  • Awesome location. The terrace was a great touch too. Loved it.

  • Stayed in the fifth floor room at Kaivalyam and I cannot find any fault with it or the experience. The rooftop terrace was also the perfect place to watch the sun rise over the ocean and I have already promised I’ll stay for a week next time I’m in Pondy! A wonderful space. Thank you.

  • The place looks exactly like the pictures. It’s super clean and cozy. Gopal was very helpful. The best part was the terrace. Hardly anyone came up there so it felt like it was my private terrace. The location is also very convenient and everything is super close by. Definitely going back when I visit again.

  • Very good stay at prime location. Very friendly hosts

  • Highly secured stay in the heart of white town. Impeccable room. Private Terraced garden was a cherry on the icing .

    Sangeeta2020-02-07T00:00:00Z
  • Pleasant surroundings will give you amense pleasure n happiness. Good for those who wants to have peaceful time with their partner.

    Shivani2020-02-02T00:00:00Z
  • It was my first experience in an AirBnB space and I went with the past reviews of Kaivalyam and knew that it will be a fairly decent place. It is a 10/10 on location (right in the centre of main city), responsiveness of Gopal (the manager) and Prithika (the owner) to our requirements was on point.. The place is as it looks in the picture (clean and cozy), housekeepinng is available, drinking water is available, clean towels available everyday. This 1BHK space is available on the fifth floor which has a terrace right outside the house and there are no other rooms on the same floor so you get the whole space all to yourself (which means you should make good use of the terrace). All in all a good place and value for money property.

    The House of Blue Mangoes is a leisurely Franco-Tamil experience. The House's yellow walls and French beds blend seamlessly with its beautiful Tamil courtyard and 'thinnai'. There's plenty of open space to sit back, relax and to let time slow down. This listing is for the ensuite room 'Isaioli' which is next to the House's garden.
    Nestled in a quiet lane in Pondicherry, The House of Blue Mangoes takes inspiration from David Davidar’s book by the same name. Restored lovingly from ruins and rubble, the House is a seamless blend of classic Tamil architecture and pan-European sensibilities. The charming little 'thinnai' or sit-out at the entrance traditionally invites anyone passing by to relax and rest a while. A beautiful, open Tamil courtyard welcomes the first rays of the sun and offers the perfect spots to unwind, read a book, or simply do nothing at all. Chrome yellow walls and French beds are constant reminders of influences from across the seas. Every bit of furniture in the House is a carefully hand-picked piece of history. Our three rustic bedrooms - Kavya, Isaioli and Calanjali - are tastefully furnished with antique beds, cupboards and other things vintage. Of course, air-conditioning, geysers and comforts of a boutique hotel do exist, but they do not intrude. Still, nothing feels quite like home unless there's a friendly kitchen; so our fully-equipped cooking space lets you make your coffee and comfort foods just the way you like it at home. There are plenty of open spaces around the House, as you'll quickly discover; and if you wander across to the far end of the House, you'll be pleasantly surprised at what you chance upon - a garden spotted with tiny blue mango saplings. It is our hope that they grow up quickly to make the House of Blue Mangoes what we've always wanted it to be - a quiet place to perch under while the rest of the world goes on with its usual frenzy.
    Pondicherry's Sunday Market is a stone's throw away from the House. Good biriyani, south Indian vegetarian food and two pizzerias are all less than a kilometre away. Pothy's which houses Pondicherry's largest clothes store and supermarket is less than 0.5 kilometres away.
  • The house of blue mangoes is super cute and we loved our stay there a lot. The rooms are decorated very charming and each room is unique. We especially loved sitting out in the small patio in the morning that is also part of the house. Everything we needed was provided and we can also recommend the kitchen for cooking, it has all the essentials you need for that. Mina is always helpful and will take care of any of your wishes. We had a lovely time.

    Maria2020-02-21T00:00:00Z
  • Undoubtedly one of the best homestay experiences, I've had in life (just to put out, I travel quite a lot). Right from amazing hospitality to beautiful heritage architecture, the stay was worthy of each penny spent. It's situated right at the centre that you walk out and find yourself in midst of everything that your mind may desire of. Also, special mention of the entire team who would make sure to coordinate with you about your arrival and departure with utmost diligence and also allow you the space to keep your luggage if you arrive early or depart late, very graciously. The intricate detailing throughout the property speak of its legacy and every corner speaks a story here, don't forget to sip on your tea in the backyard with comfy set-up.

    Abhinav2020-02-10T00:00:00Z
  • Best stay in pondicherry in our trip. The host was such a sweet person. Enjoyed every hit of stay here.

  • Great location and loved the house.. Very close to white town and beach... Definitely will come back again if visiting pondi in future..

    Shreya2020-01-28T00:00:00Z
  • Great place and hospitality is very good. Manager guides local places well and provides scooter on rent too.

    Varna2020-01-26T00:00:00Z
  • Very good location of the place...everything is nearby...the staff is amazingly courteous and sweet.

    Paromita2019-12-08T00:00:00Z
  • A very quaint, little place with a very rural South Indian house feel to it. Exactly what I love about Airbnbs. Great place. Will surely return for a longer stay. :)

    Lavanya2019-12-07T00:00:00Z
  • Amazing stay. Definitely coming back and recommending others.

  • We were really happy about the stay in Dwijen's place. The host couple were generous and welcoming. The rooms were very spacious and clean with space for cooking, swing to relax and AC bedroom. We did not have the diffuculty of finding a rental bike, since Dwijens had thier own rental bike for a cheaper price (rs 250 per day). One can roam in and out of the city and give it back when vacating the space. Above all, Host was more kind and human and was not money-minded.

    Rajeesh2020-02-29T00:00:00Z
  • Book this place without thinking twice, you won't regret it. We had an amazing time here.

    Mansi2020-02-23T00:00:00Z
  • A great place and dwijen and his wife are fabulous hosts. Really went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We were able to do some laundry and had the option of hiring a scooter for the day. Comfy bed with great a/c. If we make it back to pondi we will definitely stay again.

    Kerry2020-02-13T00:00:00Z
  • Nice place at the ground floor of two storied building. Helpful in case if you want to check in early as it has got a small spare room as a stand by till check in time. Certainly stay here next time.

    Vishal2020-02-12T00:00:00Z
  • Very good home, right in the heart of Pondicherry....

    Dhaval2020-02-11T00:00:00Z
  • It was the second time my parents stayed at Dwijen's place and like last time, they were very happy and satisfied with their stay. Dwijen and Mita are the best hosts a guest can wish for: always ready to help, with a smile and a big heart. Nothing is too much asked. They welcome you into their home as if you are family. My parents definitely recommend staying at this Airbnb. You will not regret it!

    Ellen2020-02-04T00:00:00Z
  • Dwijens place felt like a home. The apartment is spacious and close to all touristy locations. They are very warm and helps you to your bit. Totally recommend Dwijens place. Would come again for sure.

    Aneri2020-01-21T00:00:00Z
  • My parents stayed at the Airbnb. They told me to write: "We were warmly welcomed and we immediately felt at home in this homestay. When we visit India again, we will definitively return to Dwijen and Mita's place. When we had questions, they were always prepared to give us answers and they informed us about Indian culture and the way of living. Nothing is too much for them. It was easy to communicate with them. We had to communicate in English, but they do it without any problems. Thank you for a fantastic stay! We will miss you!"

There's plenty of open space to sit back, relax and to let time slow down. This listing is for room 'Kavya' which opens into the House's Tamil courtyard.

  • The house of blue mangoes is not just a place of stay but an experience. From the welcoming smile of the house keeper to that way the place is structured encourages you to drop all your plans and just stay indoors. There is a cute garden and a terrace with chairs to sit and relax on. I strongly recommend this to young couples or a small group of friends planning to visit pondy.

    Karun2020-02-24T00:00:00Z
  • Homely place

    Sooraj2020-02-05T00:00:00Z
  • The house of blue mangoes is a warm and cozy home tucked in the residential neighborhood of Pondicherry. It was our home away from home for 3 days. The staff and manager and Prithika helped us with local sightseeing and culinary tips. We were able to explore the Pondi food scene in 3 days and made some great memories. Would highly recommend staying here. Look forward to visiting again.

    Yami2020-01-27T00:00:00Z
  • Cosy lill place and well decorated

    Harsha2020-01-24T00:00:00Z
  • Wonderful cozy place that has an old world charm and instill a sense of nostalgia and transport you to a bygone era 🙂 clean and cozy, retro, near to the beach and some good restaurants and shopping places..one of the best stays that Pondi has to offer

    Akshay2020-01-20T00:00:00Z
  • The House of Blue Mangoes is great, a little small, but the architecture and traditional interiors make it worth it. The location is perfect, in the middle of white town, but on a quiet, peaceful road. The manager was great too, gave us a lot of tips on local sights and places to eat.

    Rashmi2019-12-24T00:00:00Z
  • Great stay!! And great recommendations!!! The location is just apt :) And not to mention, special thanks for the early check in :) Overall left Pondy with happy memories!!!

    One beautiful room on the second floor of the art gallery. With a small private balcony facing François Martin Street. The rooms character will do the talking.
    The space is unique because it caters to another dimension of hospitality with simple sophistication. You are welcome to socialise and you have the option to be alone, both in one place.
    Our neighbourhood is one the finest in Pondicherry and the most diverse. People from all walks and strata of life are here. You will never get bored, as there is so much just to see, but mainly feel.
  • A jewel in the dust of the tropics, fanned by the ocean breezes of the Bay of Bengal, decorated in exquisitely curated art, resounding with live performances from performers from all over the world, large comfortable poster beds from a bygone era . A grand spot of paradise indeed.

    Srini2020-01-31T00:00:00Z
  • The place is in White Town and walking distance to Promanede and Cafés. The decor of the place is very good and has basic amenities available. Would recommend you to check out the art gallery, especially if there is an exhibition.

    Ranjan2019-11-03T00:00:00Z
  • This place is all sorts of lovely- from the amazing interiors to the entire feel of the place! We thank Satinder for being cordial and helpful. We were also lucky to briefly meet Mr. Lalit, Krtatma’s father who welcomed us to the art gallery and lovely to speak to! Special mention: excellent AC and very nice geyser! A 10/10 kinda Airbnb.

    Sandhya2019-10-20T00:00:00Z
  • We had a wonderful stay at this place.

    Rajica2019-09-11T00:00:00Z
  • Amazing place to stay with really stylish and thoughtfully decorated rooms. The location is perfect as everything you would want to see or go is just on walking distance . It’s attached to a beautiful art gallery as well.

    Meenakshi2019-08-19T00:00:00Z
  • This is one of the best places to stay in Pondicherry. The location is close to all attractions in the city and is super safe. The rooms are great, very artsy. They regularly have cultural events in their gallery and guests are encouraged to attend the evnts. I happened to attend a music concert. It was an intimate gathering and the music was beautiful! Krtatma is an amazing host, very friendly, quick to respond to queries and extremely helpful! Overall, superb stay! :)

    Parul2019-08-12T00:00:00Z
  • Nice Property...... walking distance from beach and white town. Multiple dine in options near by and a superb art gallery to gaze.

    Rohan2019-07-16T00:00:00Z
  • It is a beautiful house full of art collection. The room is tidy, AC worked fine, it is close to many cafes and restaurant. The care take is available for any requirements or help. Kitchen is usable for heating food, but for tea or coffee or making food you have to pay. Over all stay was really good.

    Cosy two bedroom apartment, very quiet, 15 minute walk from Sri Aurobindo Ashram - located on a street about a km away from the heritage town. The street is narrow and normally difficult to navigate in a car. The apartment can accommodate 4 including children above the age of two. If your group is larger than 4, please contact us PRIOR to booking. Please do note that it is difficult to park a large car in the reserved parking slot. The last two images give an exact location for the place.
    The apartment is a well laid out two bedroom apartment with two bathrooms. Both the bedrooms are air-conditioned. The south facing windows open to nice greenery on the next property. Since the apartment is less than 250m from the sea, you get a beautiful view of the sea from the terrace. Please note that there is no lift in the building and the apartment is on the first floor. Please do read the house rules before booking. Thanks!
    The area is located 1.2 km from the old French quarter. The road in front of the property is two lane but narrow. You can access the property in a car but it's not very convenient to drive a car up and down frequently. Parking is available on the street for larger cars and in the apartment complex for a small (hatchback) car. A fisherman's beach is a street away and you can walk down along the shoreline to the Rock beach which is 1.2 km away.
  • Very nice apartment large spacious separate room with attached bathroom. Clean and tidy cleaning every day, cozy Hindu area. Hired 2 times how happy again!

    Marianne2020-02-25T00:00:00Z
  • Beautiful apartment and reasonably priced, with interiors just as shown in the pictures. Deepa and Deepak are very responsive to messages and calls and are really helpful hosts. We only had a problem with the mosquitoes but the hosts were thoughtful enough to leave some bug spray in the apartment.

    Harish2020-02-16T00:00:00Z
  • It's a great place to hideout in Pondicherry.Everything as described.Library was so amazing.All arrangements,interior and everything is mind blowing.Location is bit interior in the sense of constrained road.and parking space.Can accommodate a small hatch back.But have enough space in road side and was safe from my experience.Thanku deepa for being a great host.we really enjoyed the stay..

    Basil2020-02-05T00:00:00Z
  • This place is as described with straightforward checkin. Close to main city ( we had our own vehicle) yet peaceful. Vehicle parking was outside on the street, but was alright. Inside house was well appointed with fully functional kitchen. Liked the library as well. Overall was a very good experience.

    Aarthi2020-01-26T00:00:00Z
  • You can expect a very well organized home, with each element thoughtfully placed and labeled to prevent confusion. We were able to check ourselves in, find all that we wanted and check out, without any muddle, confusion or back and forth. The home is beautiful, well lit, quiet and very well kept. Deepa had provided towels, a fully equipped kitchen with induction cookware, stock for tea, coffee and a kettle and crockery and cutlery. Its a must visit. You'll feel at home (and a very clean home at that)

    Sunil2020-01-18T00:00:00Z
  • It was my first experience with Airbnb and I just loved it. The apartment is itself in a perfect location with a few minutes walk to some famous tourist locations within the main city. Our host Deepak is a very nice person and helped us a lot during our stay. I would surely suggest this apartment for anyone who is planning to visit Puducherry anywhere in the near future.

    Angshuman2020-01-11T00:00:00Z
  • If you are coming to Pondicherry and want a place which is central and still not right in the middle of chaos then Deepa has the perfect place for you. The house is really spacious and well situated, around 10 minutes walk from the sea. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a good vacation with a break from urban routine.

    Sachin2020-01-06T00:00:00Z
  • A short summary of Deepa's place. Location: The place is located a little interior to the North End of the Boulevard where Goubert Avenue and Sardar Vallabhai Patel Road meet. The road narrows down a bit as you move towards the location and you have to be careful while driving your car to the location. The place is housed in an apartment complex. Parking: You will get a spot to park you car. A Hatchback can be parked properly. Checkin: On the day of your arrival you'd get a numeric 6 digit code to use the number lock on the front door. Use that to get in to the house. No lock and key system. If you are going to stay out of the house past 10 pm, it is advisable to carry the Gate Key to the apartment as it will be locked by that time. House: The place is a beautiful 2 BHK. A spacious Living area which extends into the walk in open Kitchen. The living area has a beautiful sitting space which is carefully decorated. That was my most favorite place of the house. There is a great collection of books that you can read if interested too. They also have a lot of flyers and info brochures that will guide you in case you are visiting Pondy for the first time. There are 2 Bedrooms, both with A/C attached. The master Bedroom has an attached Bathroom to it. It also has a wardrobe for your unpacking. The other Bedroom is more functional and can be used for any work / study if anyone is interested. There is an extra Bathroom for all common use. Kitchen is well stocked with all necessary cutlery and crockery. They even have a Pressure Cooker. :) If you are not keen on cooking, Swiggy and other food apps also deliver to the location. All in all it is great place to be staying when in Pondy. A piece of advise: if you travel by car, park it in the apartment. Then Rent a scooter / bike for all your travels. It is easier to get by in Pondy on a scooter than in a car.

    This listing is for 1 private room at our apartment with an attached bathroom and small balcony. There may be other guests staying in the other rooms and sharing common spaces like the kitchen and living room with you. Our newly built apartment is on a pretty, residential street in the heart of the Tamil Quarter.
    Light and airy, the apartment provides spacious living accommodation. As you open the front door you are welcomed into a large living area which leads on to an open plan kitchen/dining area. The bedroom is at the far end of the apartment and leads to a small balcony. The apartment is furnished with locally handcrafted teak furniture and guests have access to a modern open plan kitchen. The apartment is sunny and quiet and is ideal for relaxation after a day visiting the local sites or after shopping expeditions.
    St Theresa Road is residential surrounded by new builds as well as old style, traditional Tamil houses. There is a great bakery a minute from the apartment and supermarkets within 5 minutes. The street is located in the shopping district of old Pondicherry with the Grand Bazaar on one side and the Petit Bazaar on the other side (each no more than a 10 minute walk from St Theresa Road. The Grand Bazaar in particular is a warren of alleyways full of little shops selling household goods, fruits, vegetables and flowers. There is a fish market on one side which is a sight to see with all sorts of fresh fish and seafood being sold. It is a paradise for not only shoppers but for those photographers among you who want to capture the local colours. The area also has some great and inexpensive local eateries, including Surguru on Mission Street, a popular eating place for both locals, expats and tourists, which provides delicious South Indian vegetarian food at very reasonable prices. The White Town (the old colonial part of Pondicherry) is within a 10 minutes walk from St Theresa Road where you will find beautiful colonial buildings which take you back to colonial times and gives you an impression of being in Southern France. The beach is just the other side of White Town, with a beautiful promenade where you can do your morning walk, whilst admiring the sunrise or take a gentle early evening stroll, listening to the waves and feeling the gentle breeze.
  • It's a centrally located property manager by a local manager who is quite helpful . I could walk most of sights from the place.

    Rohan2020-01-19T00:00:00Z
  • It was a wonderful stay. Gopal is a wonderful host. He was always available for any query and helped us a lot during our stay. He had even arranged for a scooty for us before hand and I hadn't even asked for it. Room was very clean and well maintained. And the security guard & house cleaning staff are also very well behaved and helped us with some tips for street shopping and local tours. All in all, it was a really pleasant stay. ❤️❤️

    Samvab2020-01-15T00:00:00Z
  • Best location to stay as White town and Rock beach are at walking distance. Amazing manager who'll guide and help throughout your trip. Very helpful people. Rooms and washroom are clean and very good, which is hard to find.

    Ritwik2019-12-29T00:00:00Z
  • One of the finest and cost effective stays you will ever find . It was super cosy and we sparklingly clean and the staff was really sweet in making all the arrangements for our visit . It was so smooth and we had a wonderful stay . The most important and plus point is it’s centrally located and we could just walk down the lanes without any hiccups !

  • Firstly I think we should say thanks to the host for being wonderful. It was first visit to the town for me and my wife. Thanks to the manager Gopal for guiding us around. The apartment is wonderful, spacious and well equipped. The place is well maintained. Needed to remind the housekeepers to clean after every alternate day but Gopal immediately helps out and arranges. Location of the apartment is amazing which helps connect to all prime places in the town.

The interiors and the linen in our cosy studio apartment close to the Promenade are all blue. Come explore Pondicherry, the 'Nice' of India. P.S We have one 2bhk for six people, two 1bhk for four people and and two studios for 2 people in the same building: Ama La Vida, Taktsang, Uhuru, Casa Inca and Cote d'Azur.
    Peaceful and serene
  • Great location. Lovely flat. Very clean. But what we really appreciated was the fact that my companion fell ill and the hosts were really flexible about me booking another night. They also recommended a hospital in the french district for us to go to, and were helpful in letting us check out when we could. Thank you Pushpa for your help once again.

He was very courteous and suggested great places to visit and eat at. Happy to say that we covered most important spots during our short stay at Pondicherry. Not to forget, the gate guard was very polite and helped us carrying the luggage back and forth. I definitely look forward to visiting and staying here again.

The rooms are located at the back of a cafe and spa, which was very convenient for early morning cups of tea and midday massages! Loved how quiet it was, and the fact that it was walking distance from everything - the beach, markets, other cafes and restaurants.

All the many tourist spots are walking distance so you don't have to spend a lot of money in transport. My mom and me loved the fact there were all everyday appliance in the room. One could cook if you don't want to eat outside. there are also many cafes and restaurants around. Dhana, the care taker, is extremely helpful. he helped us save some money by guiding us to use the local transport for Paradise beach. He was always available no matter what and very kind and polite human being. the staff was very friendly and greeted us with positivity and happiness each time they saw us. Overall it was a lovely stay and we enjoyed our short stay at Alex's place. Would love to visit again!

It was spacious, very clean, peaceful though in a busy area, had a kitchenette with an induction cooker and other basic kitchen needs. Most attractions are in walking distance, the area seemed very safe for us 2 women as we could stay out even after dinner. The beach is at 3 minutes walk and most of our evenings were spent there. Many restaurants and cafes nearby. Also we found a small store for basic needs. Swiggy also delivers here. The dog Lily was a plus point as my daughter enjoyed playing with her. Staff were very helpful, the room is cleaned daily. Dhana was available for help or guidance any time of the day. Overall, a great place for a relaxing stay

  • Bhavna is a wonderful host. She is very caring and considerate, was in touch throughout to check our whereabouts and how are we doing. Room is same as shown in pictures. House is perfectly located midway to white house and Auroville.

    Swati2020-02-27T00:00:00Z
  • Bhavna is without a doubt the best Airbnb host I’ve ever had - and I’ve been using Airbnb all over the world. She’s incredibly thoughtful and caring and she puts so much time care and time into making sure you’re comfortable. She felt far more like a close friend than a host! The room is sparkling clean, there are lots of lovely touches that make it feel like home. It’s located next to all the beaches and attractions in Pondicherry which makes it a great home base. It also is cordoned off from the rest of the house so you really do feel like you have your own space. I had a truly wonderful stay. Ps try Bhavna’s lemongrass tea if you can- to die for !

    Rushil2020-02-24T00:00:00Z
  • By far the best room I've stayed in. The Host was so welcoming and kind. She was so helpful and made sure we had a good time in Pondicherry by providing us with a list of places to visit and a scooter as well. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the House of Zanzibar.

    Trenton2020-02-23T00:00:00Z

  • Bhavna Ma’am is a super super host by all means. It is amazing to see how she manages everything right away from cleanliness to good tasty home made food. My personal recommendation to anyone eating here is her jeera Paratha 😍 She also provides two wheeler on rent which makes things extremely comfortable for the one who intense to justify his time. Three cheers to Bhavna ma’am Hip hip hurreyyyyy!

    You can enjoy a big Fridge to cool bottles and food and ice cubes maker. A kettle with tea, coffee and sugar is provided for your convenience. 40 litres of drinking water is granted for free for each stay. The house is equipped with batteries as back up in case of power cut. We are renting this place since 2013 and we got more than 65 5 stars Review. However for admin reason, we were obliged to deactivate the old listing and to create this new one. I inserted below some of the best review we had on the past listing. September 2018 Sakeet - : Great place. You can hear the waves. Yes literally “hear” the waves. Great place to chill. They are sweet and polite. Always helpful. A wonderful stay. Kritti: Breathtaking views, amazing amenities, and friendly hosts, this place has it all. August 2018: Neha: The place overlooks the waters of Serenity Beach and is located about 3km from White Town. The house is beautiful, surrounded by greenery and is away form the hustle bustle of street traffic. My boyfriend and I stayed over for 2 nights and were extremely pleased with the conditions. The bedroom and bathroom were clean and well stocked with essentials. We were provided with timely room service and given local sightseeing tips by Mr Vijay. The porch adjoining the room deserves a special mention and makes for quite a romantic setting, with the splashing sound of waves in the distance and a constant, cool breeze. Ananya: Great place, quiet and lovely view. The housekeeping very friendly and sweet and the place was clean and cozy July 2018 Chinmay: Don't look anywhere else. You have got to stay at this place. Great room, amazing host, awesome balconies and terraces and more importantly the best view you could find. You can also enjoy the sunrise from here. The view and the calmness here is to die for. Just perfect! Appoorva: The place is so beautiful, perfectly maintained and gives a homely feeling. View from the penthouse is to die for! Alex has maintained the place very well and housekeeping lady (Mary) is the sweetest of all. It is the best place for a relaxing vacation and a must try. Had a lovely time there. Looking forward to visiting again. :) P.S- Just had a little problem with the address but Alex sorted that out by giving trusted auto waala’s number. March 2018 Sourish: It's a comfortable place with a splendid view. Perfect place if one wants to stay for a short trip. February 2018: Dinesh: Views were fantastic! Would need to open my Oxford dictionary to explain the views. Hosts were extremely friendly, including the dog :) Was expecting a mediocre property after booking it for such a low price, however the property is extremely spacious and private. I loved the place, would have paid even 4 times for this place. Wished we could have extended our stay, but it was not available. Sarthak: The place is surely the best if you're traveling to Pondicherry. It is not exactly in the city centre and thus is quiet and that is what we were looking for. You can sit in the balconies all day long and enjoy the cool sea breeze with the astonishing view. The host is wonderful and very cordial and helpful in all respects. It is really nicely done up and the place is just about 10 minutes drive from Promenade Beach. We had a car so commuting was not an issue at all. Even otherwise, there are autorickshaws available for travelling to any place in Pondicherry. Will definitely recommend this place and will surely stay there again when in Pondicherry. Ramees: Amazing place with a beautiful view!. You can relax and unwind looking at the sea. Roshan: Totally addicted to the place. Have stayed at Caroline's place for the third time. Loved it again. And communication with Alexandre was easy. December 2018 Ishita: The place is really cute and best for people looking for a relaxing weekend getaway. It is a little far from the city, so the commute is a little difficult. The hosts are very cool and the beach view fantastic. Franckle: It is an absolutely wonderful place. Perfect to have some quiet time, relax and chill. The balcony is the perfect place to relax in the evening to the sound of the sea. The white town is a little bit away and its best to get a scooty on rent to move around but the serenity beach is close by. The host was also very helpful and easily reachable in case of any questions. Anbu: The place was way better than what we were hoping for. It is located in a quiet neighbourhood. The view from the balcony is definitely unmissable. We spent a long time just sitting on the swing in the balcony, was very relaxing. The room was very clean, had two double beds, enough towels, Kettle, Coffee, tea, a fridge, AC, everything was neat and as mentioned in the description. A must stay place if you are a couple and planning for a quite getaway. November 2017 Rakesh: Amazing place! You get what you see. It's one the best stays if you're looking for an unwinding experience. The balcony offers great views and the sound of the waves crashing the beach makes it a perfect holiday stay(.....) The house is a bit remote but the experience of staying here is simply amazing! The hosts are very cooperative. :) May 2017 Nikhil: Its a great place with awesome view of the beach. Very spacious and clean. Big terrace with outside seating arrangement February 2017: Puneeta: This house is every child's drawing come true! A white house with pitched roof, a small garden adorned with bougainvilleas. A breathtaking view of clusters of palm trees on golden sand, with vibrant fishermen boats and dual shaded blue waters of the Bay of Bengal and constant cool breeze. The penthouse is clean and well equipped with basic necessities including wifi! And in case of any help regarding food delivery, taxi or auto (Arij was our guy, he was on time and very reasonable as compared to others), Caroline (the host) was just a text away. She is very sweet and tries her best to make you feel comfortable at home. The house gives you best of both worlds - it is peaceful with a great view, yet it is very close to White Town. The only backdrop is that the house is isolated and off the main road so the approach to the house is not that great, specially at night as there are no street lights. But it's still quite safe. Overall I had an amazing stay! Sitting on the swing, taking in the best view either of the endless sea or the star-lit sky. Staying here was definitely the highlight of my visit to Pondicherry. Rohan: picturesque, calm place overlooking the beach. the host was very accommodating and helpful. the rooms were excellent. definitely recommend for someone looking to get away from the city. Dicember 2016: Krittika: Amazing property with stunning views from the balcony. The swing in the balcony transports you to another world. There is ample space and privacy on the top floor. The location is very good if you are looking for some peace and quite. It is 2-3 kms aways from the main city, therefore recommend hiring a vehicle for commuting to and fro, although there are local autos available a quick walk away. Caroline is a lovely host, she was quick in her communications and also helped us with local sight seeing options. Thank you for having us over. Would definitely recommend it to everybody. November 2016 Roshan: We had a great stay at the penthouse. Close to the sea, an awesome view. Communication with Caroline and Alex was easy. Best for group and couple travellers. Such a lovely home and a perfect way to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Pranavi: The location cannot be any better. Such an awesome room and the terrace. Perfect sea view. The place exactly matches the description.The host's family is so warm and helpful. Bhuhshan: Morning you get up you will feel refreshing soon by the view of rising sun and greenery around Place was much more lovelier than what is seen in the pics. Its very neat and tidy and with a very beautiful view of Serenity beach. Its very peaceful as it is away from the roadside and can accommodate 4 people easily. You have to take an auto to reach this place but if a bike is rented its not an issue. If you are looking for a perfect getaway and peaceful evenings this is a place for you.
    Our place is very safe. You are closed to all the best things to do in Pondicherry and Auroville but apart of the crowded places to let you relax. Ad example, no car or bike driving around our place because we are located into dead-end street. 3 min from Serenity beach.
  • It’s a beautiful place. The view from the Balcony is like no other you’ve ever seen before. Expect a spectacular view of the Bay of Bengal, wonderful greenery and a lot of Parrots and other wonderful birds flying about. For this alone, the room is more than worth it. Coming to the location, it’s very easy to reach provides you have any mode of transport of your own. Else, Alex would send you a number of a trustworthy and reliable auto guy who can arrive at a phone call’s notice. The area might seem a little scary at first to us city folk but it is completely safe (we came late at night almost everyday and there was absolutely no issues). The room is very clean and has everything you need in order to have a comfortable stay. Thanks, Alex, for being a wonderful and gracious host to us and we look forward to seeing you again! :)

    Ashish2020-01-19T00:00:00Z
  • Once I booked the property, Alexandre send me a message letting me know that he won't be available but his manager Vijay would take care of everything. Vijay made sure that everything we needed was made available. Amazing sea view from the room. It's a little interior, but if you have a vechile you should be fine. Overall a great experience.

    Rathna2020-01-05T00:00:00Z
  • Expect a wonderful beach view pent house.

    Ravi Kumar2019-12-24T00:00:00Z
  • The place was great, clean and keeps us close to the nature. Host were are truly awesome and friendly They invited us to his DJ night as well.. it was lovely to be at Alex's place. ♥️ The place is safe too. Good parking space. Thank you for making our stay fruitful and memorable.

    Vani2019-12-08T00:00:00Z
  • If you're planning a trip to Pondicherry, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND you stay at this place! The unit itself was clean, spacious, and the views from the terrace/balcony were spectacular!! Alex was very prompt and helpful with local tips and ideas, and his friendly staff were very accommodating too. There are two adorable, friendly doggies on the compound too. Really appreciated all the thoughtful amenities like strong WiFi, drinking water in the room, and for Alex connecting us to local auto drivers who were very professional and helpful in helping us commute and navigate through the city. The location is remote enough to be very serene and pretty but also well connected enough for us to be able to take the autos right to the door and order food delivery thru swiggy, etc. And the view of the sea from the (three!) terraces, is absolutely stunning! Will definitely be telling my friends and family to consider staying here when they visit Pondy.

    A simple art gallery home, with a very homely and simple feel for all kinds of guests. It is on the second floor, common area are shared with other guests. You also have a good view of the ocean from the fourth floor common terrace.
    It's a fully furnished room with original artwork for the client to savour. The room has a very homely feel to it, the highlight of the room is the bed, it's antique & chic and most importantly will give you a goodnights sleep.
    Our neighbourhood is very cosmopolitan and gives you a unique perspective of cohabitation.
  • Aurodhan is situated about 200-300 metres from the Rock Beach and entry point of White Town. I found the room and common room as vibrant as shown in the pictures. It's a nice comfortable, no-nonsense place. The best bit about Aurodhan is that there are cultural events occuring during the weekends, and I happen to witness and get mesmerized by one. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality.

    Amrita2020-02-23T00:00:00Z
  • This was by far one of the most memorable Airbnb experiences I have had. The place is tastefully done with antique artefacts and marvellous paintings. The beds have no old world charm and transports you to a bygone era. Had a delightful stay here with my daughter. It's close to Promenade beach and Ashram. The staff is very helpful and the art gallery is exquisite. The host, Kritatma was very helpful and ensured that we have a great stay. I recommend this place.

    Susmita2020-02-10T00:00:00Z
  • Aurodhan is more than a place to stay, it’s also an Art Gallery and Cultural space so expect your creative senses to be tingled. I met some interesting people (who were also staying there) and had some wonderful conversations. I woke up in the morning to the sound of odissi being practiced in the gallery and it was a very unique experience. Unlike other BNBs the common spaces are both usable and beautiful! The room was tasteful, clean and very comfortable. It’s a simple, homely and no fuss kind of atmosphere which I loved. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Pondicherry.

    Mansi2020-01-31T00:00:00Z
  • This homestay is actually an Art Gallery with exquisite paintings and sculptures all around. A very different experience indeed! Th heritage feel is complete with the outstanding bed (also seen in the photographs). Sleep quality was excellent. Loved the hospitality! Am definitely going to be back here!

    Sutapa2020-01-28T00:00:00Z
  • Great stay at Kritama's place. Wonderful hosts and fantastic experience! Highly recommended!

    Hemanth2020-01-19T00:00:00Z
  • Great property, amazing host, exceptionally friendly staff! Couldn't have asked for more . Lovely memories and a wonderful experience...thanks krtatma and Ma'am for the lovely stay.

    Apratim2019-08-19T00:00:00Z
  • I had a delightful stay at Aurodhan and I'm so glad that I did. How often can you say your Airbnb was an actual art gallery? The family is so welcoming and you immediately feel a part of things. Artwork is every where and the antique furnishings add to the unique art and spiritual vibe. There was an artist opening one night and an acoustic concert the next. The hosts provided great recommendations for restaurants for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Pondi has excellent food offerings and the main historic quarters are just 10-20 minutes from Aurodhan. If you're looking for a quiet, unique place with a cool hipster vibe, you won't be disappointed. Leave the $200/night places to those who don't know that this is the place to unpack your bags and reconnect for a while.

    Abhishek2020-02-19T00:00:00Z
  • Utsarg’s place is well designed, calm, spacious. It’s almost near to all the major places and the co-host (host’s father) is very helpful in guiding us with the local places and other amenities. We enjoyed spending time at this place with host’s father. He helped us in renting scooters for roaming across the city. Whatever difficulty you face while on your trip, just contact them and they’ll help you with it without a hesitation. They gel along well which is much needed as a host. Overall experience was satisfactory and I would say you would be happy if you could get bookings to this beautiful home. Felt like it was our home away from our home ;)

    Sagar2020-01-23T00:00:00Z
  • 1: The Hobbit is a tastefully done up place , clean, with all the amenities that you would require for your stay. 2: It is fairly close to white town and the beach . 3: The surrounding area is dirty and smelly though and there is no view from the house. 4: Mr Sajjan is a thorough gentleman and a good host

    Misba2019-10-26T00:00:00Z
  • Hospitality and warm communication. We were very well received and despite sharing the common areas (kitchen and living room), we were able to have our privacy. The accommodation is tastefully decorated and perfectly clean. We recommend this accommodation for its value for money.

    Emi2019-10-11T00:00:00Z
  • Utsarg and his dad were really sweet and they are amazing hosts. The place was far better than expected. Access to the kitchen was provided and the cleanliness of the rooms are commendable! The rooms were pretty cozy, quiet and well maintained. Good hospitality and good facilities too! The "going above and beyond" to make our stay memorable and hassle free is what makes it one of my recommended places to stay at Pondi.

    Sherly2019-09-02T00:00:00Z
  • Both Utsarg and his father are fantastic hosts - they make you feel like you are in your own home. We stayed in their place for a couple of days and had a wonderful time. We sat with them for hours talking about life, sharing experiences and what not over a cup of evening tea. One night when we were hungry around mid-night, he took us to the Rock beach because that is the only place that offered food at that time. Would highly recommend this place to all visitors

    Prateek Singh2019-08-25T00:00:00Z
  • Utsarg's dad was great! The milk and the toast that he gave was amazing..! Its a great place, it has got everything one can long for..!! The place is very new and keenly designed.. :) The bedroom is distance free, had a great sleep after long time. Place of rejenuation and refreshment.. Local tips were also helpful.. Once again thanks a lot :)

    Anubhav2019-07-22T00:00:00Z
  • Utsarg and his father have been an exceptional host. Helped us with an overview of the locality and direction. You can expect a quick response. They make you feel at home. I would refer everyone here

  • Sree villa is a tidy and lovely place equipped with everything you need. Kavitha is a great host and there when you need her. She was very accommodating and very quick to respond with any questions. The whole place made us feel at ease. I would definitely come again!

  • "Amazing place to live in if you are looking for a more homely experience. This place is a perfect house to live in for an overall experience of Pondicherry's cultural richness.... It's beautifully entrance is enchanting. And the beautiful garden view is just perfect for the morning calmness. This place is located in a residential area away from the noise and disturbance of the traffic. The room is perfect for 4 people (only if 4 friends are travelling together as the stay has 1 room for 4 people) The hosts are amazing and very warm. "

    Soham2019-11-10T00:00:00Z
  • Sparkling clean place which is just right if you are looking for a home away from home. Simple yet splendid place with lot of greenery and a friendly doggo! Kavitha garu is truly a super host! I'd visited with my parents and they loved the place too. Share the happiness.

    Anupama2019-10-23T00:00:00Z
  • 3 of us stayed at Sree's cottage for 1 night. The property is very beautiful, spacious room, well maintained, and provides good facilities. The host was very sweet and kind, and also was very quick to respond to all our queries. The breakfast was very tasty and homely. If at all I visit Pondicherry again, I'd look for no other place. I'm glad I found this place. In all, my stay at Pondy was very pleasant and relaxing! Would definitely recommend Sree's cottage for ppl who like to stay away from the crowd and like calm and quiet place.

    Sneha2019-10-13T00:00:00Z
  • Kavitha is a lovely host and the place is just beautiful. With its rich antique look, it gives homely feels. The front garden is very nice and I managed to get a lot of “insta-worthy” pictures. 😊

    Niyati2019-10-07T00:00:00Z
  • The place was almost at the start of the city itself. Kavitha mam was awesome. We were five of the friends. Before booking we were skeptical like whether it will be good for friends. But it was really awesome. She had prepared the breakfast which was very tasty. The place was very peaceful and was clean. It was very well connected. There was garden space with swing being the main attraction which was full of greenery. We staying in the city found a heaven in this place. Thank you so much for making our trip really memorable. Definitely recommend it. Family or friends group definitely worth try.

  • Without a doubt, one of the best places I’ve ever stayed in, at Pondy. Everything was just right. Beautiful spacious rooms with a great patio. Shout out to Dhana, the caretaker for being an absolute sweetheart.

    Apurv2020-02-18T00:00:00Z
  • Great stay ,great location.Recommend this highly.

    Krishnaswamy2020-02-06T00:00:00Z
  • A lovely, spacious apartment with a good-sized living room. Having the water filter in the house was particularly useful. The location was exactly what we wanted - on the border of the historic French quarter and the Tamil quarter, so we could walk to everything. We caught a cold from sleeping with the AC on, but the fans were perfectly adequate. The locking mechanism for the house makes it slightly awkward for a group stay but we managed.

    Mercedes2020-01-26T00:00:00Z
  • Stylish and comfortable house in a great location on the edge of the white city. Steps away from the quiet streets, pleasant restaurants and great shops in the White City but also within easy walking of the bustle of Heritage town with its markets and temples. Highly recommended.

    David And Felicity2020-01-14T00:00:00Z
  • Don’t look beyond this, this place will definitely surpass your expectation. Loved each and everything about it. A very well maintained Heritage villa in white town with artistic touches here and there, what else do you need. Loved it.

    Vishal Kr2020-01-05T00:00:00Z

    Welcome to our studio apartment in the French town. A stone's throw away from the beach road, it has an air-conditioned bedroom with a balcony and a king-size bed. We have everything you need for a comfortable stay: a fully equipped kitchen, premium furnishings, AC, hot water, linen and towels, television, WIFI, a desk and two chairs in case you wish to burn the midnight oil. There's ample parking space on the boulevard to park your car or bikes.
    The Inca Trail in 2017 with my brother was undoubtedly one of the most memorable hike we did in South America. After three and half days of walking through lush green forests, mountains and ruins, we reached the Sun Gate, only to find Machu Picchu draped in mist, a thick cloud cover and torrential rain. We stood there in disbelief for an hour and headed slowly closer towards our destination. Suddenly the skies cleared up and Machu Picchu revealed itself in all its splendour. Similarly, Pondicherry and its cultural heritage grow on you over time. Casa Inca is a charming green studio apartment with a balcony overlooking a tree below, and with a blissful view of the Bay of Bengal to the left. Come discover patiently the tucked-away treasures of Pondicherry. P.S We have one 2bhk for six people, two 1bhk for four people and and two studios for 2 people in the same building. Ama La Vida, Taktsang, Uhuru, Casa Inca and Cote d'Azur.
    Peaceful and serene
  • Definitely one of the best AirBnBs I’ve stayed in. The host was super helpful, sent a list of places in and around Pondicherry so that we could plan before we arrive. The place was pretty easy to find as it’s on a main road and the location was also pretty great. All the good cafes, ashram, park is less than a 20 min walk. The apartment itself is small, cosy, super clean and very well maintained. There was everything you could possibly need to have a pleasant stay. Even the cutlery that was present was very thoughtfully chosen. The WiFi was good, the rooms were well ventilated and had a balcony as well. A common terrace had a wonderful view of the beach. Overall, this is a great place to stay!

  • I stayed in Casa Inca for 6 days in Feb 2020. I was welcomed by the host ( Pushpa aunty) at the property and check-in was seamless. Property is as seen as in the pictures. Clean and maintained very well. All amenities shown in pictures including free WiFi was available. Location of the property is amazing, 3 min walk to beach promenade and very close to ashram and school for perfect eye sight. Private parking is not there however no worries as there was ample space on the street in front for safe parking. View of Sunrise and the sea from the terrace is the highlight of the property. Host was always approachable, very responsive to requests and provided information on local food, places to see and scooter rental. Hosts ensured that me and my daughter had a comfortable stay. If you are looking for a comfortable accommodation in White town, this is the perfect place.

  • Sobodh is a nice friendly person and good host. Whenever we needed to ask him any questions he was more than happy to help and our queries were responded to promptly. The apartment is very secure, spacious and clean and is actually bigger than the pictures shown with two good size double bedrooms, two bathrooms, sitting and dining area, a balcony and even a roof terrace. There is good WIFI and sattelite TV. The kitchen is equipped with a range of cooking utensils, microwave and water filtration machine. The house is located in a clean residential area with its own enclosed parking spaces and is near to eateries and popular shops. Unfortunately our sleep was disturbed by howling wild dogs through the night, but this is a problem throughout Pondy and no reflection on the property. Many thanks Subodh. Airbnb as it should be!

  • Had the best of time at your place. It's proximity to Sri Aurobindo Ashram and all the best restaurants in the neighbourhood made it extra special. The place is sparkling clean with thoughtful touches all around. Barring the loud speaker next door on a Sunday morning and evening (guess it's a church or a gathering place), the area was quiet throughout. Thanks for stacking up the mini fridge with the necessary amenities and giving us the tips on local restaurants; it was very kind. Hope to meet you both again, soon! :)

    Nitin2020-01-14T00:00:00Z
  • Great space, very hospitable with many great local tips, great reading material.

    Niel2020-01-11T00:00:00Z
  • When I entered the house, I was in awe. It was such a beautiful house, arranged with a great taste. Being a cleanliness freak, I was so much keen about the same and it was no less than my expectations. Locationwise it was so convenient for me to see places on my own. I wish to go again and again.

    Seema2019-12-09T00:00:00Z
  • It is a nice, clean and pretty apartment, situated in a nice and quite neighbourhood. The host Ritu and her husband Sushant are very sweet people. They helped us in every way possible. I would recommend this place to anyone who’s visiting Pondicherry and looking for a place to stay near Promenade.

    Saurabh2019-11-12T00:00:00Z
  • Ritu was a very warm host. I visited with my wife and 2 kids. She was thoughtful to stock the fridge with enough amenities which took care of breakfast for a couple of days. Her house is clean, well planned and with little trinkets and a library around to lift your mood. There is also equipment for a quick cook up and a fridge. She offered excellent suggestions for dining around White town and for our Auroville visit. She was prompt in all her communications and responses. Extremely Close proximity to white town. She also has a place in Auroville which we would like to check out next time ! :)

    Ashdin2019-10-29T00:00:00Z
  • Ritu’s place is amazing. Clean , well located quiet street.

    Welcome to our studio apartment in the French town. A stone's throw away from the beach road, it has an air-conditioned bedroom with a balcony and a living room (AC) with a sofa-bed. We have everything you need for a comfortable stay: a fully equipped kitchen, premium furnishings, AC, hot water, linen and towels, television, WIFI. There's ample parking space on the boulevard in case you need to park your car.
    Taktsang, or Tiger's Nest is a monastery in Bhutan perched precariously on a cliff. After the Druk Path trek with my best friend and brother, we hiked up to this serene monastery. The gross national happiness index philosophy is deeply ingrained in the Himalayan Kingdom. Pondicherry and Auroville have similar peaceful, spiritual and happy vibes. You are welcome to give time a break in our nest.
    Peaceful and serene
  • Great place for a small family, we were a group of 4 and had a great time. The place is located just a minute walk away from Rock beach and White town which is a bonus. We spent enough of our time hanging out on terrace. Space was sparkling clean and had all the amenities as promised. Slightly expensive but will recommend to anyone who is coming in a group!

    Ammar2020-02-25T00:00:00Z
  • Samarth and his mom are great hosts. They recommended the nearby places to eat and visit even before we arrived in Pondicherry. Pushpaji made us very comfortable and at home. She was there within minutes of us arriving,and she explained to use everything about the house. The house is well equipped for a very comfortable stay. Most of the places to visit and eat are at walking distance. Thank you for hosting us.

    Rohit2020-02-16T00:00:00Z
  • It's a nice place to stay. The location is amazing and hosts are very helpful.

    Manjiri2020-02-08T00:00:00Z
  • Close to the Promenade. Fantastic location. Very cosy for 3-4 people. And we were only girls but it was super safe too.

    Madhu2020-02-02T00:00:00Z
  • Decent, beautiful, clean and right in the heart of french town. 5 mins away from beach and all great cafes. Superb sea facing terrace. Pushpa auntie is an amazing host, very warm and helpful.

    Mansha2020-01-29T00:00:00Z
  • It was a truly amazing experience staying at this place and we couldn't have asked for more. A big shout out to Pushpa and Samarth for making our stay super comfortable.

    Rishav2020-01-26T00:00:00Z
  • The place is meticulous and thoughtful. Taktsang had all the amenities and they also provided couple of other utensils on our request. The icing on the cake cake was the bench and table on the terrace. We had a wonderful family time in the evenings there, and also had a private pizza party 😉.

    Anil2020-01-17T00:00:00Z
  • Accessibility - The stay is located in the white town and a stone's throw away from the rock beach. About the stay - The place has a bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen space and a hall. The hall and bedroom both have an AC. There is a sofa bed in the hall which is comfortable for two people to sleep on. There are enough amenities provided for you to cook if needed. The rooftop, which is accessible 24*7, has an amazing view of the beach and the sight of sunrise is something you don't want to miss. Hospitality - The hosts are really nice people. Though i didn't get to meet them personally. They proactively contacted me to provide the location and also provided a to do lists of sorts. Check-in is post 1 PM which may be a let down for a few but nevertheless the place is worth the wait. Amenities - You kinda have everything that you require for a homestay Overall had a good experience and would recommend for people to try it out.

There are many other rooms here, each one is styled differently. I suggest you have a look at all her listings before picking the one that is right for you.

    Mukul2019-09-22T00:00:00Z
  • It was simply a wonderful experience, especially for someone like me who was making her first solo trip. The rooms and washrooms and the common seating areas are very clean, easy check in and check out, Christopher and Manjula are simply great, Savirine is very quick to respond to your queries, Christopher will actually sweet talk you into waking up early to see the sunrise, but it is really worth it. Just go and experience the stay.

    Shraddha2019-08-05T00:00:00Z
  • Nice comfortable stay!

    Nabajit2019-07-08T00:00:00Z
  • When planning a Pondi trip, a must explore area is the White Town. Nestled in the heart of white town, is this lovely villa. Everything that you'd want to cover, is within 10 minutes of distance. That's the beauty of this location. Once in, Manjula and Christopher - Villa Meena staff- that I interacted with were super helpful and warm. From arranging my red vespa to accomodating my luggage post checkout... Thanks for making the trip even better you two! Talking about the room, it was cozy and was filled with small surprises... A wall decal of a cat chasing birds... artsy night bulbs, canvas paintings... I loved the touch! I recommend Villa Meena to anyone coming for a trip to Pondicherry. Old, young, solo or couple... You'll have a good time for sure.

    Vartika2019-07-07T00:00:00Z

  • Our stay here had been delightful and was peppered with thoughtful touches such as a welcome note. The ambience is relaxed and fresh.

    Shivangi2020-01-01T00:00:00Z
  • The place is fantastic and Tenzing has done it very thoughfully. The view of the sea is fabulous. Another big advantage is that Its only about 10-15 mins walk to the White town. The only thing that does not impress is the approach to the place. The lane is a little dirty.

    Nidhi2019-12-27T00:00:00Z
  • Tenzings's place is a cozy and peaceful space and is just as shown in the pictures. He was very friendly, easy to reach out to, and responded promptly. The availability of a parking spot within the premises was also convenient. The place came equipped with all the amenities listed and is ideally located about 10 mins from the happening and bustling streets with a wide range of restaurants to dine in/out from. For those looking for a quiet and peaceful time, I highly recommend Tenzings's place.

    Nikita2019-12-24T00:00:00Z
  • Had a great time at Tenzing's place. It is set up very thoughtfully and maintained well. Few key things that stand out- very spacious and windy room and balcony, good view of the sea, park next to the place, fully set up kitchen, and Amazon fire.

    Mandeep2019-12-08T00:00:00Z
  • Highly recommend! Tenzing was a wonderful host. He always replied quickly and was very helpful with all my various questions and needs. The flat itself is just as pictured, fully equipped with very nice amenities (I especially enjoyed the great shower pressure / comfy bed) along with a stunning view. As the listing states, it is a bit of a walk from the main touristic areas.

    Rebecca2019-12-05T00:00:00Z
  • Beautiful apartment in a good location. The apartment was as described and looks the same as shown in the pictures. Tenzing is a wonderful host and always available. He also helped us with places to eat and visit which were very helpful. Highly recommend and will visit again.

    Pratik2019-11-29T00:00:00Z
  • I and my hubby had a lovely stay at Tenzing's beautiful penthouse. It was indeed home away from home for us. The penthouse very thoughtfully made & it is truly value for money. All the amenities are well maintained and function smoothly. The view from the patio is lovely and the outdoor kitchen is a ideal. Tenzing is truly a super host as he was always there to attend to all our queries and was there to receive & send us off as well. We had a lovely peaceful & rested vacation.

    Munaf2020-01-02T00:00:00Z
  • Evey travel has a story associated... In my case the main characters were Auro, Ram and Auro's mother. It was an amazing experience right from booking to check out. I couldn't be any more happy as this was my first Airbnb experience. The location is superb. Everything at a stone's throw distance. Ram was quick in response and gave a lot of local tips and also helped us with bike rental at a very cheap rate. Auro's mother was very down to earth and ensured that we felt like home. I bet that not 5 start can also give the homely touch. The place is clean and well maintained. It had a very good terrace with sea view. Couldn't expect anything better than this. Thanks a lot to Auro and his family for making our trip memorable.

    Our mud house is walking distance from the sea. It has an earthy ambiance as it is constructed with mud with a traditional technique. A part of our family house yet very private as it is separated by a garden. Some important locations - French Heritage Town 1km, Rocky Beach 1.2km, Aurobindo Ashram 1.5 km, Railway Station 3 km, New bus Terminus 3.4km, Serenity Beach 4km, Auroville Bakery 6.5km, Auroville Matrimandir 11 km, Paradise Beach 11km
    There's a double bed for two on a raised cement slab can accommodate a 3rd person on a slightly narrow spare mattress. The front wall is completely openable to the sea breeze or closed to the noise of children playing in the street outside.
    The neighbourhood is an interesting mix of fishermen and local Tamil people. In the evening one can hear children playing outside. Many people are surprised to discover the beautiful oasis that is our house. We are centrally located. Its a place to unwind after experiencing the touristy part of Pondicherry. At present we are offering a discount as there is a construction happening next door and it maybe a bit noisy.
  • Kavita's was our superhost on our trip to Pondicherry. She was quick to respond to any queries we had upon booking and also helped us before we arrived. We were delighted by the hospitality we had at her place. Her place is very tastefully kept, clean, cozy and comfortable. It is also very close to white-town and other essential places of Pondicherry. I would definitely recommend her place to all my friends as well.

  • The House of Mud offers an independent cottage eco-friendly home, surrounded by plants, with the green of trees visible through the sky lights and birds chirping in the morning, you have the feeling of being outside the city while staying in the middle of Pondicherry. The room is thoughtfully decorated and keeps very cool. Kavitha and her husband are exceptionally kind and welcoming, and their two dogs are so gentle and adorable!

    Nithya2020-02-20T00:00:00Z
  • Beautiful home, with excellent amenities and a lot of advice within the room to help us get around. Also, it is only a few minutes walk away from the beach. We had to shorten our trip last minute but Kavita was very understanding and gracious. thank you again

    Nadia2020-02-12T00:00:00Z
  • Kavita and Prithviraj were really wonderful hosts. The house of mud is such a well designed and pretty looking place with so many thoughtful touches. There are these cute notes everywhere which are even entertaining sometimes 😄. Can't wait to come back!

    Apurv2020-02-10T00:00:00Z
  • The House of Mud is a beautiful, calm space. After traveling around Pondicherry the whole day, the room served as a perfect detox. My favourite part was the small, thoughtful notes around the room that ensured i was well informed about the space and the amenities. It's a little outside the main town, but still serves as a window into the life of Tamil households. Thoroughly enjoyed me stay and can't wait to be back!

    Seepiya2019-12-23T00:00:00Z
  • Excellent place to stay in Puducherry, very helpful hosts and a very nice room!

    Christoph2019-12-15T00:00:00Z
  • Had a wonderful stay! A calm and enjoyable place! Loved the ambiance! Very safe! ❤️❤️

    Swetha2019-12-08T00:00:00Z
  • Ms. Kavita is one of those great host you would always wish for your travels. Since the enquiry phase she has been quick to respond and very helpful while booking. Even when we reached the destination in the morning, she was quick to call and direct us to her place. And the place didn't disappoint at all. It was a spacious place with a lot of thoughtful decorations which I personally liked. The other basic amenities were all available which made our stay very pleasant and peaceful. I would really recommend anyone to let Ms. Kavita be your host while you enjoy your Pondicherry trip.

    Serenity Garden Studios is an extension of our home, inspired by contemporary and sustainable architecture, amidst a growing garden. It’s simple and minimalistic and reflects our commitment to aesthetic sensibilities. Our contemporary rooms serve just the right amount of comfort without compromising on beauty and simplicity. The beach, an integral part of our lives, is just a minute’s walk away. If you are looking for a quiet place to unwind, then you have arrived.
    Modern in design yet minimalistic in thought, our room is well-equipped with essential amenities to provide you with a comfortable stay. We provide you with two single beds, an attached bathroom and a closet space big enough to accommodate your belongings. Hot water on tap, portable drinking water and in-room tea and coffee arrangements have been made available for you.
    Residing on the outskirts of Pondicherry, Serenity Beach is yet largely untouched as compared to its counterpart – the Rock Beach. This means you are far removed from the hustle-bustle of an otherwise busy touristy town. Our place is nestled right off the scenic ECR stretch and conveniently located between the main town and Auroville, with both just 3 kms away. There are limited but highly recommended restaurants in the vicinity. Sea food lovers, if you’re lucky then you can sink your teeth into the freshest catch of the day.
  • Such a awesome and clean place. Serenity Garden is very near to Serenity beach. Location is very good and the care taker Raju is always available in the property. All in all I loved the stay.

    Amit2020-02-25T00:00:00Z
  • Perfect place to feel connected to Mother Nature! Very natural and neatly kept place.

    Harsha2020-02-09T00:00:00Z
  • Arnab's place is perfect for anyone looking to be close to Serenity beach and having a peaceful vacation. The rooms have a minimalistic feel to them and yet have all the necessary amenities. The garden out front is nice and adds to the overall appeal of the place. Shout-out to the caretaker, Raju for getting us in touch with the bike rental person and helping us seamlessly check-in.

    Candida2020-02-02T00:00:00Z
  • A beautiful place to stay with your loved ones or family too. The best part is that serenity beach is walkable distance from here. Would recommend this stay for everyone. :)

    Lijumon2020-01-30T00:00:00Z
  • During winter, it's one of the best places you could stay in for the price we paid. Really chill and it's between white town and auroville and really close to serenity beach. Perfect location if you've rented a scooter.

    Nickson2019-12-15T00:00:00Z
  • A beautifully designed Airbnb which allows you to be a stone’s throw away from the beach. Located in-between Puducherry and Auroville it gave us easy access to all our endeavours while we stayed here. Zero disturbances, zero hassles and a 10/10 for a vacation experience.

    Arjun2019-10-29T00:00:00Z
  • Nice place to stay. Clean place and properly planned and maintained well. Close to the beach for people who are looking for surfing. Arnab was quick in communication.

    Jagan2019-06-16T00:00:00Z
  • It was a pleasant stay at Arnab's place. It is a simple yet beautiful place to be at, everything was just perfect. I loved the facilities and the best part is, it's near by serenity beach and sea food available there is amazing. Helpers were very helpful and so was Arnab. He was always available and responsive whenever we needed.

  • A particularly well located and tastefully furnished accommodation. The welcome and efficiency of Gopal are a real plus. And the caretaker is really nice. We will certainly return this accommodation to our loved ones. Hervé, Véronique and Zoé

    Hervé2020-02-25T00:00:00Z
  • I chose Kaivalyam for my senior citizen parents' Pondicherry stay and I am so glad with my choice. Extremely clean and tastefully done. Looks exactly like the images posted here. Senior citizens friendly as well. The location is best part of it with very close proximity to everything including Beach and Sunday Bazar. Prithika and her team of staff are excellent hosts. They helped us a lot during a sudden medical emergency for my mother. All in all, great stay. Highly recommended.

    Shanta2020-02-18T00:00:00Z
  • Prithika's place was beautiful and perfectly located from Pondicherry's White Town area. We loved staying here!

    Nityasya2020-02-08T00:00:00Z
  • The place was sparkling clean.. It made our whole trip so memorable. The host and manager both were sensitive to our needs. They made the whole trip execute smoothly with options of places to visit and even helping with scooty rental. They went out of the way to help the guests! Amazing!!!

    Namrata2020-02-03T00:00:00Z
  • A very good property, sparkling clean and well maintained. Location is superb and hosts are also very attentive and quick to respond.

    Ninad2020-02-02T00:00:00Z
  • We were two couples and had booked place almost 3-4 months in advance. Just two days before we changed dates and were accommodated by the host. Premises has good interiors, well equipped with all electric gadgets sparkling clean, smooth check-in check-out. Manager guided us well about restaurants and places to visit. Will surely like to visit again.

    Nitin2020-01-30T00:00:00Z
  • Nice apartment in Mission Street Pondichery. Confortable and easy to live. Gopal had been a great host and helped us with everything we needed. We stayed one month there and all the family loved it!

    The House of Blue Mangoes is a leisurely Franco-Tamil experience. The House's yellow walls and French beds blend seamlessly with its beautiful Tamil courtyard and 'thinnai'. There's plenty of open space to sit back, relax and to let time slow down. This listing is for the ensuite room 'Calanjali' which is the only room upstairs.
    Nestled in a quiet lane in Pondicherry, The House of Blue Mangoes takes inspiration from David Davidar’s book by the same name. Restored lovingly from ruins and rubble, the House is a seamless blend of classic Tamil architecture and pan-European sensibilities. The charming little 'thinnai' or sit-out at the entrance traditionally invites anyone passing by to relax and rest a while. A beautiful, open Tamil courtyard welcomes the first rays of the sun and offers the perfect spots to unwind, read a book, or simply do nothing at all. Chrome yellow walls and French beds are constant reminders of influences from across the seas. Every bit of furniture in the House is a carefully hand-picked piece of history. Our three rustic bedrooms - Kavya, Isaioli and Calanjali - are tastefully furnished with antique beds, cupboards and other things vintage. Of course, air-conditioning, geysers and comforts of a boutique hotel do exist, but they do not intrude. Still, nothing feels quite like home unless there's a friendly kitchen; so our fully-equipped cooking space lets you make your coffee and comfort foods just the way you like it at home. There are plenty of open spaces around the House, as you'll quickly discover; and if you wander across to the far end of the House, you'll be pleasantly surprised at what you chance upon - a garden spotted with tiny blue mango saplings. It is our hope that they grow up quickly to make the House of Blue Mangoes what we've always wanted it to be - a quiet place to perch under while the rest of the world goes on with its usual frenzy.
    Pondicherry's Sunday Market is a stone's throw away from the House. Good biriyani, south Indian vegetarian food and two pizzerias are all less than a kilometre away. Pothy's which houses Pondicherry's largest clothes store and supermarket is less than 0.5 kilometres away.
  • Great location!

    Tory2020-02-26T00:00:00Z
  • I would recommend everyone to choose this accommodation. Great hospitality Super clean Feel like home Value for money What else can anyone ask for!

    Karthik2020-02-18T00:00:00Z
  • We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the HOBM and will certainly stay here if we visit Pondicherry again. The property has heritage touch to it and makes you part of it's history. Gopal and Minnamma were great hosts too. They were super sweet and helpful. Prithika, you've an awesome team. Thank you for the experience.

    Prosenjit2020-02-16T00:00:00Z
  • Beautiful place! Gorgeous room, with antique furniture and extremely comfortable beds. Kind hospitality. We never wanted to leave.

    Georgia2020-02-06T00:00:00Z
  • Very relaxing place, helpful host. White town & beach at 15mins walking distance. I enjoyed my stay here.

    Nilotpal2020-02-05T00:00:00Z
  • Beautiful, homely space!

    Nandita2020-02-03T00:00:00Z
  • We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and it was very comfortable. The staff (Mr. Ganesh) was super friendly and was kind enough. All the amenities provided actually helped our first trip with our toddler a memorable one. Since this was our first trip with my 10 month girl, I was little worried whether I have made a right choice, but after we checked-in, I was sure and confident that I have made the right choice. Thank you Prithika and team for the extraordinary service :-) I will definitely recommend your place to my friends. Hope to visit The House of Blue Mangoes very soon :-)

    Dhilip Kumar2020-01-23T00:00:00Z
  • Lovely room in the Tamil district, near the Goubert Market. Walkable distance from the beach. Nice rooftop for breakfast, reading or just sit in the calm atmosphere. Surely recommend!
