MTDC Resort One of the best place to stay in Tarkarli. 5-6 Km from Malvan village, it offers great cottages ( AC and non AC ). It is one of the few resort which is actually situated on beach. Rest are not so close proximity to the beach. Only downside is it is bit expensive, from Rs.2000 per night start, you can get a Rs.4000 per night houseboat room ( house boats are not in water but on beach ). Food is good, but again expensive. Service is ok compared to rates.
