“Gokulam Grand Turtle On The Beach benefits from its location as the first property on Kovalam Beach, providing direct access and beautiful views. I particularly note the consistently kind and helpful staff, who seem to go above and beyond. Its banquet hall, uniquely set against the backdrop of the beach, struck me as a particularly special feature.”
