we went for 3 nights 4 days. Place is pretty decent however the stay was not wonderful. 1) rooms, curtain and bathrooms are filled with insect and lizard.They don't have any support staff or facility for fumigation. 2) they gave us an AC deluxe room with sea view...the only view we got was of trees outside patio..between two branches you could see 5 cm of sea. 3) I'm deathly scared of dogs and cats, even when they don't mean harm. So a disclaimer of it being pet friendly place would have been great. we could not enjoy single breakfast where I could eat in peace as there would be cats fighting constantly and roaming around the table for food and I was in constant fear. 4) Furniture is outdated and in urgent need of repair. Loungers near pool were broken. 5) Food served in the room was horrible. do not try their continental. Breakfast buffet however was pretty decent. 6) To top it all, I got swimmers itch from the pool and rashes covered my whole body on the very first day of using pool. 7) entry to the resort by car is difficult as the road is very steep and damaged and need upkeep and maybe a ramp. 8) Staff is very nice. we requested to have our breakfast set up done early as we were checking out by 8 am. they were kind enough to prepare it early. 9) the place is very quite, peaceful and serene. You feel quite safe too. no unnecessary tourists or locals lurking around.

An excellent place. Well maintained and serviced. Right on the beach with around 50 meters. They have a small pool as well. Very decent crowd. Please don't make much party noise as the crowd around are little different. There are rooms available with kitchenette. They do have an in-house restaurant and they do run a restaurant outside from where you could order a decent pizza, salad or some Italian.

Excellent family place with lots of things to keep children busy. Right in the beach, 1 minute walk, nice shallow pool for non swimming children and also lessons but only allowed with swimwear so pool etiquette to be followed. Do note no alcohol served here inspite of being Pondicherry as they are an Auroville guest house. Many eateries outside the property for student'. Simple no frills place with sea view rooms. All ac. One house also with its own private pool at reasonable price. Cheap and best value.

The location is blissfully near the sea. The rooms are great, service is nice. The beauty of the place is its proximity to the beach, where every wave coming crashing onto the shore is audible and presents a picturesque and serene environment.

We really love this place. Family and pet oriented, kids can run around safely.We enjoy being in the nature and at the same time to have access to beach and swimming pool. Rooms are clean and staff are helpful. Food is also good (South Indian and continental).

The owner is just so rude s/he does not have basic sense of communication. This was my experience based on some email exchanges. Looking at the beautiful pics of the property I was interested in visiting here. But decided against it. However good be your property, I don't think the owner has a right attitude to run a travel and hospitality business. Reply to your reply: I beg to differ on the point that emails as a media can appear rude. Nevertheless, still I tried calling you many number of times. I asked you to share recent pics of the property. I asked you for callback. Did I get response on any of these? What's the point of responding here now? And don't give that reason of age please. Are you saying being rude is justified at higher ages?

Kind of guest house, spacious area covered by many trees. Nice swimming pool and its kids friendly. Easy access to Beach. Food is average and they have time constraints to take order.

A beautiful place with direct beach access and ample space inside the property to roam around while enjoying the nature. The accommodation are clean and decent, expect few insects during rainy season as its fully covered with trees. Nothing harmful which can be ignored as you are in a nature stay. Opt for the AC rooms and keep the window and door close to keep the insects out of the room.
Stay will not hurt you pocket as well. Serving good breakfast(South Indian) and if you are pet lover then it’s a heaven. —Cats, dogs and cows— both there dogs look very scary at first but trust me they are so friendly once you pamper them they will ask for more and roam around with you everywhere specially the hairy one(GSD).
Thanks to all tanto staffs to make our stay so pleasant. Specially Sandhya to bring us our dinner in pitch dark heavy rain.
Yes, this place is not perfect and need some upgrades but again when we look for our pocket we should adjust with those. So ignore those minor issue and enjoy the stay while you are there.
