Maruthoorkonam is a growing residential locality and ward situated within the Kottukal Grama Panchayat of the Neyyattinkara taluk in the Thiruvananthapuram district of Kerala. Located roughly inland from the coastal belt near Vizhinjam, it serves as an interconnected residential area linked by local roads heading toward neighboring regions like Payattuvila and Chappath.
Major local landmarks include the Sreekrishna Swami Temple, a local Seventh-day Adventist Church, the Maruthoorkonam Ground, and a Government Primary Health Sub-Centre.
Geographically, it sits within the Kottukal Panchayat area, roughly
northeast of Vizhinjam and about 15 to 18 km south-southeast of the state
capital hub of Thampanoor (Thiruvananthapuram Central). The nearest major transport hubs are the Thiruvananthapuram
Central Railway Station and the Trivandrum International Airport, both roughly
16 to 20 km away, while the upcoming Vizhinjam International Seaport lies just
a few kilometers to the southwest.
