In a prime spot among palms, frangipanis and oleanders, facing northern Thottada Beach, charming Blue Mermaid has two immaculate rooms in a traditional home, eight bright air-con rooms occupying a modern mint-green building, and a whimsical stilted 'honeymoon cottage'. Friendly owners Indu and Parveen serve fine Kerala meals using garden-fresh ingredients and home-grown Wayanad coffee (plus free water refills).
