Turtle beach is very special, not just because the grounds are so beautiful & peaceful, it is the wonderful staff who are so friendly and did everything possible to make our stay fantastic . We would like to thank Anu & Megha in reception, Bibin & his team in the restaurant, R Srikanth & his housekeeping team who looked after our room. A special thank you to Francis for looking after Sundari. I had 2 treatments in the Ayurveda centre which I found very beneficial, the 2 ladies that provided the treatments were very good. The presence of the wildlife & birds adds to the ambience of the gardens. It was very difficult to leave having to say goodbye to the staff who we consider as friends.

Our cottage was brand-new and very clean. The food was just delicious but each time we had to wait up to one hour for the food to arrive (better to place your order in advance over the phone). ##### Michal ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin H, UK Mar 26, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### not slick but a great stay We arrived after staying at a hotel that was really smart and everything slick - all manicured and spotless. Our first impressions of Turtle beach was not so impressive. But staying there for 5 nights we found that the well cared for but less manicured look was what gave it its relaxed charm. This was a great stay with people who couldn't do enough to make our stay all we wanted. The location was beautiful as were the beaches and staff help on the beach. Food was always good and reasonably priced - I give it five because it was such a good relaxed and welcoming stay, could some things be improved sure but it took nothing away fro our time there. ##### Martin H Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Anne, UK Mar 11, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice hotel, location and staff The staff make your stay really pleasant.

There are many birds to watch and there is a beautiful butterfly garden and an organic vegetable garden you can wander through. This being an eccentric place in my opinion, it is also unusual in that there are a herd of beautiful, gentle cattle kept on the site including a tiny calf when we visited. Food was very good, staff friendly and helpful. The Ayurerdic spa is basic but the treatments are good and affordable. The only thing I thought could be improved on was the addition of more umbrellas both on the beach and by the pool as there wasn't enough shade. However each bungalow has a private shaded veranda which are lovely, although more comfortable seating would have been a bonus. I can recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxed, laid back time and it will be particularly appreciated by those with a love of nature. ##### lynne Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 22, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Dejligt strandhotel i et roligt område Det er et lille, behageligt hotel ved en god strand.

We were pleased to see that nothing had changed in the resort, the grounds were as beautiful as last year with an abundance of birds & wildlife. The service & friendliness from all the staff is 1st class & the food in the restaurant is delicious, both the buffet & a la carte. This visit we took a Houseboat cruise on Abad's own Houseboat, this we really enjoyed, the staff were friendly & the meal provided was excellent, the Houseboat itself was also of an excellent standard. As mentioned previously, the area outside of the hotel is not a tourist resort but a traditional fishing village, this is one of the reasons we love it here. It will not appeal to people who want tourist shops & restaurants. I just hope that Marari beach stays as it is now & does not get spoilt by getting too touristy like Goa. ##### Carol Stayed 14 nights in Sep 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 14, 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Every thing is good except the food The resort is excellent and every thing is very good except the food ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Aurelia Jan 4, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Aurelia ### 8/10 Good #### patricia Dec 26, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful gardens and hotel We loved our stay, the staff, especially at reception is exceptional. The lack of liqueur licence is a bit of a disappointment. It's always nice to have a cocktail on vacation. ##### patricia ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol Sep 18, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful & peaceful We stayed for 13 nights in a detached villa which was next to the beach. From the time we arrived to our depature the service at Abad Turtle beach was 6\*. The grounds are beautiful & it very peaceful the only sound coming from the birds & the sea! The butterfly garden is lovely & there is an abundance of wildlife such as Indian palm squirrels, various birds & fruit bats which you will see from 5pm. It was also fantastic to sea the Sea Eagles fishing off the beach. The food in the restaraunt both breakfast & evening meal were excellent. There is a lovely clean swimming pool here too. The area surrounding the hotel is not a tourist resort but a traditional Kerala fishing village, which is why we choose this hotel. Don't come here if you want tourist shops & restaurants, but do come to enjoy the nature & to relax. ##### Carol ### 10/10 Excellent #### Soudipto Jun 1, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### An amazing beach hotel; a sort of smart village. The hotel premise is like a modern, smart village. It's a huge property and itself can be considered as a touristic spot. An environment friendly battery operated car made our stay easy to move from one spot to another. it's very useful for the older guests. Cycle track, children park, indoor play and the pool are other facilities to make the guests full time busy. I will definitely return into this property in future and recommend my friends and relatives to avail. ##### Soudipto ### 8/10 Good #### Mark, Upminster Apr 20, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful grounds Lovely room in beautiful grounds.

At the outset i expected the hotel and the service to be excellent... However we were surprised.. and not pleasantly at that... From the beginning the service was more a forced measure than a heartfelt one... The check in and out timings are ridiculous.. The meal timing even more so... Who starts a lunch at 1 pm, specially with children around.. And no room service at that.. Beat that.. So we had to go out for each meal.. The only meal we did have.. the complimentary breakfast was vaguely intresting at best.. The beach which is supposed to be the unique selling point was a long long walk away in the blistering sun with people asking you your room number before you enter the beach compound.. The butterfly garden was the only saving grace.. That too visiting children were busy ripping the wings off the less than abundant butterfly population.. All in all an experience i would rather not repeat or recommend.. ##### Abhisheik ### 8/10 Good #### George, Kochi Jun 24, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A good holiday resort. We had a good holiday at Abad Turtle Beach Resort for two days. The room was kept in good condition and the service was promt. ##### George ### 6/10 Okay #### Ray, COK Apr 24, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Reasonably good getaway location Nice location, natural / organic environment. Would have be an awesome holiday had the aircon been working in good condition, not attended to effectively despite several calls. Seemed as though the resort was short on manpower as it took them almost half an hour to send the cart / bell boy to pick up luggage while checking out ##### Ray ### 8/10 Good #### Melanie und Andreas, Deutschland Apr 21, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Super Preis Leistungsverhältnis Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Strandabschnitt ist wesentlich schöner als bei der Konkurrenz. Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt und schön, die Zimmer sauber und gut gelegen.
