Just 500 m from the beach an cliffs.  Close to local restaurants and temple.
Reasonable prices, quite clean and quiet place .
The owner was very helpful and agreeable in various situations.
All money owner earn on renting goes to poor people.



I had a good stay.

Theres nothing more humbling than meeting someone who feeds the poor with a smile on his face...simple basic accomodation, lovely rooftop, helps the surrounding poor and is truly a heroe of india..blessed to have stumbled upon this place

Humbling experience

WOW, an absolute highlight of my 2 months in India was staying at Rams Gratitude Inn. here you have the best of everything- supporting a 100% real charity where 100% of donations go to feeding the poorest people of Varkala, the chance to lend a hand and learn about the real India, stunning beaches, quiet streets, tropical plants and beautiful birds. It's all at Rams! I can't wait to go back

Great location, comfortable and a wonderful REAL charity!

The hotel is located very close to pappanasam beach..just 15 steps away..in quite home..great location...we stayed in twin room for 1000 INR...room is very basic..attached bathroom is also very basic...cleaned properly..best part of staying here is the money you provide goes to poor. the owner arranges to provide food every day to at least 108 needy people in varkala and its surrounding area. you can also participate in distributing foods everyday..great initiative... i would have not liked the room otherwise..seeing the genuine effort of the owner i will definitely stay here if I go again to Varkala and will definitely recommend it to the other people...

stay for a cause..

Most has been said about the resort by other reviewers. A regular at this resort the addition of a dormitory has effected the charm of this unique place wrapped in palm and banana trees. However those seeking a more communal place Ram Gratitude Inn has now become one. 

Some confusion regarding Ram’s charity might need clarifying. I can assure you that he is a bonafide organiser of many initiatives to assistant the impoverished elderly in his community. This does not impinge on anyone’s stay but those wishing to do something practical can do so via Ram. I have only known Ram to be noble and unfortunately vulnerable to the crushing criticisms about his much cherished voluntary work in the community. 
I will leave my last lines to WB Yeats ‘thread softly cause you thread on my dreams”

Bonafide Charity worker

Specific, a bit hippie, place with a spiritual atmosphere. Good price. Close to the temple, to local eating and with an inexpensive aiuverdic shop opposite. Close by is a cafe with great ice coffee, and the beach is just down the road. We had to ask for toilet paper or soap, whoich were supposed to be in place, but we have managed.

Nice place, close to the beach

I stayed 2 nights at Rams place with my friend. The location is good, 3 minutes to the beach, The building itself is nice with a nice veranda and AMAZING vegetation around that brings the feel you are in the jungle, with birds singing. This was the best thing for me, the nice veranda and the wild vegetation around. The owner was very nice, he checked us in at 6 or 7 a.m. for which we are very very grateful. The room is very simple, the pillows weren't comfortable at all, there are no bed sheets and no hot water, but there is a private bathroom. Also, the water is from a spring and sometimes comes yellow. Not very clean, not very dirty. Moderate by indian standards, not western standards.
