Spot on about staying in resorts in Tamil Nadu / Kerala - I have found the same experience that one pays unnecessarily for things one doesn't need when all I want is a clean bed, a good bathroom and a balcony/sitout to stretch myself out in the mornings and evenings.
but...I haven't found any simple stays that are "woman friendly" and hence I would label it "womex" rather than "capex" since all that extra cost is because Tamil Nadu tends not to even consider the needs of the female gender (bathrooms especially) when it comes to cleanliness.
That said, If you do find any <1000 rupee steals in your travels do give a shout out.
Traveling as a single male, I have stayed at many of them, but simply have no idea whether they would satisfy the needs of the minimalist woman.
