This is a good cost effective hotel with a wonderful location. it has almost a private beach which can be enjoyed from the Sea View Room. The swimming pool is a bit small but clean and at a good location. Food options are good. The best feature is its Sea View room and private beach accessibility.

4th time at the Palm Shore, 4th great stay for an Ayurvedic-Yoga package. Staff GREAT, Ayurvedic excellent, Rooms lovely - ask for rooms between 411 and 415 , near the cottages- we loved it. Thank you!

Soma Palmshore is an amazing resort the location is amazing and it has its own private beach but it is still very close to lighthouse Beach. The staff and the service is exceptional and the rooms are very clean, comfortable and have good views of the sea. The swimming pool is fabulous. The food and service in the restaurant was excellent and the staff looked after us so very well especially the restaurant manager Sivaraj and his staff of which Dhanesh was very helpful. The front of house staff lead by Baiju were also most helpful. In fact we loved Soma Place so much we stayed an extra four nights. We also had a great ayurvedic massage here. We will come back when we are next in Kerala. We were made so welcome it felt like home.

Stayed in sea view cottage (room no. 110) for 2 nights. Never before i felt this close to sea while sleeping at night, considering all the beach side hotels I have stated before. Check in was prompt, welcome drink was provided on arrival. Staff are courteous. The cottage we stayed is the nearest to the sea, with a fenced sit out/ lawn and hammock to enjoy the sea. The cottage itself is small with an ante- room and a toilet. Toileteries were of good quality , linen was clean and towels were changed everyday. The cottage has no ceiling fan but had a good AC. Cotton Mosquito net was there over the bed in typical Kerala style. From evening you cannot keep the door of the room open due to mosquitoes. Bed was comfortable , an extra cot was there in the room. Food is very reasonably priced considering the location and of good quality. The hotel has it's own private beach which is small but more or less clean and there is hotel appointed life guards during swimming hours which is very thoughtful of the management. Adequate security guards are posted throughout 24 hours and so you feel quite safe even if the cottage is secluded away from the main hotel building. Overall I liked the stay very much.

Pretty rooms, good food. Buffet dinner available. The hotel has a nice pool and access to beach as well.. The sea facing rooms are really nice. The hotel is very close to the lighthouse and has Ayurvedic massages and spa available.

I had visited with family to Kovalam and stayed in Soma Palmshore. It has spacious rooms, which are super clean and with very polite staffs. I would like to special mention of Mr. Baiju, the hotel manager who has taken extreme care of our small needs and has taken every care to help us out. For instance, we had a very early check out, but he could arrange packed breakfast for us!! It was very nice and understanding on his part to help us with such small things which made our stay very comfortable and convenient, especially when we had small kids with us. Overall a great experience!!

Excellent hospitality with delicious food and atmosphere.Quick response from supporting staffs especially from Mr.Baiju. Hotel and rooms are neat,spacious and offer better privacy. Hotel have a beach view theme with traditional background.

Good place to visit. Enjoyed a lot. Had good fun in the beach and swimming pool. Good hospitality,friendly staff and a great view of beach.Looking forward to visit again??. Lastly, I would like to congratulate them on getting national award.

I am an experiensed traveler, have visited many places in India and have lived in many hotels. I may compare and write my experience with this reason . It was my second visit to Kovalam and the second stop at the Hotel Soma Palmshore from 27 september till 2 October 2018. Remembering a pleasant staying at this hotel first time, 5 years ago, and my desire to return there, I didn't consider other options for other staying. And I wasn't mistaken in my re-choise. Of course, I note that the hotel needs repairs, especially the bathrooms. But this reason doesn't spoil the good mood of the good friendly atmosphere that accompanies you everywhere. The hotel is wonderfully located, with its own private beach in the arounding of coconut palms. So you will feel free on the beach, what is very important reason for the beaches of India. Steps lead you to the beach, this way is also a good natural training apparatus. If you prefer to lie down with a book nearby the pool or swim in the pool - you see a good pool with clean water . You booking simple, but very clean, comfortable room, with a wonderful big balcony and sea views. You can sleep with the sound of the waves. Try to choose a higher floor in the main building. You can get an Ayurvedic treatment if you bookig this hotel. You will be greeted by the competent consultation of the doctor of Ayurveda and the caring hands of the masters of massage. If you want to stay in hotel , there is a good restaurant with quality food and normal prices. If you want go for a walking, the lighthouse beach promenade with many differents restaurants situated not far away. So there you have a choice. I especially want to tell about good work of the attendants, starting from the lobby, very kind concierge and ending with the employees of the restaurant and security. If fate brings me back to Kerala and Trivandrum, I will not look for any other hotel, but will stay again at my beloved Soma Palmshore. This is the best advertisement for the hotel, I think. Thank you and see you again !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent location with good ambience . We had a week stay for Ayurvedic treatment. Enjoy a natural Ayurveda healing treatment with purely natural materials. Our cottage is very near to sea. Nice place , nice people . Surely I will come one more time to soma palm shore.
