The Marari Beach Hotel was the last one on our trip and it was a very chilled place to be On our arrival we had a lovely introduction by Jayakrishnan will sipping a very refreshing drink of Blue Butterfly Pea Flower tea The hotel is part of CGH Earth group and had outstanding environmental practices including paper bags The villa we stayed in was set in beautiful grounds and was very comfortable but some may find the part open-air bathroom a bit strange to start with! It was helpful that they provided mosquito repellent cream and incense sticks 😀 There was a lovely pool area with complimentary towels and water plus bar/ food options and Vishnu gave excellent service and was very friendly and chatty The changing rooms and nearby toilets/ showers were very large There was plenty to do at the hotel including 9am butterfly garden tour ( wear long trousers and have some mosquito repellent on), other nature and wildlife tours. The tour to see owls was amazing (again be sure to wear long trousers and sleeves). Shibu was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife and helped the group to spot various owls and other birds and to take great photos using his telescope The afternoon tea stall run by locals had lovely tea/ coffee and delicious cake/ treats and other activities such as archery were great fun to try The property has extensive gardens and a number of bars/ restaurants onsite and a reasonably priced shop. It runs down to the beach where it was great to have a stroll, watch the fisherman and see the glorious sunset.
