Thipurai Beach Hotel

Pro: Location: The hotel is a 2min walk to the beach, and directly opposite Village market (big mall with plenty of food and shopping options), there is a bridge to cross the street even with elevator, also food options on the doorstep, familymart around the corner. Rooms are relatively big and very quiet, beds are big and comfortable, staff is very friendly and helpful, rooms have balcony, AC is good and quiet.

Con The hotel has no direct beach access, and therefore no beach shower where you can get rid of the sand. To get to the beach you have to walk through a parking lot with some huts where people who work on the beach live with their livestock (chickens, cats, dogs) The beach at this particular spot is highly frequented by kite surfers, horse riding and boot tours. The motorboats leave pollution as do the dogs etc. Although this isn’t too bad I think you should be aware when travelling with small children (under 3) as everything can get quite busy here. Rooms: are a little outdated but nothing really to complain about, except the shower could be updated from a US-style shower-head (that’s fixxed on the wall and can’t be adjusted) to one that has a handle, so you can shower children better. The room is not equipped with a hairdryer but the reception was very helpful and organized one on demand. Fridge is tiny and offers limited space if you want to store your own soft drings or fruit.

Room was fully equipped with everything. Location is very very convenient, walking distance to everything - beach, Family Mart store, shopping mall. On this street itself with massage next door, restaurants, laundry. Everything you need.

Room was a bit small for more than 2 people (family with kids)

I didn't see any nice lady around there!!!!!!
