Lovely Boat Access, Not-So-Lovely Rooms

hitesh p.family

I recently stayed at Poovar Island Resort, and the first thing I have to say is that the location is its biggest highlight. Reaching the property by boat feels special. The surroundings are calm and beautiful, and the resort itself has the potential to give you that perfect island getaway vibe. But once you get past the setting, things start to dip. The resort has every amenity you’d expect on paper, but the people and the upkeep don’t match the standard. The staff isn’t very welcoming, which you immediately feel from the moment you check in. For a place of this category, you expect warmer service and better communication. The rooms need serious maintenance. Walls look old, paint is peeling, taps don’t work properly, and hot water is hit or miss. Some rooms don’t even have basic items like a hair dryer. When you’re paying for a premium stay, these are small things but they matter. Because the property is huge, housekeeping takes a long time to respond. If you call them for anything, be ready to wait. And one more thing: the checkout experience feels rushed. If your checkout is at 11, they start calling you from 10 and make sure you’re out by 11 or 11:15. It doesn’t feel guest-friendly at all. Overall, the place has charm because of its location, but the stay felt average. With the same budget, Poovar has other resorts that offer better rooms and better service. I’d say enjoy the boat ride and the views, but think twice before picking this one.

Avoidable

komal k.family with 1 kid

We stayed here for two nights. This is an old property. Highlights: The location is scenic, and the overall experience of reaching the property by boat was unique and enjoyable. Areas of Concern: The hygiene standards were disappointing. The iron table provided, the massage room, and the general ambience did not meet expectations. The service quality was poor. This was disheartening, as such treatment is rare to experience in India. Unfortunately, this left us regretting our decision to book this property.

I stayed at Poovar Island Resort for one night over the weekend. The location is undoubtedly beautiful and serene — perfect for a relaxing getaway. The staff were welcoming and the hospitality was commendable, which made the short stay pleasant. However, I felt that I couldn't fully enjoy the experience due to limited time and the fact that most of the amenities and activities close by 7 PM. This early cutoff made the evening feel a bit uneventful. Also, while the setting and service were nice, the food didn’t quite live up to expectations. Overall, it’s a great place if you’re staying for longer and can explore everything during the day. For short stays or late arrivals, it might not offer the best value.
