Funky Art Beach House Reviews

Funky Art Beach House is simply amazing! It is located right on the beach in a secluded and unspoilt part of Alleppey and offers so many extras for the little money you pay. The owners really go out of their way to cater to your every need and the vibe is really cosy and chilled. The only downside is the extremely slow Wi-Fi.

The Location

The owners of the place could not have picked a better location for this hostel -- it is right on the beach, which means that you can start and finish your days with a dip in the sea without even having to carry your stuff with you. Even of you don't enjoy swimming, you can sit on the terrace and enjoy a perfect West Coast sunset or just listen to the waves of the sea from the common area. It also won't take you long to get here from the train or bus stations -- in about twenty minutes, you can walk both distances. In the close vicinity of the hostel, there are no touristy facilities like cafes or restaurants but you can buy breakfast and dinner at the hostel or walk about fifteen minutes to the nearest eateries. When it comes to food and drinks, the owners are very generous -- you are offered either a big cup of chai or a free beer upon arrival, and if you are lucky and stay at the right season, you might also be offered a coconut for free!

Rooms and Bathrooms

The dorm concept of the hostel is quite unique, as it is a semi-open space, which means that you get to listen to the waves of the sea the whole night and wake up to a fresh breeze in the morning. The beds are all equipped with mosquito nets to protect you from getting bitten. Also, lockers are provided even if you will need to bring your own padlock. Inside the dorm, you get really huge single beds, but there is also one double bed in case a couple prefers to sleep together. Soap, a package of toilet paper, and a towel are provided and will be waiting for you on your bed. The only negative aspect of the dorm is that the common area is right under your window, so if people are loud you might be kept awake by the noise. Also, the bathroom is downstairs, so that might be a bit inconvenient -- especially because you are asked to take off your shoes inside the dorm, but you will need them to cross the courtyard to get to the bathroom.

Common Spaces

The hostel has a spacious courtyard with plastic tables and chairs as well as hammocks. However, the best place to sit is the little terrace at the front of the hostel, because from here you can watch the sea. There is a kitchen on the premises and if you need a plate or cutleries, the owners will be happy to lend you some, but principally this is reserved for staff use.

Summary

Staying at Funk Art Beach House is an experience on its own right -- therefore, most people who book it just stay here throughout the day, enjoying the closeness of the beach and the chilled-out atmosphere. Do not be afraid of the semi-open dorm! The sound of the sea waves is guaranteed to give you the most relaxing sleep of your trip!
