Abad Serviced Villas stands on Lighthouse Road in Kovalam, a few minutes' walk from Hawa Beach and within sight of the Vizhinjam lighthouse. The villas are arranged over two storeys with shaded verandahs and balconies, so most rooms look out across coconut palms towards the sea.
Rooms are spacious and air-conditioned, with LED television, tea and coffee maker, Wi-Fi and either a sea-view patio or balcony. A caretaker is on hand around the clock, English breakfast is served each morning, and laundry service, paid pickup and drop-off and bicycle rental are available.
The location suits travellers who want beach time alongside sightseeing: Padmanabhapuram is around ten minutes away, Thiruvananthapuram Central Railway Station roughly twenty-five minutes and Thiruvananthapuram International Airport about twenty minutes' drive. Trend Holidays can combine a stay here with the Kerala backwaters, Thekkady or Munnar.
