Being came from Canada for business purposes, we find Kovalam ideal. We rented the Villa for Rs. 50,000/- monthly (excluding water and electricity), as Mr. Sukesan (Manager/Caretaker) assured me a fully furnished house. Manager/Caretaker insisted for 10 months rent in advance and we paid Rs. 500,000/- advance upfront. 

Concerns:
Caretaker reneged on the following:
1. TV not provided. A dilapidated TV that is 3 decade old is seen in the Villa. We then bought a TV, by ourselves
2. Refrigerator in bad unhygienic condition. Bought one, at our expense
3. Internet not provided. We subscribed at our expense
4. Split Units also very old. No cooling and stops working intermittently. 
5. Electric Bill per month is very huge (average Rs. 5,000/-, for two persons (husband and wife) and no visitors due to COVID. We brought this to his attention but he never addressed it. We found out that the electric supply to the Villa at right is plugged into our meter. He eventually agreed that this is happening and he suggested to pay Rs. 3,000/- per month (fixed). 
6. We requested Mr. Sukesan to clean the rooftop water tank which was dirty. He didn't listen and being this is is a health threat, we arranged cleaning, by paying Rs. 1,000/-
7. Manager/Caretaker agreed to renew the agreement for the next 11 months for Rs. 45,000/- (including electricity, internet), but he reneged on his promise on Sept. 23, 2021 (Note: agreement ending on Sept. 30, 21). WE  PACKED OUT WITH OUR TV, REFRIGERATOR FROM THE SO CALLED FULLY FURNISHED VILLA..... 

Beware....Caretaker cannot be trusted. Get everything in writing  even a fork, that you need. 

We got conflicting reports from neighbors and local people that Sugarma Villa belongs to Roger and his wife, Sugarma, from UK.  We then ponders that may be the name of the Villa indicates (Sugarma at the Gate).
