Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Marari Beach Resort Alleppey - A Cgh Earth Experience from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently praise the spacious bungalows nestled within spectacularly maintained grounds, appreciating the unique open-air bathrooms and thoughtful touches like mosquito repellent. The expansive swimming pool, ranging from 4ft to 8ft in depth, is a highlight, and the Arabian Sea is conveniently close, only 100m from some rooms. While the location is amazing and the food generally good, some guests have noted that restaurant hours started late with dinner beginning at 7:30 p.m. Overall, the resort offers various activities for both adults and children, including evening tea with snacks, a clubhouse for games, and a reading room, with the Shack Bar near the sea being particularly delightful.

The staff was nice and the food was good, I suppose.

The power went out repeatedly. It was annoying. Restaurant options seemed limited for such a large resort. I asked for coconut water by the pool. You would have thought I requested the moon.

The hotel had a plastic-free policy, I observed. Each item in the room seemed eco-friendly. A club house provided in-room games and TV. I also noted a reading room for book lovers.

The restaurant seemed to offer limited options for a resort of this size. The pool was large, i noticed. I couldn't order anything there besides towels and bottles. I observed stray dogs wandering onto the hotel.
