Poovar food, sight-seeing and shopping options
Poovar is still less cluttered with the so-called 'free-to-trade bohemian attitude' shops ok Kovalam. Poovar tries to tie you onto the real cause of travel - vacation. Since the USP of the place is being surrounded by water, one has to rely on the occassional boat trips if the hunger is for world-cuisine, you know what I mean !?

Ajith, Mumbai | 24th January 2008
Hotel Review of Poovar Island Resort
Comments: It's the idyllic silent getaway that all of us dream about when stressed at work. What's unique is the confluence of silent backwaters and roaring seas which makes Poovar an exciting paradox!
Best Experience: The evening sunset boat ride is a revelation
Worst Experience: The room service could be faster....but then it gives you much more time to whet your apetite!

Hotel Review of Poovar Island Resort
Poovar is excellent location. The resort is uniquely located. Take an auto rickshaw from Trivandrum (35 km, 1 hr drive, Rs 350). After you reach the boat jetty it is a 15 minute motor boat ride (free) to the resort through the backwaters. Floating cottages had been removed due to a government order. The resort informed us 1 day in advance. However the land cottages are also excellent. There is a beach on the opposite side (approachable by boat). The backwaters...

Hotel Review of Poovar Island Resort
Poovar is a pristine island set in the green & lush bacgrounds of God's own country. Unspoiled & miraculously unexplored,Poovar is truly a window into paradise.The island is enveloped by calm backwaters that open out into the sea,beaches with golden sands & a peace that is only punctuated by the sound of waves & the chirping of the birds....

Hotel Review of Poovar Island Resort
Poovar.. the word brings to mind open blue skies (i've never seen such a bright blue before), the beach, the backwaters and the rows and rows of palm trees, all together. And the absence of city sounds like cars, traffic, tv etc. The only sounds you hear are the birds and the waves. Poovar Island Resort certainly get full marks for their location. We travelled from Mumbai to Trivandrum. An hour's car ride took us from the airport to the...

Hotel Review of Poovar Island Resort
Overall an excellent place to spend a quiet relaxing holiday amidst serene and beautiful surroundings. Food choice is limited and quite expensive. There is very little for children to do apart from the swimming pool, no activity centre or other games....

Hotel Review of Poovar Island Resort
we stayed in a Floating cottage on the river Poovar facing the Arabian sea. The access to the resort is thru a ferry ride of about 15 mins. the cottage was well furnished with living and bedroom. Microwave oven, coffee maker & juicer with cutlery & crockery has been provided. The view of sunset was great. A small patch of land (seashore) separates the river from the sea. a few minutes ride on a ferry across to the beach enables one...

Hotel Review of Poovar Island Resort
Its was simply one of the best location we have been. Kerela with its green cover can mesmerise any soul. The resort is well situated with good facilities. Its close proximity (30mins drive) to Kovalam beach is an added advantage, although Kanyakumari is quite far (80kms approx)....
