Poovar
There is no boring taxi ride to the Estuary Sarovar Portico Island – you go by boat. From the small fishing village of Poovar, near Kovalam, you'll be ferried along a gently winding river, through the coconut groves to your exclusive island paradise – the Estuary Sarovar Portico Island!
The hotel occupies an idyllic location overlooking an azure blue lagoon and a long stretch of sandy beach. The Arabian Sea laps at the shore – it's the perfect backdrop – a glittering ribbon of blue in this oasis of calm and tranquillity.
The exquisite Estuary Sarovar Portico Island: the perfect holiday hideaway
Helping you to relax even more, rooms at the Estuary Sarovar Portico Island put comfort first. The garden view rooms are all light and airy and come fully equipped with cable TV, telephone, minibar and en suite bathroom. You may even upgrade to an estuary view room. Just ask for details.
The ambience throughout is laidback and convivial. Staff are fully attentive to your needs. And just wait till you see the spectacular floating restaurant. In fact, the Estuary Sarovar Portico Island is full of places where you'll want to stop and marvel at your surroundings. Take a wander in the beautiful garden and you'll discover the swimming pool, bordered with palm trees and looking out over the lagoon. And beyond that – a quick boat ride away is the main beach.
And if all of that isn't relaxing enough, why not enjoy a few sessions at the hotel's Ayurvedic centre for a traditional health and wellbeing treatment.

Reality didn’t meet expectations
Estuary resorts in Poovar has always been a great place to stay and get together. We have stayed twice here with friends and family before and visited this time with our family for a quiet weekend. Maybe that was the problem this time they fell well short of expectations. There is some maintenance going on probably after sarovar took over and is still on. Very patient and friendly front desk and restaurant. They didn’t get our cake in place for the birthday party but eventually made it after a wait. Food was far from being the sought out place once it was. Not much variety and quality. The bar had only wine and beer and service was awful too. Boat ride to the resort was good. One thing that has remained unchanged is the pricey menu!!
