Namaskaram, Zostel #Varkala: Introducing our beachside hostel in boho town!🎊 . Varkala is not just a beach destination—it’s a vibe! Between #Kerala’s only cliff beach that lingers with #surfers and parasailers, a snazzy boulevard that hosts foodies and hippies, and a platter of gorgeous beaches along with cafes, shops, and brilliant sunsets, you really gotta pick your favourite thing about the place yourself.🏄‍♀🍜 . Our pretty, pastel green & blue Zostel Varkala sits right by the #BlackSandBeach, a 2-min walk from its shore. The life of the hostel is the rooftop, with its fancy beach loungers and hammocks and games, all of which face the beach directly. Covered in green palms with balconies and a jazzy air, our balconies are inviting, rooms are soothing, and common areas, happening—just the way we (and you) like it.🎯🎲🛏🖌 . Longing for a party? Come over and leave the rest to us. Book your escape with us @zostel .com (Link in bio)💯 .
