Swagath Holiday Resort

On Kerala’s sun-soaked coast in Kovalam, a short stroll from the sand. Swagath Holiday Resort sits in Neyyattinkara — about a 4-minute walk to Kovalam Beach and roughly 12 minutes to Lighthouse Beach, with Vellayani Lake and Trivandrum Intl. Airport (TRV) close by.

An intimate beach resort with 17 guestrooms that mix comfort and simple coastal style. Rooms offer private bathrooms with rainfall showerheads, desks and safes, plus daily housekeeping and cable entertainment. Public spaces include a rooftop terrace, garden, library and both indoor and outdoor pools, plus a massage room for Ayurvedic and wellness treatments.

Rooftop terrace views and a garden set the scene for laid-back beach days and sea-breeze mornings. Swim in indoor or outdoor pools, book restorative Ayurvedic massages, or let the concierge set up tours, transfers and excursions. Onsite services include a gift shop/newsstand, wedding services, luggage safe and free self-parking.

Conference-ready with about 1,497 sq ft of event space and two meeting rooms. A business center, complimentary wireless internet in public areas, newspapers in the lobby and laundry/dry-cleaning services keep business trips running smooth.
