    The hotel is in a stunning position right by the sea. The room was impeccably clean and huge. The bathroom was luxurious, with a bathtub. The hotel is close to the restaurant strip, bars, and the beach. The atmosphere is quiet and peaceful.

    I must say, I got great value for my money at this beach resort. The room was absolutely stunning, clean, and had the most breathtaking view of the ocean. The location was perfect, just a short walk away from the beach, restaurants, and shops. The staff at Little Elephant were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Manoj, the owner, who went above and beyond to ensure I had a fantastic stay.

    Hotel breakfast could use some improvement, maybe more variety or options.

    The rooms were spotless and offered a breathtaking sea-view. the balcony was spacious, providing a panoramic view of the ocean. Our host, TJohn, was incredibly friendly and helpful. the location was perfect with easy access to the beach and all necessary amenities. the air conditioning kept us cool, and the bathroom shower had hot water. We even received a pot to heat water for our coffee or tea. a fantastic stay.

    Felt completely at ease and thoroughly enjoyed our time. No complaints whatsoever.

    I had a fantastic stay at this beach resort. the staff was friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to assist with everything from luggage handling to personal shopping. the rooms were pristine, and I was particularly impressed by the spaciousness and cleanliness. the location was perfect, tucked away from the main beach for a more peaceful atmosphere. I highly recommend Little Elephant Beach Resort for an enjoyable and comfortable stay. Cons: All good! 👍.

    I had an amazing stay at this hotel in Kovalam. The location was perfect, just next to the beach and a short walk away from the light house. The hotel facilities were top notch, with spacious and clean rooms that were almost on par with 5-star standards. The staff was very friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable. Additionally, the hotel had easy access to the beach and was surrounded by everything I needed, from beachside shacks and bars to restaurants and shops. great value for money and I would definitely recommend staying here.

    Don't have any issues at all.
