BCanti Boutique Beach Resort is a five star property at Sree Eight in Varkala, on the coast by the sea, 5 km from the centre of Varkala. Its private beach, outdoor pool, spa and massage facilities, and no smoking rooms shape much of a stay, and the guest score of 4.4 out of 5 from 518 reviews is one of the strongest signals on file. The deciding factor is the trade off between seclusion and convenience.
What the resort provides
BCanti Boutique Beach Resort carries a five star rating and guest score of 4.4 out of 5 from 518 reviews. Air conditioning and non smoking rooms are standard, and a balcony, terrace and garden give private outdoor space. A restaurant, breakfast, special diet menus and room service cover meals, while the outdoor pool, private beach, spa, massage and yoga cover most of a day without leaving the property.
For practical needs, there is free WiFi, a business centre, banquet hall, concierge, currency exchange, laundry, luggage storage and express check in. A shuttle service, 24 hour security and babysitting make the logistics of a family or group stay easier.
Where the resort sits
The resort is at Sree Eight, Varkala, in Thiruvananthapuram district, South Kerala. Varkala is a town in Thiruvananthapuram district, a tourism hub, and the property is on the coast, by the sea, 5 km from the centre of Varkala.
Varkala itself is a red laterite cliff standing straight out of the Arabian Sea, with a temple town and a pilgrimage tank at the bottom of it. It is the only cliff on this coast, and geologically the reason the beach exists. The resort is 5 km from the centre of Varkala, close enough for errands and far enough to be away from the busiest stretch.
Who it suits
The resort suits people who want a five star base with a private beach, a pool, a spa and meals on site, and who are content to be 5 km from the centre of Varkala rather than in it. It does not suit anyone who wants to step out of the gate into the cliff path and the town's everyday life, because the resort sits away from that centre.
When to plan a stay
November to March is the season to aim for. In the wet months, cliff erosion work closes stretches of the path, so the area around the cliff is less usable then. The property's garden, terrace, restaurant and indoor facilities remain available whatever the season, and November to March gives the best chance of the coast being open.
What the property lists
Where it is

Questions people ask
Does BCanti Boutique Beach Resort have a private beach?
Yes. A private beach is one of the listed facilities, along with an outdoor pool, garden, terrace and picnic area. The resort sits on the coast, by the sea, so the beach is part of the property rather than a short trip away. This is a central reason many guests choose it.
How far is the resort from Varkala town centre?
It is 5 km from the centre of Varkala. That places it outside the main cliff and temple area, so a shuttle service, which is listed, is useful for getting in and out. Being away from the centre is the main reason to choose it and the main reason not to.
What is the guest score for BCanti Boutique Beach Resort?
The guest score is 4.4 out of 5 from 518 reviews. That is the only score on file, and it is worth weighing against the five star rating. A score at that level across more than five hundred reviews suggests most guests find the property meets expectations.
Does BCanti Boutique Beach Resort have a pool and a spa?
Yes. An outdoor pool, a spa and massage are listed facilities, and yoga is also available. Together with the private beach and garden, these give several ways to spend a day on the property without traveling. None of them depend on the season in the same way the cliff does.
