Really enjoyed our stay at waters edge! Couldn’t fault it cheap & cheerful.. lovely big terrace outside our room overlooking our own bit of beach & terrace was perfect for sunbathing! If you’re looking for a chilled out few days would highly recommend coming here! Nextflix on the tv was a bonus which we hadn’t had yet in india( need your own account)..  Manager Sanal was very helpful in every way he could be and speaks very good English , he made the trip very enjoyable
🇬🇧

Great stay! Loved it

Such a relaxing place for a long or short stay much better than room at large hotel
The staff are so helpful and friendly and the seagull restaurant (which belongs to hotel) serves excellent food what more can you ask 
Situated on the beach in Kovalam 
A perfect base to suit your pocket too

Relax in kerala

I was happy with the attitude of the Staff Mr.Manoj.
But, if you want a star category accommodation, this place is not for you.

It is situated right at the "edge" of the Samudra beach.
But, the beach is a Rocky beach. So, we can't wet your feet in the waves.

Most of the highest star rated hotels are situated in this area. But, the place is not clean. So, it is not pleasant to roam around.
A lot of hotels are situated very near to the Kovalam beach, which is a sandy beach. If you want to feel that waves, choose that area.

This hotels pros are 
1.Not a cramped room 
2. Very near to the sea 
3. Friendly Staff.

Cons are 
1.Though they are trying to maintain it cleanly, it is not maintained professionally. 
2. No hot water available. 
3. At the time of our visit, Satellite TV wasn't working. 
4. Intercom wasn't working. 
5. The hotel has neither restaurant nor room service. They provided breakfast, procured from outside vendors. It has no choice.(First day, they provided 3 dosais with sambhar, without any chytneys.) 
6. The room has a sea view balcony. But, it's very narrow and hence not comfortable to use.
What I made to offer 2 stars, apart from all these shortcomings, is the very low price I paid.

In India, there is no institutionalised mechanism to define the star rating. So, hotels are using star rating on their own. This property doesn't have any star category amenities and deserves no star rating.

Another issue with this area is, local cab operators are not allowing, Ola like services for pick-up. So, we need to depend the hotel administration for cab. Here, they were unable to get any such service. So, I got a cab by googling, with name Pavi Travels (Mobile No.09446826872). They are very much friendly and charged nominally.

Finally, I surely recommend this property for those who seek some budget accommodation near the sea. Otherwise, search for you requirements and don't rely on the published photos.

Budget accommodation, OK for the price

After a very Long Trip from Delhi, 20 days Rajistan Tour , Kolkata, Mumbai, Veranassi and Trivvandrum, we were feeling very tired 
And on the 15th of February 2019 we arrived at Waters Edge BeachResort at Samudra Beach in Kovalam.This Resort was a big lucky for us,as it gave us all that we were Looking for : a very peacful good Location, Leisure and Relax in a very natural Situation, sorounded wth greeness, singing birds and sea view good Food with Fresh fish The Management and all staff members were friendly and helpful.After ten days we managed to make Friends and COMRADES ! We look Forward to meet again one day !?  .

One of our Highlights of vour months India Trip

Nothing in the hotel. I wondered how people can give it 4/5 *. If you ask Me I will give stars in negative. Unpleasant, dirty, expensive rooms having rs.400/500 level no food available for vegetarians. In short poor quality maintained in all staff, room, restaurant, food and all. Though they offer free stay don't go....

West of Money

We’ve stayed at the Waters Edge 3 times (so far). I can’t think why I haven’t reviewed it before! 

It provides exactly what you would expect/hope for in a low to medium priced B & B/hotel. The rooms are large and clean. In our case with a balcony facing the lake. 

Breakfast not extensive but perfectly adequate, and service friendly.

Wifi (after some hiccups in previous years) now available on all floors.

Located right on the beach it’s an ideal location to venture out from each day, whether for a sightseeing trip or just sitting by the beach watching the world go by, particularly the fishermen hauling in their nets (and occasionally a wedding celebration).

Reception team, led by Sanal S. (who sorted the wifi problem) always helpful and friendly.  Sanal also worked a minor miracle sorting out a problem we had elsewhere.
 
Already booked in for next year…

We really like it here!

We just enjoyed this small hotel with nice sea-view for a night and we did appreciate the excellent and friendly service of Mr. Sarath helping us on any issue. Clean rooms and informal reception make it a good quality to price ratio hotel.
Very good pashmina / cashmire shop just aside of it!

Warm service

I had booked at treebo water edge. I arrived at 2pm and was shown a room and then a restaurant next to the hotel. I had a friend who was also in Kovalam and felt that I really didn't want to stay on the water edge and it became a room available at my friend's hotel. so I ask the manager at 3.30 pm if I can cancel (as it says in the agreement with the booking), but the manager says I have to pay 8 (!) days. I check again via booking.se and have the right to cancel without charge until 18.00. and I do it by phone and get a confirmation that it is canceled without charge. I still offer money for one night. it turns and gets uncomfortable with the manager and he starts by standing in front of me so that I should not be able to go and grab my packing. Well outside on the street I try to get a taxi but he tells them that I have not paid. so no one wants to drive me. He also has my passport and says that he called Indian police and that there will be great difficulties for me. he is also very threatening. I have been involved in a lot in India but this is among the most unpleasant. My friend must therefore send a taxi so that I will take me from there. everything worked until I said I didn't want to stay. hopefully no one else needs to be exposed to this.
