Fodor's Expert Review Manaltheeram Ayurveda Beach Village

Manaltheeram Rd., Chowara, Kerala, 695501, India

This strictly ayurvedic resort is quieter and even closer to the water than its neighboring sister property, Somatheeram Beach Resort. Its simple, circular brick cottages are neatly arrayed on ascending terraces—the rooms inside are small, with red oxide floors. "Special" cottages have better sea views. Alcohol is not permitted.

PROS

  • quiet, exclusive beachfront
  • some restaurant tables set up on the beach
  • lots of good handicraft, clothing, and knickknack shops nearby

CONS

  • the ayurveda on offer is below average
  • a little short on amenities
  • dishes with meat are limited, and need to be requested
