Hi
Try looking for hotels at www.travelguru.com or www.makemytrip.com.
I believe Varkala is an ideal place for hanging out !
Jan-March would be an ideal time in India, dry and cool !!
It is pretty much safe in India, just follow the usual precautions as is expected for a tourist
Try travelling in AC-3tier coaches in trains, the fare of which is just slightly more than the ordinary sleeper class and is safe and secure.
Additionally take the following precautions:
1. Dont hang out too late at night, especially in isolated places
2. Dress modestly
3. If ur lost and need help avoid middle-aged men, seek help from women or elderly people
4. Try to book ur train/air tickets in advance
Do let me know if u need any specific info
Cheers
Arif
I am booking accomodation in Goa through www.Ownersdirect/Goa, some lovely accomodation very reasonable, they have villas, apartments and guest houses. You may find accomodation for other parts of your holiday too, but will probably better suit the group than single traveller.

Check out www.hostelworld.com ... I find this website very useful!!
Hi,
There are a number of good but cheap hotels on Paharganj Road within one kilimeter area of New Delhi Railway station. How much is your budget for hotel per day per room? You can find a good hotel in about Rs. 800 - 1500 per room (double occupancy). Now for the beach destination you can look for Marari Beach, just 11 KM from . It is relatively less crowded than Kovalam and Verkala and safe for swimming.
