Launching soon

A TRIVENI HOUSE  ·  COAST · NORTH OF VARKALA

Where nature finds its shore

A low white house ten minutes north of the cliff, five rooms along one verandah, with a beach in front of it that is usually empty by six.

5 rooms, sleeps 10 55 km from Thiruvananthapuram Best November to April Two-night minimum

01 — THE HOUSE

Five rooms and a long verandah

Lime-washed walls, oxide floors, shutters that stay open from October. The house faces west, so the whole verandah turns gold for twenty minutes and then it is dark. Swimming is a hundred paces away, and flat enough to do before the sun is properly up.

Down to the beach at six when the boats land — the loudest market in Kerala, over by eight.

Backwater by canoe

A country boat, no motor, three hours through the narrow canals behind the house.

We swam before anyone else was awake, every single morning. The verandah is the whole point of the place.

Empty beach, open shutters, nothing on the schedule. Exactly what was promised.
