My experience at the resort was truly delightful! The serene location right on the coast allowed for peaceful nights, listening to the gentle waves. The staff was exceptionally kind and attentive, especially towards my elderly parents. However, I did notice that the absence of a refrigerator and TV in the room might be an issue for some travelers. Overall, it was a tranquil getaway that I would happily revisit.

The Bluewater Beach Resort is located in an incredible area, almost like a private beach, which made our stay peaceful and relaxing. The staff truly went above and beyond to ensure we had an enjoyable experience. While the food was excellent and reasonably priced, the service in the restaurant was a bit slow at times, which detracted from our overall experience. The cottages were charming but could use some minor improvements to fully enhance the comfort.

My stay at this resort was incredibly relaxing, thanks to its peaceful surroundings and attentive staff. The location is a bit removed from the bustling parts of Varkala, which I really appreciated for a quieter experience. The rooms were comfortable but could use a bit of updating, and the dining options were satisfactory with room for improvement in breakfast variety. Overall, it's a great value for money given the beautiful view and serene environment.

The resort benefits from an amazing location right by the ocean, perfect for beach lovers. The cottages are intriguing with a rustic charm, but don't expect luxury. Unfortunately, the service can be quite slow at times, and the dining experience was hit or miss. Overall, it provides good value for the money if you enjoy the unique atmosphere.
