Sprawled across an expanse of 25 acres, Marari Beach Resort is cut off from the sea by a windbreak of stretching palms. There are 52 cottages separated by generous stretches of open parkland dotted with fruit-laden trees, so the sense of space here is very dramatic. The winding pathways are a facsimile of the village lanes.

AYURVEDA: Holistic Health
A popular feature of the Marari experience is the Ayurveda centre. While it is fully equipped for complete treatments of illnesses (these take a week, at the very least), one needs just a relaxing oil or herbal massage to drain away the last residues of urban stress. The open-air yoga classes will have the same effect. These are held at sunrise and sunset with a qualified master in attendance.

ACCOMMODATION
A typical cottage at Marari looks almost identical to a local fisherman's hut. There is the same palm thatch, swooping low over a raised veranda, complete with a little tap by the steps to wash your feet. But appearances are deceptive as you'll discover when you enter. Air conditioning is made possible through a roof invisible from the outside. Simplicity and harmony mark the interiors, which nevertheless contain all the comforts of a modern resort. There are modern twin or double beds; elegant, locally inspired furniture; and even a tea / coffee making facility, for all those odd times.

The bathrooms are open-roofed courtyards, similar to those in the old homes of old Kerala. There's ultra modern plumbing of course, and hot and cold running water too. For the true Sybarites, the spacious Pool Villas are a good option, which feature cosy living rooms with private pools!

Reaching Marari
Marari Resort is located 88 kilometres from the International/domestic airport and 48km from the Railway Station, at Cochin
