Hotel PUMERAI calls itself a designer boutique hotel and it is easily the most complete hotel in Honavar today. It sits on NH66 near Ramatirtha Cross, a short drive from the town centre, with about 40 rooms spread across several categories, from premium and twin rooms to club rooms with balconies and family suites.
Families on a coastal road trip like it because everything is under one roof: a glass-edged outdoor pool that is open all year, a spa and wellness centre, a fitness room, a bar and a family restaurant. Guests often describe it as one of the most hygienic stays on this stretch of the highway.
Rooms and facilities
All rooms are air-conditioned with a work desk, TV, tea and coffee maker, mini fridge, hairdryer and an iron. Reviewers single out the bathrooms, which are spacious, well fitted and spotlessly clean. Club rooms come with a balcony, while family suites and twin rooms suit groups and parents travelling with children.
Food
PUMERAI has a family restaurant serving Indian and Chinese dishes and pizzas, with halal choices and a separate pure vegetarian restaurant that is popular with locals too. Breakfast is a buffet and guests regularly praise the tasty, fresh food and the quick, polite service. Lunch, dinner and high tea are also served.

Being on NH66 makes PUMERAI easy to reach by car or bus. Honavar railway station is about 4 km away and Eco Beach at Kasarkod is about 4 km. Ramatirtha is just up the road and the Idagunji temple is about 16 km south. Guests rate the location highly for exploring the whole Honavar area.
