Very calming as relaxing experience. Staff is very friendly. Especially Abhishek and Sujith took good care of us. The general manager also was checking in on us daily at the high-tea. The views are quite serene and the whole place has a very peaceful & relaxing vibe. Waah Taj!

We found the Jasmine Bay restaurant to offer high quality food and exceptional service. Assistant restaurant manager Abhishek was a pleasure to meet and took great care of us as did the cook. The rooms itself are small and dated and charge is high (750$ a night) for quality as compared to equivalent resorts elsewhere which are new and have better comforts for lower prices. The landscaping is excellent and property is safe and the high yea and sunset views are phenomenal.

Surrounded but nature and very restful. Nothing around the resort, however they offer in-house activities for both children and adults. Food selection was good and they happily accommodated some alternations of menus.

The property is well kept and lush. The evening boat ride followed by the tea overlooking the sundet sea side was beautiful. However the hosts at the restaurants are extremly pushy and annoying sometimes. The key is to stay alert and available if needed not hovering over the guests the whole time. There is a difference. Their restaurant "bait" needs major renovation and wasn't inviting due to old and broken furniture. There are not enough dining options in the area so youre forced to eat at the property. The fact that i was told that the oven only starts at 7pm and grilled food is unavailable was disappointing. I guess i expected more from Taj.

Had an exceptional one-night stay at Taj Green Cove in Kovalam! The waterfront setting is breathtaking, and the service is truly top-notch. The room was luxurious, with every detail attended to, and the dining options were diverse and delicious. The staff's hospitality made the experience even more memorable. Highly recommend for a perfect blend of relaxation and luxury!

Wonderful staff who provide every assistance whatever the query or issue may be. The property has a unique aspect and a private beach which makes for a peaceful experience of the Indian Ocean. The food is wonderful. Never feels crowded. The complimentary morning yoga was a treat.

I stayed here for a night and WiFi sucked. After charging more than 20,000rs it sucks that WiFi is old fashioned. Staff didn’t take care much! I won’t stay here again.

Good service but rooms are not as good as they appear on the internet. They don't provide more than couple of pictures of the rooms on the net. Bathrooms are small and outdated. For a five star property, they are tacky and inconvenient. No direct beach access. Nice walkways and greenery.
Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023

This is not a 5 star property. It is 4 stars maximum and some aspects I would rate as 3 stars. The pool is badly in need of retiling. The tiles would come off under fingers and toes and they are very sharp. I’ve only stayed at one other Taj property and it was amazing. This one is terribly overpriced for what it is. The staff are doing their best and were very attentive but given I stayed at 2 Hyatts in recent weeks, this place really comes up short and I felt terribly ripped off.

Checking was disaster. They never informed I need to carry passport and visa in email. So I have to search and gets docs. Also very less beach area with rough sea, so not good. I felt like a forest space than star hotel. Rooms are under like a cave. Charges are very very high for all dining. Pool is not st all deep for adults and only one pool for guests. I was in resorts in Puetoricco and Aruba (Hilton Gardens). Compared to those this is at a low standard. Also you need to cross public road to get access to other beach side area which makes it uncomfortable. Didnt like it. Wont go again.
