Every destination, package and service offered has been carefully selected to ensure an unparalleled travel experience. Furthermore, our expert team is always on hand to assist you at every stage of your journey, ensuring that every detail is taken care of to perfection.
  • Are the prices always the same even if the date changes?
    Prices vary based on various factors which may be seasonal, day of the week, occupancy status of the hotel, promotions, particular fairs in the city and more. The advice, to see the prices, is to enter the dates of your stay and make your own comparisons.
  • Is breakfast always included?
    No, it depends on the rate and whether the structure is organized to offer it or not. Check carefully before booking what is included and what is not and what type of service is offered.
  • Can I make special requests?
    Of course, when booking you will have a field where you can write directly to the property and make your requests. These will be evaluated by the Hotel who will respond directly to you. MeTour is not responsible in this decision-making process.
  • What types of beds will I find in the room I booked?
    The type of bed is usually specified in the room sheet. If you have any special requests or needs you can indicate them at the time of booking by writing them in the "special requests" field which will be forwarded directly to the property. In this process MeTour is not responsible.
  • What is Paga in Structural and what are Payment Pre-Authorisations?
    When you book, some facilities offer the possibility of paying directly at the facility. In these cases you will simply be asked to insert your credit (or debit) card to guarantee the booking, but without any charge. The sum will be taken from your credit card only in the cases provided for by the policies and conditions relating to your booking. In other cases, when the Partner does not adopt automatic availability and booking systems, but confirms reservations "manually", then you will be asked to insert your credit (or debit) card to guarantee the reservation, and then be directly charged at the same time as the Partner confirms the booking (within 24-48 hours). At that moment you will receive an email with the booking confirmation and payment.
  • How do I know if my card has been pre-authorized?
    By consulting your credit card balance you will see that your available balance will be temporarily reduced by the amount of your booking. In other cases and depending on the policy of your credit card circuit, you may also find an entry in the monthly summary of card movements: "pending operation". The pre-authorization block, depending on the situation, will be maintained according to the policies and terms and conditions of what has been booked.
  • How can I cancel or change my booking?
    Easy, enter the customer area with your credentials and from there you can modify or cancel your booking. Remember that changing dates or canceling with a refund request depends on the rate you chose when booking.
  • Can I transfer my reservation to another person?
    For this request, contact the property directly which may have a specific policy in this regard or may need further data on the person to whom you want to transfer the booking.
  • How can I get help with my booking?
    Enter the customer area with your credentials and from there you can contact us or by writing through our contact form specifying your booking number and the reason for the contact request. We recommend that you also leave a telephone number where you can be reached in case of need.
  • Are there taxes, local charges or extras to be paid directly on site?
    They are normally clearly indicated in the property sheet or added during the booking phase depending on local regulations or the facility's policies. But even if not clearly indicated, payments may be requested directly to the facility for any tourist taxes, local charges or extras not included in the rate. The advice is to read everything carefully before booking or writing to us through our contact form.
  • Are small pets allowed?
    It is often clearly stated in the property sheet and for this reason we invite you to carefully read their policies. Where not indicated, we invite you to contact us through our contact form for more information.

Une option décente sur North Cliff
L un des plus excentrés par rapport à helisurface, mais cela vaut le coup d y marcher en parcourant le sentier de la falaise. Bonne nourriture indienne, Thai ou continentale. Service rapide... Bière dissimulée dans une chope ?! CB OK

Oops! The garlic knife!
Usually quite a good popular restaurant. Unfortunately today when I had my fruit salad and yogurt they decided to use the same knife for cutting fruit as the one they use for garlic. Happens a lot in India....they'll get it right eventually.
Good food and high reputation.

AMAZING food and service...
This review is long overdue...We ate at this restaurant about 5-6 times during our stay in Varkala and it was lovely every single time we went. The food was delicious. The staff were polite and attentive. And the owner treated us to something very special before we left...a complimentary full-course dinner.

We are at a loss for words by the quality service and exceptional eating experiences we had here. Thank you so much!

Sorry this review took so long to post! Forgot the name of the restaurant.

All the best!

Tolle Qualität zu fairem Preis
Super frische Fische und Meeresfrüchte. Zuvorkommende und aufmerksame crew
Der Chef wollte mir keine Pasta seafood servieren, hab sie trotzdem bestellt und super leckere asiatische Nudeln mit seafood bekommen. Wir waren jeden 2. Abend dort

Cucina indiana e multietnica
Ristorante in cui da alcuni anni trascorriamo le serate indiane. Ottima qualità sia di pesce, sempre freschissimo, che di tantissime altre pietanze.
I gestori ,molto cordiali e simpatici, ti sanno consigliare sia per la scelta del pesce🐠🐋🐟, i cui nomi sono spesso incomprensibili, che sugli altri piatti.
Ambiente spazioso fronte mare.
Consiglio vivamente a chi visita varkala beach

Une chose à dire les poissons et crustacés sont tres fais et leur cuisson est parfaite.
que vous mangiez avec une suce a la'il ou au gingembre c'est bon.
Pour une fois rare en Inde il y a de bon dessert tarte au chocolat ou cheese cake vous pouvez y a aller.

Consigliatissimo!
Siamo arrivati a varkala all'ora di cena e ci siamo imbattuti nell'esposizione del pesce al clafouti restaurant; data la visibile freschezza e l'assortimento del pesce ci abbiamo cenato... Abbiamo mangiato così bene che per tutte le sei sere del nostro soggiorno ci siamo tornati. Pesce freschissimo, grande assortimento, ottimo servizio e prezzi ragionevoli. Ogni sera un piatto diverso, da menzionare il polpo e la seppia di una tenerezza inaudita!

Good food with nice People
Vous trouverez l'endroit égal à tous les autres, mais la tranquillité et la fraîcheur des plats sont à souligner. Je recommande particulièrement les poissons de l'étal simplement grillés. Et pour ceux qui aiment, seul endroit où l'on à trouver des poulpes. Merci

Bonitos atardeceres en Clafouti!
Estuvimos unos días en Varkala y éramos bastante asiduas a tomar té y cenar algunas veces. Situado frente a los acantilados tiene unas vistas espectaculares sobretodo al atardecer. No dejéis de pasaros por allí. Personal amable, precios aceptables. Buen sitio 😉

Leckeres Essen mit beeindruckenden Blick aufs Meer
Der Service war super nett und nahmen sich Zeit, um uns Tipps bei der Gerichteauswahl (insbesondere in Bezug auf die heimische Küche) zu geben. Sehr zu empfehlen sind die Fischgerichte und Paneers: perfekte Zubereitungszeit, Temperatur und die Gewürzkombination lässt das Herz eines jeden Kulinarikliebhabers höher schlagen. Als Drink hatten wir einen Lassi (kann man auch ohne Zucker bestellen 😊). Dazu der wunderbare Blick auf den Strand - einfach perfekt für ein einzigartiges Mittag- oder Abendessen!

Buen pescado a buen precio
Cenamos un par de veces aquí, el servicio es correcto y la comida también. El pescado es fresco y no muy caro comparado con otros restaurantes de varkala. Nos gustó la relación calidad precio.
No es un lugar romántico pero es práctico y funcional.

Su objetivo era vender
Pasábamos y lo vimos con mucho ambiente. Acordamos un pescado fresco que al final pusieron lo que quisieron y el importe se multiplicó por 4. Muy buen servicio y buena comida pero lastima que no pudimos comer todo. Y después cuando vino la cuenta cobraron como quisieron.

Muy bueno y con vista al mar
Amplio menú.
Todo muy rico. Los pescados algo arcos pero de buena calidad. Frescos. Atún y mai mai
Muy rico el momo
Excelente pulpo.
La cerveza fría mirando el mar es imperdible.
Las tortas algo secas
El personal amable y servicial. El servicio no es lento.
Me gusto.

Perfecta combinación de calidad y servicio
Visite Clafouti cada día de mis 40 días de estancia en Varkala, siempre fue un placer la atención recibida, la calidad de la comida y las increíbles teteras de té (todos deliciosos y al mejor precio del sur de India).
Las vistas son hermosas a toda hora del día, frente al mar azul profundo o de noche con las luces de la embarcaciones de pesca.
