Soul & Surf

Varkala


Bold pink and turquoise design meets a homely, social feel at this boutiqueified British-run yoga and surf retreat spread across lush gardens atop the South Cliff, where rooms, yoga classes and the wonderful cafe are open to all. Along with the main guesthouse (which has contemporary top-tier rooms with sea-view terraces), there are smaller rooms in a traditional 150-year-old house opposite.
