The Leela Kovalam, a Raviz Hotel

his heritage hotel, India’s only clifftop 5-star luxury resort, was designed by architect Charles Correa. It stands on the rocky promontories of the seaside town of Kovalam. The exterior features pristine white walls and red-tiled roofs, with expansive sundecks offering panoramic views of the seascape. The 67-acre resort includes the historic Halcyon Castle, now called The Kovalam Palace, the erstwhile summer retreat of the Travancore royal family.

Visit Aaramam, our sprawling 5-acre organic vegetable garden. Relish mouthwatering seafood delicacies cooked with the freshest catch of the day.
