About Us
A Private Beach Villa in the Heart of Varkala
A serene single villa property on the foreshore of the Arabian Sea
Amidst the ubiquitous greens of God’s Own Country with swaying coconut palms; gazing at the vast Arabian Sea, Privasea embodies everything Kerala is imagined to be. Away from the droves of people, Privasea offers you an opportunity to experience unshared serenity of the magnificent sea in the privacy of a place that is all yours.
A private beach villa created in an archetypical ‘Kerala House’ style atop a small beach-cliff beside the foreshore of the Arabian Sea in Varkala, Thiruvananthapuram. The premises truly epitomize privacy. The residence, as well as the property, are exclusively for the guest to enjoy; the only exception being occasional visits from the concierge to tend to the guest’s every need.
The name ‘Privasea’ is an apparent wordplay on the terms ‘Privacy’ and ‘Sea’. It perfectly encapsulates the soul of Privasea: the most private of experiences by the most beautiful of the seas. Whether you decide to take a stroll on the beach and enjoy the magnificent view or to just relax in our exclusive villa, Privasea gifts you the most private experiences to cherish.
Our bijou villa is perfect for a couple, a family or a solo explorer who wants to relax and indulge in the splendour of the landscape without interruptions. Apart from being a dream beach residence, Privasea rests in the perfect location to enjoy a host of activities both on the property as well as in close vicinity. From romantic outdoor dinners by the beach to thrilling expeditions, Privasea delivers unforgettable memories.
I created Privasea for my own escape to an Ocean Villa from the hustle and bustle of city life and now I have decided to share that experience with all of you.

Papanasam Beach
The Papanasam Beach also known as Varkala Beach is renowned for a natural spring, which is considered to have medicinal as well as therapeutic properties. A dip in the holy waters of this beach is believed by many to purge the body of its impurities and the soul of its sins; hence the name ‘Papanasam’ which translates to ‘the destruction of sins’. The beach also offers seasonal leisure and adventure activities such as boat riding, parasailing, jetting etc.
Varkala Cliff
Varkala cliff is a red laterite formation standing majestically on Papanasam Beach. Also called the Varkala Formation, it is a geological monument as recorded by the Geological Survey of India. It is the 27th national geographical monument in India and the second in the state after the Angadipuram Laterite in the Malappuram district. The cliff walkway provides an opportunity to explore this magnificent creation of nature.
Cliff Shopping and Dining
The cliff walkway and the locality are studded with shops big and small where you could indulge yourself in a little holiday shopping. Stores provide local arts and crafts, memorabilia, clothing, books and so much more waiting to be explored. The area also presents an impressive array of restaurants, cafes and eateries which serve delicious local food as well as other cuisines.
Sivagiri
The Sivagiri Mutt is one among the holiest sites in God’s Own Country. Sivagiri is a pilgrimage centre in Varkala where the Samadhi of Sree Narayana Guru lies. It is said that Sree Narayana Guru himself fell in love with the overall ambience of Varkala and decided to build a hermitage atop the Sivagiri Hill. The Sivagiri Mutt was build in 1904, this is where the pilgrim centre we see today lie. The Sarada Temple built by Guru is famous for its octagonal shape, planned by Guru himself. Thousands of pilgrims in yellow attires visit the Samadhi of the Guru, who propagated his concept, “One Caste, One Religion and One God for Mankind”.
Janardanaswamy Temple
A temple thriving in its rich history, Janardanaswamy Temple also known as the Varkala Temple was originally built around 2000 years ago and its present structure dates back to the 12th century. Pilgrims make their way here to pray to the primary deity of the temple Lord Vishnu, the paintings of Lord Hanuman in various poses in the temple is famous as well. The temple, as believed by the locals, rids one of all ailments and thus is very popular. The history of the temple also attracts visitations.
Fishing Village
The close proximity to the Arabian Sea undoubtedly makes Varkala a fishing village. With a large number of the local residents relying on fishing for their livelihoods, live fishing is an everyday activity. The friendly locals will be more than happy to let you witness their work in action or maybe even to join them and lend a helping hand. As gratitude they often provide a share of the fresh catch and our chef on duty will be delighted to cook up an in-house seafood meal for you.

Anirudh, June 2019“Its better than what you see in the pictures.”
This place is really nice and its better than what you see in the pictures. The scenic view right from your room is really awesome. The Privasea is justified literally there is no one around you. The sound waves can be heard from the room and is really soothing.
Vaishnav, March 2019“Privasea was everything it promised, and more.”
Waking up to the sound of crashing waves, spying on eagles sip water from a bowl while having breakfast, taking dips in a private beach to beat the heat, and finishing your day off melting into a beautiful sunset. ‘Privasea’ was everything it promised, and more. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A special mention to the caretaker, Jobin. A very cordial fellow, who makes surprisingly delicious food. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Varkala.
Srinivas, February 2019“Benny’s place is a dream come true.”
Staying in Privasea was the best part of Varkala. The sunset views from the villa are spectacular. The bed, extremely comfortable. The ambience, absolutely welcoming. In the nights if you choose to have dinner outdoors you can even catch a few fireflies who come to say hi! Privasea was the best part of our trip.
Meenakshi, May 2019“No words can explain the experience we had there.”
PRIVASEA…….no words can explain the experience we had there for two days…Again no pictures can do justice…If you really want to experience serene beauty, lovely sunsets at your own private beach, lip smacking food…and a relaxing holiday…Privasea is the place.
Dheeraj Kumar, March 2019“It made me feel like I was living inside someone’s dream house”
The property is absolutely beautiful. Every little aspect of it made me feel like I was living inside someone’s dream house, one that they had obviously spent years conceiving and months meticulously decorating. Everything has a quaint charming quality, novelesque. Overall, I cannot stop raving about this place and absolutely will be sending every single person I know to it. We can’t wait to come back.
