A Village by the sea - Marari Beach
Inspired by the gentle and rustic culture of the local fisherfolk, Marari Beach offers complete relaxation in a tranquil setting. From the thatched cottages to the eclectic cuisine, everything here echoes the simplicity and harmony of Malabar’s coast. A nature lover’s paradise, this coast is comprised of many complex ecosystems, giving you the opportunity to discover an array of exciting species of plants, butterflies, birds and creatures of the sea. Far removed from the madding crowd, here you can soak in space and silence. Amongst 55 acres of sprawling land and alongside the fish landing, you can enter the wondrous world of the fisherfolk from hauling in the treasures of the sea, to bargaining for the best price at the bustling market.
LIVE THE HISTORY
The living spaces at Mantra Koodam offer an experience of the rare simplicity of village life alongside the historic opulence of South India’s regal past. Adorned with Athangudi tiles, ornate teak doors and expansive courtyards at each entrance, these dwellings echo the spirit of the Tamizh culture. There are three types of cottages– the Mantra Cottage, the lavish ‘Illam’ and the luxurious family home ‘Pannaiyar Illam’, inspired by traditional estate owners’ bungalows.
