Kanan Beach Resort

Second visit from the UK to Kanan Beach Resort and thoroughly enjoyed our longer stay as facilities, food and service were again outstanding! Chef's thoughtful and delicate touch with sauces and dips created a varied menu of fantastic, tasty, freshly prepared dishes. The restaurant nestling amongst the palms and the sound of the ocean waves was a perfect setting. We'll be back again soon!

Our 11th visit for 4 weeks Jan/Feb 2024. We obviously love this place! The reasons are ***y - lovely detached bungalows, beautiful grounds, great pool, superb breakfast, lunch & dinner. The staff make every visit a delight, they are ALL exceptional, from the charming and very skilled chef, the 3 absolutely super guys in the beachside restaurant, through the maintenance staff, gardeners and the daily cleaners, all are extremely friendly. What's not to love?

What a wonderful place to stay ! We ended up at KBR after am 8 day trip down from Bangalore and what a wonderful way to end our holiday! Everything about the resort was perfect - the sort of 5 star boutique luxury you would pay $500 a night for in other places but for very significantly less Probably one of the nicest places we have ever stayed at - just 10 "cottages" spread out around a pool with direct access to the most perfect and deserted beach. Special mention to all the wonderful staff!

Yet another wonderful stay! This was our second visit to this beautiful resort and its wonderful and kind staff. We love the serenity this resort has to offer. Clean and spacious rooms with a sea view and a very hospitable staff what more can one want. This has become our go to place for family holidays. Each time we visit ,we wish we could stay longer. Would strongly recommend this resort to everyone who is looking for a place to relax and rejuvenate with family. I would like to particularly mention the over and above service attitude of the staff here. There were ***y instances of thoughtful gestures by the resort staff that made our stay here even more enjoyable. We had the chance to meet the resort owner during our stay and it’s obvious he takes much pride in his resort and staff and why would he not , he has a happy and efficient ***agement and service team. So thank you again Team Kanan for the memorable stay.

This is our 2nd visit to Kanan Beach Resort. Our daughter & us stayed 2 nights here. The cottages are very spacious with a bedroom, sitting room opening out into a veran*** & a luggage room. There is a cute swimming pool interspersed with cottages & a restaurant. The resort is on the Nileshwar beach which is very quiet except for the locals. The food menu is a mix of tasty local & Continental cuisine. The staff are very courteous & attentive. Special mention to ***u who took good care of us. Highly recommended for a serene holiday.

We have stayed ***y times in Nileshwar but 1st time in Kanan Beach Resort. The resort has garden view & sea view cottages & even a Cottage with 2 bedrooms for families. The cottages are large like a Bungalow with a sitting room cum utilities, a outdoor veran*** & a luggage room besides your bedroom & bathroom. The sitting room has foldable doors which can be totally opened or closed. The food was very tasty with a la carte breakfast & a variety of seafood for lunch & dinner. The staff are very courteous as is the ***ager Prakash. The resort is owned by a charming French couple Martin & Anna who we had the good fortune of meeting. They have retained the authenticity of the place & haven't made it too commercial. The resort overlooks a unspoilt gorgeous Nileshwar beach with amazing sunsets. There is a cute little swimming pool too.

We absolutely loved this hotel! If you want a busy, noisy sightseeing few days then DON’T go here. It is a place of peace, quiet, beautiful walks ***** the beach & huge smiles of all the staff. The restaurant was almost on the beach. The food was fabulous & nothing was too much trouble. Our order was taken at 6pm & lots of advice given on choice. The accommodation was huge & so comfortable. We were on a busy month long trip of India & we felt completely rested & indulged here.

My family and I wanted to go on a break after two years of Covid lock down. We were on a look out for a place where we as a family could just sit back and relax and cut off from the world. We stumbled upon Kanan Beach Resort in our search and decided to book it for our vacation. We thank our luck for finding such a gem. It was an absolute blissful and relaxed stay we would have. We liked everything about the resort but here are a few noteworthy mentions: Ambience , Architecture and Resort Layout: The resort is just by the beach, the cottages for the guests are laid out with a lot of space between them. The cottages themselves are designed and build keeping traditional local architecture in mind. We went in the beginning of April (beginning of Indian summer) but the cool sea breeze and the spacious rooms kept all of us relatively cool. Staff and Service: The staff including Prakash, ***u and everyone else at the resort were very helpful , kind, accommodating of our requests.We are particularly grateful to the staff for the services they provided over what was a major holiday weekend in Kerala. (Vishu and Easter) We are now definitely planning to visit this resort in future for our family vacation with possibly longer stays. Thanks Team Kanan.

Covid travel ban cancelled our flights in 2021, but Omicron could not stop us in 2022. After no travel for 2 years, it was so lovely to be back in Kanan again, for 4 weeks, our 9th visit. The green environment hadn't changed, the sea, the empty beach, the pool, the bungalows, the delicious food, and the wonderful staff (particularly Zakesh and ***oo in the restaurant) , all still there. As soon as we returned to England end Feb, we booked for 2023 !
