Garuda Suites

A landmark of opulence nestled in Varkala's vibrant heart, Garuda Suites is not merely a hotel; it's an experience that embodies the essence of Kerala's rich culture and coastal charm. Strategically located just 1.5 km from Odayam Beach, the entrance enchants with a harmonious blend of modern design and traditional artistry, setting a tone of refined elegance. The lobby greets guests with its soaring ceilings and striking artworks that capture the spirit of the region. Here, the ambience is infused with a subtle aroma of fresh coconut and spices, welcoming you to your coastal retreat. One is instantly plunged into a world of plush seating and artisanal décor; the art installations draw you deeper into the narrative of Kerala's heritage, drawing comparisons between contemporary motifs and age-old craftsmanship. Move upstairs to find the rooftop lounge, where evening cocktails offer breathtaking views of the sunset painting the cliffs and ocean in a blend of gold and crimson.

Explore the Local Area

Garuda Suites lies at a confluence of cultural allure and natural beauty, setting you up for a superb exploration of Varkala. The nearby Varkala Cliff, just a kilometer away, beckons with its stunning views and vibrant cafés. String together visits to the Janardanaswamy Temple and Varkala Beach, both within a 1.5 km radius; or embark on a spiritual journey to the Sivagiri Mutt, located merely 4 km from the property. For those wishing to explore further, the iconic Napier Museum and the revered Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple await, approximately 46 km distant. Thiruvananthapuram International Airport is a convenient 45 km away, easily accessible by car, ensuring your journey to this paradise remains seamless.

Each room is air-conditioned and equipped with functional amenities: flat-screen TVs, plush bedding, soundproof walls, and an abundance of natural light. The apartments elevate the experience, featuring separate living spaces and well-appointed kitchens, complete with cookware, utensils, and a sleek stovetop.

Balconies are available in select suites, perfect for savoring your morning tea amidst serene views. The distinguished double rooms range from 350 to 450 sq ft, allowing for intimate settings complete with private entrances and thoughtful amenities that celebrate your stay.

“The apartments certainly offer space, situated at a walkable distance between the beach and town; a convenient supermarket isn't far either. While the location is a fifteen-minute walk to the cliff, the generous size of the apartments is a definite plus. A solid choice for families who value room to spread out.”
