Situated in Gokarna, a few steps from Gokarna Main Beach, Revibe Beach Hostel Gokarna features accommodation with a garden, private parking and a shared lounge. The accommodation offers free shuttle service, and luggage storage for guests. This place is definitely one of the most awesome hostels I’ve ever stayed in. The hosts are just really cool and relaxed guys who include everyone and provide a magic experience on a quiet part of the main beach of Gokarna. Every night they organised some kind of games (from poker, to mafia over or music sessions that let you feel like home. Everybody is welcomed to join, nobody is forced to. If you just want to relax l, you’re also able to do so. The dorms are super tidy and cleaned every day. The common area is inviting and let you either hang out the whole day or just a bit in the night either how you prefer. The beach is directly in front of the door step and the sea amazing to bath in. The food is really pleasant for a fair price and you want to try ally of it. I recommend their Shakshuka and Gobi Manchurian. If you have the chance to stay at this special gem at the coast of Gokarna, don’t miss it. You will definitely not regret it. Thank you so much guys for this unique experience. If I ever come back to South India, I’ll make sure to visit you again. Here I felt like home far away from home.

Located on a quiet alley in Fort Cochin this hotel is a new beautiful oasis. The facilities are great with a good breakfast included in a roof top room. There is a really cute lounge across from the breakfast room, a comfortable way to relax at the end of the day. The rooms aren't huge but large enough to feel very comfortable. The bathrooms are very modern and I liked the rain shower from the ceiling and a shower curtain to keep the room dry. The hotel is walking distance to all Fort Cochin tourist sights. Shaan the owner is friendly, welcoming and helpful. Our last morning I couldn't get Uber to work to get to the airport and Shaan helped us get a taxi. I highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Cochin!
