highlight. The open dining hall/restaurant and the view of the long nice looking pool(infinity pool according to them) with flowering trees and greenery around it, extending almost upto or giving a visual effect of stretching to the lake is a visual treat. The cool breeze from lake, flows over the pool and reach us giving a soothing effect while dining at restaurant. Food is good enough. Rooms are comfortable enough. I think it was a value for money stay.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had an amazing stay at VIP Garden in Varkala! 🌴 The resort’s lush gardens and tranquil atmosphere provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. 🛌🍃. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to relax and enjoy a serene getaway! 🌟
