Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Hotel's Favourite
Our wedding was hosted at the beautiful beach venue at Leela Kovalam and it all happened in an extreme smooth manner just like a dream. Huge thanks to Mr. Prameesh - The way he has coordinated the event couldn’t be any more perfect. He had made sure that every guest was well taken care of. I would recommend anyone planning a wedding in Leela to connect with him and tell your requirements there and he will ensure 100% support to plan your dream. Also I would like to thank Exe Chef Deepak and his colleagues for arranging an amazing buffet spread. They had ensured that the food tasted exactly the same as per the instructions we had given. Arun from banquets had ensured that the service was on point at the venue. Also thanks to Reshma,Austin,Natha from front office for smooth check-in and check-out.

Exceptional!! We stayed 5 nights in the Leela Kovalam and are determined to return. The hotel is beautifully appointed. Probably the nicest lobby of anywhere we have stayed. We stayed in a Seaview Room which has the most spectacular view. It was large and very comfortable with a great king sized bed and efficient aircon. The infinity pool was stunning making the best use of the hotels position on the hillside between the two beaches. Tides restaurant in the private area of the beach served superb seafood along with mainly Thai and wok based dishes. We did feel that the menu lacked local Kerala dishes which could be obtained in the bigger restaurant but we aren’t buffet people (just personal choice). It’s possible to get snacks at the Terrace and the Bistro. The steak sandwich was excellent, squid not just so good. There are plenty of good restaurants along from the back which you can walk to (very rough track) or take a tuk tuk (auto rickshaw) for INR100 (£1). We only had time to eat in The Curry Leaf and the food was beautiful and the view superb. I’d say food outside the resort is around 30% to 40% cheaper and well worth trying at least on a few occasions Breakfast was excellent with delicious fresh fruit, European food and of course lovely Indian dishes What really makes the hotel special however are the hugely engaging, professional and friendly staff who show genuine care.

Leela Kovalam epitomizes luxury and tranquility, nestled on the pristine shores of Kerala's coastline. From the moment you arrive, you're greeted by stunning panoramic views of the Arabian Sea and lush greenery that seamlessly blend with the resort's architecture. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect, from the elegantly appointed rooms and suites to the impeccable service provided by the friendly and attentive staff.

We stayed at Leela Kovalam for 2days. We were upgraded to sea view rooms by Neethu in the reception. A big thank you to her. The welcome was warm. Every staff was smiling and went sn extra mile for us to feel good. Our dinners were made special by Ajus at the restaurant. He made sure we were fed well Dhanya from housekeeping was also always with a smile, doing her job well. Breakfast spead is amazing The tea time snacks can be better. Am sure they can look into it. Want to return soon
