POOVAR ISLAND RESORT

On the south-west coast of India, in between the Arabian Sea and the majestic mountains of the Western Ghats, lies a narrow strip of beautiful land, a bountiful land famed for its awe-inspiring natural beauty. Yet there is much more to explore in Kerala, an island of indescribable beauty, just 30 minutes from Thiruvananthapuram, the capital city of Kerala. It is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, hidden amidst swaying coconut palms, endless golden sands and lush vegetation. The bus station is around 2 km from the resort and the train station is located in Trivandrum, roughly 28 km away.Unspoilt and miraculously unexplored, Poovar Island is a rare find in southern Kerala. Enveloped by the most serene backwaters and opening out to the sea and an enchanting golden beach, this resort is truly a window into the paradise.
