The Devasthanam maintains a large number of rooms and cottages for the convenience of pilgrims who wish to put up close by to Śrī Subrahmanya Swami Tirukkovil in order to have darshan and fulfill their vows. Most rooms and cottages are family-sized.
All rooms and cottages provide basic facilities, viz. electricity and running water only. Cottages also offer limited parking facility. During festival times these accommodations tend to fill up quickly, so the pilgrims are advised to book in advance.
The four lodges—Arumuga Vilas, Jeyanthinathar Viduthi, Senthil Andavar Viduthi, Velavan Kudil, Devar cottage and Velavan Viduthi run directly by the Tiruchendur temple Devsathanam Board—include 287 units (cottages, single and double rooms). In addition the Devasthanam has 66 private cottages, able to accommodate six members each, under its administrative control. For reservations of these rooms, contact the Devasthanam Information Centre. For further details call (+91) 04639-242271.
