Property is situated infront of the beach so called private beach but entry is not allowed after 6pm.
So If you are looking for some quiet time looking at beach post dark, it is NOT the place you should consider.
Meal(Lunch/dinner) is separately billed @1475/- Rs PER PAX.
Bar is not operational.
There is nothing which defines history meeting with future.
Overall it was good but NOT lives upto the expectations. Overpriced. In front of the beach is overrated as you can not go to the beach during summer in day time and it is closed after 6pm

The location is serene, beautiful sunrise walks on the beach, the lovely property with calming architecture.
The food is below average for such a wonderful property. I remember ordering cheesecake and all I got was mousse. The chinese noodles, the beef skewer all were not up to the mark. Their breakfast buffet has a wide spread and is passable. Their danishes are dry.

Excellent resort grounds. Loved the green environment. Cleaning staff very professional, kind and did a great job. Restaurant is decent. Loved the pool.
Internet WiFi connection in my room didn't work. 1 bar or nothing. You need to check signal strength. Room decent, but but worn and old. The door handles and locks should be replaced. All staff was nice apart from the check in lady who was very unprofessional. No welcome, scolding at her colleagues, paperwork was messy. She didn't let me know what was going on or the amenities. The young lady that walked us to the room was great. This senior staff member needs a hospitality training.

Le Pondy has a private beach well maintained less crowded, and fantastic place to spend some family time. Whether you would like the sunrise or golden hours during the sunset, perfect place to be.
Le Pondy location and private beach is fantastic the pool within the villas are fantastic, but there is a charm missing. The whole property aesthetics can be planned in a different way. It is a very good property and I recommend this to any of my friend. But the traveler experience is solely placed on the beach access. So this is the reason it felt a little overpriced. Otherwise must visit.

Liked the ambience and food
It was very untidy, found a tissue in my room's closet, bathroom door and room door locks are broken, swimming pool was very very poor condition... Not clean and caused me skin damage due to so much of chlorine... Except complementary breakfast nothing was worth for paying 11k

Basically nothing.
We were heavily overcharged for Taxi booked through hotel despite getting confirmation of rates before booking.
We requested for fresh bath towels and we got used spa towels which were smelling of oil.
The room lock system was pathetic.We had to take out the keys from key power socket to lock unlock the door even from the inside.
So everytime we order anything in room ,the lights went out first and then we had to open the door blinded with no lights.
We went for breakfast at 7 30 am in the morning after a nice beach walk.İ took a bowl of cereals and cold milk and found literally 3 insects in the chocos bowl.
The location of property is far from main good locations like White town and Auroville.(20 km ) and property is old and highly overpriced.
We got our rooms @Rs 8000/night /room.
İ would not recommend anyone to stay at this property if they don't want to spoil their vacation.
İnfact İ expect a full refund for the pathetic experience we had to go through.

Rooms are very old not maintained. Dirty towels. Bandicoot rats outside the room. Staffs doesn’t know how to answer the guest. Hospitality at zero. BF was worst. You spend nearly about 9000 just for the location. On the whole the property have lost its charm except for the beach and architecture.
Will not recommend and will not go again. I went for spending my bday it was totally a disaster.
