Restful retreat

10.0

We loved the idealism and the caring ethos of Jambavan with its emphasis on the environment, art and welcoming guests. The room and shared facilities were all spotless, cool and comfortable. There is a large roof terrace where you're surrounded by the tree canopy and a balcony off the living room which is shady and breezy. The hosts Avneeth and Anvena are incredibly kind and friendly and speak perfect English. We enjoyed making friends with their family of cats 🐈‍⬛ It was fun having art materials in our room to encourage some sketching.

For an "elderly" couple like us (57 & 66) the beds were a tad hard - but not atypical for India

This is a cozy little home away from home, located at a quaint location far enough from the cliff crowds to have some privacy whilst still being accessible. The place itself exudes this peaceful energy and the artwork in and around my room elevated the vibe of the place giving it a very attractive crafty feel to hit just the right mental notes. It's quite different from the other places I stayed in Varkala and I was so glad to have found it. A huge shoutout to the very warm and loving hosts, Avneeth and Anvitha, whose brainchild is this place. They've done an exquisite job with the terrace where I used to do surya namaskars everyday. I was fortunate enough to get a creative session of making Mandala art from Avneeth who made the whole process very humble to otherwise what appears to be a complicated artform. I ended up buying one of his art pieces and this is my first ever art purchase!!!. My conversations with Anvitha were incredible, something that I'm taking home with me to cherish. She also offered some homemade cake which was yum! I feel we need more Jambavans in the world and until then, this shall be my place of return when I am in Varkala next.

Nothing at all

What a refreshing experience this was! It has been on my bucket list to come and stay at Jambavan Arts Collective & Homestay & it finally happened. From the quietude, to the inspiring artistic ambiance, to the much needed transition from hectic city life to quiet and peaceful, vibes of this place - Jambavan Arts offered me exactly that which my soul was seeking. After 2 days of fabulous sleep, I stepped on to their terrace space designed for musical explorations and found myself creating new electronic music after months of procrastination. Big shoutout to the time spent with the hosts and thank you for such fun and warmth. Avneeth I am a big fan of your ginger lemon tea. I hope I can replicate it back home. :) Be sure to ask about their private art and sound bath sessions. They will be completely worth your time. While I was here, it rained generously and it made the environment all the more beautiful. I only stepped out of Jambavan Arts on my 3rd day to go to the beach. It feels so cozy inside this space that you wouldn't want to leave at all! Frida the cat and her 3 kittens are also permanent residents of this space. I absolutely loved spending time with them. They are ridiculously entertaining! Phew! What a fantastic and rejuvenating experience this has been. I think I will be returning here soon. I highly highly recommend staying here on your visit to Varkala. You will leave much richer and fuller! 💕

Lovely and peaceful ☀️

10.0

I really enjoyed my stay there. I’ve spent three nights it was very clean, comfortable and the owners are ready to help any time. This place is very peaceful and we can feel their passion for art. Art is everywhere it makes the place so unique and they also apply the art of living. I highly recommend this place for a peaceful stay ☀️ They also organize workshop and I was very happy to join them for two classes. I could write more and more but it’s not easy to describe a feeling so my best advice is go there and feel the vibe 😊

Nothing. I had a lovely stay 😊
