Had an amazing stay at this beautiful property. Very hospitable and courteous staff. Special thank you to Pinki for being extremely helpful. Would love to visit again.

Excellent stay. Warm welcome, courteous staff. Pinky was a very good hostess and helped us with all our meals etc . Beautiful surroundings . Must visit for all.

Pinky served with so good hospitality I am impressed as exclusively her behavior towards customers is with all concern n love she speaks so politely one feels at home thanks for everything

What an amazing hotel and restaurant . Pinky really looked after us in the restaurant, especially choosing meals suitable for our English taste. The rooms and swimming pool, just the best. Thank you to all the staff at La Pondy

We had a wonderful tme Le Pondy. The ambience and hospitality was something to remember. The staff were very warm and welcoming. Pinky, the head Captain was very polite and attentive. She made sure we were fed with sumptous food. Le Pondy was a lovely place to relax. We will definiely come back for a longer stay. Vicky Sundaram Australia

Thank you very much for a pleasant and comfortable stay here with especially mention about your staff member Miss PINKY Who took great care and efforts regarding our meals and needs during every meal at the restaurant throughout We would request you to please enter our deep appreciation for her service In your records Thank you Ms Asha Nayegandhi Ms Barbara Dobson Ms Tara Patel

It's a nice place,very calm and serene. Restaurant staff..Pinky nicely took care of us while dining. It's a good and enjoyable staying.

Went to Le Pondy and Gogoi Pinki took so much care of as. We had lunch, checked in after a very comfortable nice room. Buffet dinner with Kareoke in the beautiful garden.

The location was chosen for a destination wedding for my daughter. It is well placed not too close and not too far from the city. The ambience is perfect, slight chillness in the air mixed with the sea breeze over a fantastic good size well maintained lawn, beautiful condition to have an outdoor wedding be it day or night. Rooms there were 65 rooms operational at the time of the wedding. This was more than sufficient for our guests. The rooms were spacious clean with all amenities. The cost is perfect matched our budget. Very quiet during the night. The room service was perfect, they responded to our request with polite and quickly

We are pleased to share our highly positive experience with Le Pondy Beach Resort, which served as the venue for a three-day wedding celebration planned and executed by Haritham Events. The property stands out for its exceptional infrastructure, picturesque beachfront setting, and well-maintained facilities, making it an outstanding destination for premium wedding events and large-scale celebrations. The overall ambience of the resort significantly enhanced the grandeur and elegance of the occasion. The guest coordination services provided by the resort were exemplary. The support staff demonstrated remarkable professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to operational details, contributing greatly to the smooth execution of multiple wedding functions. We would like to place on record our special appreciation for Mr. Bala and Mr. Bibin, whose exceptional cooperation and coordination were instrumental in enabling Haritham Events to successfully plan and execute the wedding across three full days. Their proactive approach, flexibility, and commitment to service excellence were invaluable in ensuring that all event requirements were met efficiently. We extend our sincere gratitude to the management and entire team of Le Pondy Beach Resort for their outstanding hospitality and operational support. We strongly recommend the resort as a premier venue for weddings and high-profile celebrations.️

Le Pondy is located on outskirts of Pondicherry and guests have access to their provivate beach. Its a nice, quiet property and you wont feel like going out for anything. This is the place if you want to spend relaxed time. We had a sea view room with a seperate Sit out which was amazing. Rooms were clean with all amenities. Since we went during eak season room rates were slighly higher, but I would still say it was value for money spent. Resturant serves delicious food and special mention of Bala Murugan (F&B Manager) who took special care of our taste and as a special gesture arranged a cake and nice decor for Bday celebration. Overall a very good experience and I would definitely recommend this property.

I recently stayed at LePondy Resort and had an amazing time. The room was really comfy and well maintained. The food was delicious. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

Really nice place to stay and good quality foods ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 My Special thanks to Mr.Bibin John 👌👌the great coordination from him ❤️

We had an amazing time celebrating our first anniversary at Le Pondy in Pondicherry. We traveled in comfort, and the resort matched our expectations perfectly. We arranged a special candlelight dinner setup for our celebration, which cost around 4,000 rupees, and it was absolutely worth it. Just a heads-up: there may be additional charges, so it’s best to confirm all the details in advance. Although we didn’t get the villa we wanted, we thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance and the service. Mr. Bala in the restaurant was incredibly helpful and made our experience even more memorable. Overall, the stay was delightful, and I highly recommend Le Pondy for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

All are good .....Room ambience are nice......very good location... enjoyed...kids are very happy...............

We had hosted a family get-together day event today at Le Pondy for 40 members & it turned out to be such a memorable day for our whole family.. I need to call out the professionalism from the team especially I have been in touch with Balamurugan (F&B mgr) who assisted me with all the booking including the banquet hall, food menu for the lunch we hosted today...Balamurugan is a great asset to the Le Pondy management team - he was so easy to co ordinate, communicate all details and he worked in good cohesiveness with his entire team so well.. We didnt face any glitch today.. All members liked the food presented today especially the Mutton Biryani and Chicken Chettinad gravy to name a few.. The banquet hall was so nice with perfect lighting, comfortable seating and the audio/mic were all working seamlessly for the events we planned.. Overall, LePondy environment inside the resort was well maintained and plush with good natural touch in the entire property. I would defintely recommend Le Pondy to anyone who wishes to host their family functions and get-together.. The resort, staff & food all together was top notch..!!

Absolutely disgraceful experience with Le Pondy Resort. This resort has blatantly cheated us. We specifically booked and paid for sea-facing rooms, yet our Indian guests were deliberately pushed into ground-floor rooms opening into a lawn with ZERO sea view. This is nothing short of deception. What’s even more shameful is the clear and unacceptable discrimination—all the proper first-floor sea-facing rooms were conveniently allotted to foreigners, while Indian guests were treated as second-class customers. This kind of biased and unethical behavior is intolerable. Le Pondy Resort clearly does not respect Indian travelers or travel professionals. Their false promises, unfair room allocation, and discriminatory practices expose their true standards. Indian travelers should seriously boycott this resort. If you value honesty, dignity, and fair treatment, stay far away from Le Pondy Resort. Totally unprofessional, misleading, and unacceptable.

You All did such good job and I cannot Thank you BOTH enough for such a Wonderful Service . The Venue, DECOR , FOOD , Event Management were done so nicely and All the STAFF were so kind , helpful and provided such a great Service without any hesitation and took good care of even the Elders who needed a lot of support.

Excellent stay, very good staff, food and over all experience . Amazing rooms and its ambiance. Beautiful location and best and neat beach

We had a great experience. The staff is very sweet. Great hospitality. Always very pleasant stay. Pinky, Monica & Johnsy is very good in serving and have a great hospitality

Housekeeping is bad, food sucks big time - if they cant make decent sambhar. and chapati, something is wrong The approach road is pathetic, and its been years - really disappointing stay

experience was fine, food was good, the beach was good, but closed down too early. room service was nice, staff was good, but they were curt about check out times, felt like we were being kicked out. phone call at 9:30 to tell us to leave by 11

It was a soothing experience visiting this resort. The amenities are truly cherished. Overall it was delightful experience.

Our visit to Le Pondy was truly refreshing. The calm surroundings, pleasant hospitality, and peaceful environment made the staff excursion enjoyable and memorable. A perfect break from routine.

Nice experience enjoyed a lot.The beach front location is excellent and very scenic. The resort has a calm, spacious, and green atmosphere, perfect for relaxing. Staff members were polite, helpful, and courteous. The swimming pool and open areas are well suited for families and couple.

We had a wonderful time in Le Pondy. We went to celebrate one of our friend’s 50th birthday. We had an amazing time in the resort. We stayed for 2 days in the presidential suite. We booked 3 rooms . Front office Deva and the F&B Bipin made our stay so special and they arranged a beautiful dinner party for us by the pool and the food was amazing as we requested for a vegan special.. each and every dish was so delicious.. thanks again to Bipin as he took extra care to prepare all the dishes we requested and make the evening an unforgettable experience with all the decorations and lighting . We will definitely recommend the resort to our friends and family 👍

It was a very nice experiences . Very nice and friend Lou staffing and very nice good as well i would recommend this place to everyone

Excellent place to stay. Has a private beach space behind the resort itself. Great food and pool facilities. Room is also extremely good and spacious

We enjoyed our stay at the Le Pondy resort. But there were a few complaints. Few door latches were not working specifically in the pool villa. The pools were dirty with many insects and waste floating.

The location was peacefull and calm and the atmosphere was also not bad. The rooms were good but they Need to be mainained. The service according to me should be quick. And there were a lot of insects which should be taken care of. The bathroom should be cleaned well. The pool was very bad as there was a lot of chlorine in it and there were a lot of dead insects in it. It should be cleaned as there r a lot of kids in the place. But i rly enjoyed my time here Will come again.....

Nice experience and good service. We really liked our stay. Ambience and beach view is good and the staff are courteous. An exclusive kids play area closed one can be launched and .ore kids rides can be added to the existing one.

Everything was perfect, service was very friendly and helpfull The room was clean, the surroundings Were beautiful Delicious food

It was a wonderful staycation in lepondy. Well maintained property and delicious food. Staffs are very cooperative.overall loved the stay.

Super facilities best for families calm and supportive staff. Beach is right in front of your resort. We have used other services like spa and fitness all are well managed.

It's a pleasent stay at LEPONDY with my family.. excellent service by pinki at the restaurant.. thank you so much LEPONDY for wonderful hospitality..

It’s a good resort with direct beach access. Overall property is clean and tidy with well maintained lawns. The artificial lagoon needs some maintenance as the water is moldy. The rooms are spacious with nice views. The food is decent. Breakfast spread is fair enough. The check-in and check-out experience was not very smooth. The requests which are put well in advance are not entertained and not taken care of. Pool is very nice, clean and well maintained. Restaurant staff and housekeeping staff are very hardworking. Resort is far from main city so if you are expecting easy access to prime city locations like white-town and promenade then this resort is not advisable. If you want a good family time with beach access and nice pool, then this is a perfect place to stay. Overall a good place to stay in Pondicherry.

The hotel’s location is perfect, offering beautiful beach-facing views. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable, and the food quality was outstanding. A special mention to Ms. Pinky from the restaurant team for her exceptional hospitality and attention to guests — she truly made our experience memorable. The overall atmosphere was pleasant, and all the staff were courteous and helpful. Highly recommended!

My wife and I stayed at the Le Pondy for two nights to celebrate my wife’s birthday. The resort is lovely, nicely landscaped, right on the beach which is quite clean and quite private. The food at the resort is outstanding especially the local non vegetarian fare. The staff is courteous and efficient. Special mention to Pinki Gogoi at the restaurant and Densingh at the bar. They went out of their way to make our stay memorable. The only negative could be the location - it is 20-30mins from the White town or French quarters where all the restaurants and cafes are. However, this is still better than staying at any of the heritage places in White town as it gets very busy and noisy with a lot of local and touristy traffic there. We enjoyed the quiet and peace of Le Pondy and shuttled into White town for a couple of meals to get the best of both worlds.

Very poor room dining service. Smelly rooms even sea view room is smelly, basic and bad. Washroom is pathetic. Discourteous in room dining staff. No resort activities. Only restuarent staff is good. It is basically good for beach. Way to resort is muddy and bad. Lot of traffic right in front of resort. No driver dormitory. I am highly unsatisfied with my stay. Will never recommend or visit again.

The property is stunning but the front office staff was rude and the duty manager Mr. Abraham was physically violent and threatening. In 30 years of travelling for business and work this has never happened to me. I am still shaking and had to call chase preferred to move to me to a different hotel. Stay away from this property if you are an American. I wrote a complaint for the GM Vipin Das who’s on vacation now. I am speaking to the American consulate in Chennai and filing a police complaint. Bad bad bad property. Stay away

We stayed in LEPONDY for 3 nights with family we enjoyed a lot good property with great service by pinki thank you pinki for your amazing service we will recommend to our friends and family would love to visit again

Le Pondy is about 30 minutes south of Pondicherry and not easy to travel to or from the city without a car or taxi - it is in an isolated resort area next to a fishermen's village on the beach. If you're looking for a calm resort with great food and service, this is your place. The rooms are very nicely designed with front and back verandas, some with private pool. Bathrooms are luxe with walk in rain showers. The resort villas are in traditional South Indian style with thatched roofs and a long fish pond with lilies runs along the length of the resort. The grounds are well kept inside the resort. The restaurant food is excellent and the thrice daily buffet provides great value, although the repetitive muzak is rather off-putting. The swimming pool is certainly long but can get busy with families at times - in the morning and evening (<7pm) are quieter. The private beach is pleasant but the sea is dangerous for swimming because of the invisible shelf and undertow, there is a lifeguard on duty. Beyond the boundaries of the private beach, the sand is littered with garbage so a long walk is impractical and there was a never-ending stream of autogyro flights while I was there. The spa offers two types of massages - Indian Ayurvedic and "Hoshi", staffed by two separate teams. Hoshi offers Swedish, deep tissue and Balinese and is definitely the better choice if you know your preferences. Book ahead, appointments are only between 10am and 4pm and closed on Wednesdays. The staff are universally professional, courteous and helpful, especially if you're planning a sightseeing trip. Transfers are also available from Chennai airport. There is a well stocked boutique, where you can purchase handicrafts as well as sandals to wear on the beach.

Best resort in Pondicherry with amazing staff, room and food. Highly recommended for family. Had great time around property . Well maintained. Has good spa as well.

Beautiful property. Excellent service by the hotel staff. Very friendly and accommodating for kids. Special thanks to Pinky (their dining staff) for providing baby food for my toddler. Loved my stay here.

We had a great experience along with a great ambience and the way rooms are maintained along with cleanliness is something to be praised about. There are two people who always had a smile when they served food and drinks (Mr. Dinesh and Ms Jhansi). Dinesh went out of his way to fix a dish which we complained was not good. He replaced the dish with another one which was very thoughtful. The front office girl Ms Akila was friendly and helpful too. Ayurvedic massage was bad( not recommended) The spa ladies did a good job.

hopeless, not respecting the booking done through booking.com and disconnecting the phone. so irritating. had the confirmation number from booking.com and it was booked in advance now they say not reflecting in their system

It was a great stay. We enjoyed a lot. Food can be little more better. Other that, every thing was very good. Had a wonderful experience. A must try resort.

A great hotel and a fantastic experience along with the family .. The suites are spacious and well kept. Large swimming pool and access to beach is a plus .. under GM Mr Vipin there’s a great level of hospitality that’s evident . Sanjib at the all day stood out from customising to ensuring the best of attention .. kudos ! Spa can have more flexible timings ..

My stay was amazing here at Le ponde and special thanks to Pinky Gogoi who made it so memorable with her amazing hospitality...Thankyou Pinky...you are an asset to Le pondy and customer experience is exemplary ......Thankyou again..

Just Awesome service.... Special Thanks to Mr.Bala Brother, who did excellent service and we love Le Pondy.. Will visit again....

My family went to stay in LePondy beach resort from 19th to 22nd. It is a very beautiful and picturesque resort. It is very well maintained with all amenities and an ideal place to chill out for a few days. The staff is very courteous and polite. Especially, i want to mention about Pinki and Sanjib who were wonderful, and they went above and beyond to ensure that our stay in Lepondy was pleasant and comfortable in every way.

We did our sons birthday party the arrangements made by the f&b team was very excellent especially the lunch buffet was fantastic and all the guests was well satisfied

Le Pondy is a serene and beautiful resort, perfectly nestled between the sea and backwaters. The villas are spacious, the surroundings are peaceful, and the private beach adds a special charm. A big thanks to Pinky and Sanjeev Gohain for being such warm and gracious hosts, they made our stay truly memorable. Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway!

Superb service given. Staff was very caring and listening to requests in terms of food. We eat completely non spicy, they understood the requirement and accordingly served us as per the given requirement. Made us feel very comfortable.

Aashiqui and Satish from housekeeping did very well and we were very satisfied with the stay, food was good and beach view was nice

Very nice stay and pleasant place with very beautiful ambience.Good amenities.warm welcome.food is very good.swimming pool is neat and clean.

Very good experience , had good time with the corporate group . Decent food and amenities . Just a suggestion , the place can be modernized to 3 or 4 star for sure

Our experience at the resort was made truly memorable thanks to the incredible efforts of the Food & Beverages Manager, Mr. Bibin John. From the moment we arrived, it was evident that every detail of the dining experience was meticulously curated under their expert supervision. Beyond the food, Bibin ensured that the overall dining atmosphere—from staff coordination to timely service. Truly a gem of a professional.

We recently stayed at Le Pondy Beach Resort in Pondicherry for a very special occasion — a college reunion after 9 years. Twenty-four of us, bound by old memories and deep friendships, came together from across the country and even overseas to reconnect. What we found at Le Pondy was not just a resort — it was the perfect canvas on which our shared stories, laughter, and nostalgia could unfold. From the moment we entered the property, there was a sense of calm and space that wrapped around us. The resort’s charming architecture, sprawling lawns, and proximity to the sea offered a rare mix of privacy and openness — exactly what a reunion of this nature required. Though Le Pondy may not have lavish plunge pools or sea-facing villas, its authentic coastal charm, peaceful ambience, and seamless hospitality created something far more valuable: comfort without pretense. Our rooms were simple yet elegant — well-maintained, spotlessly clean, and equipped with all the essentials. We weren’t looking for luxury; we were looking for warmth, and that’s what we received in abundance. The private swimming pool near the restaurant and the beach was a beautiful gathering spot for our group — we shared stories under the shade, clicked dozens of photos, and spent hours simply soaking in each other's presence. One of the most memorable aspects of our stay was the culinary experience. The dosa with fresh coconut chutney each morning was a treat, and the Puttu, a traditional South Indian delicacy, was served hot and soft — a heartfelt nod to local flavours that made our breakfasts feel nostalgic and rooted. The kitchen staff was kind, and they managed to serve our large group with patience and efficiency. The staff at Le Pondy deserve special appreciation. Handling 24 guests is no easy task, but they did so with grace and quiet dedication. Whether it was helping us coordinate room arrangements or making sure our dining area was ready, they were consistently polite, helpful, and responsive. A Gentle but Important Suggestion: We would like to respectfully share a heartfelt request with the resort management — one that is very important to us. One of our dearest friends in the group has a medical condition that makes stair-climbing difficult. During our stay, we realized that there are no ramps or railings available to access key areas like the banquet hall or the first-floor rooms in the villas. She had to navigate stairs with great effort and discomfort. For senior citizens or anyone with mobility issues, reaching certain parts of the property was not easy. Even a few simple ramps, hand railings, or accessible pathways could make a world of difference. We truly hope the resort considers adding these — not just for our friend, but for many future guests who would benefit from thoughtful accessibility. Small Safety Note: We would also like to point out that one of our friends had a minor fall near the banquet hall entrance, close to the restaurant. There’s a small curve or drop in the flooring that isn’t very visible — especially in dim light. Thankfully she was not seriously hurt, but placing visual markers or anti-slip indicators in that area could help avoid future mishaps. Final Reflection: Reunions like these are rare and precious. Le Pondy didn’t just host us — it became part of our memory. The gentle breeze, the quiet sunrise walks, the poolside laughter, the shared breakfasts — these moments are now etched into our hearts. We thank the staff particularly the resort manager Mr.Bala Murugan, Mr.Bibin and Mr.Sukumar sincerely for their support and hospitality. We hope to return again — and we truly hope that next time, everyone in our group, regardless of age or mobility, will be able to move around freely and safely. Thank you, Le Pondy, for giving us a home for our reunion. With just a few thoughtful upgrades, this resort can become even more inclusive and welcoming. Highly recommended — from our hearts to yours.

The place and the hospitality is very good. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The service is good. Overall experience was great

The place is great and the service in the restaurant is good. But otherwise the front desk staff desperately need improvement. I'm still in the resort, and everytime is a struggle to make them understand what i want. For now, I'm trying to return the call to make them clean my room, but 4 phone calls later still the message hasn't been delivered. The check in was a problem as well. The pool had a lot of bugs and my son was bitten badly during swimming. Good place, but the front desk staff needs to be trained better on communication.

Very silent ambience and very nice breakfast and service. The stay was very close to sea and the beach is very clean.it was nice and naturistic environment for kids and the pool was clean .

We recently stayed at Le Pondy, and it was truly a memorable experience. The property is stunning, with its serene backwaters, clean beach, and beautifully maintained surroundings. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, offering both luxury and warmth. What stood out the most was the hospitality — the staff were courteous, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. The food was delicious with a wide variety to choose from, and we enjoyed every meal. Le Pondy is the perfect getaway for relaxation and rejuvenation. We’re already looking forward to our next visit! Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so special. 🙏

Had an amazing time at Le Pondy with my office colleagues! The resort offers a perfect mix of luxury and nature, with stunning views of both the beach and backwaters. Rooms were spacious, the private beach was peaceful, and the staff was extremely courteous. We enjoyed the food, pool, and evening activities that made our team bonding even more special. A serene and well-maintained property that's ideal for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommended for groups, families, or anyone looking to unwind in a beautiful setting. Would love to visit again!

This property is excellent. One can relax here while enjoying the food, which is awesome, in the beautiful ambience. Rooms are big enough and the adjoining balcony gives a feel of home. The staff is very affectionate and cooperative. We interacted with most of the staff and among these Ms. Pinky Gogoi in the dinning area is very cordial and helpful. I have forgotten other names.

Everything was outrightly great ryt from comfy stays with private pools to a good variety of food in buffet,the swimming pool they claim as olympic size pool is actually not olympic size...siht anyways otherwise it's a really good stay

We had a pleasant stay at the resort. The staff was courteous and helpful. The pool was well maintained and the breakfast had a decent spread. Overall a joyful experience.

Overall stay was good. The private pool is too good for kids to enjoy. Evening rain and private beach is very clean. Breakfast is very delicious. Would recommend for a short drive from chennai and one day out for a different mood. Overall pleasant experience.

My stay at Le Pondy was highly satisfactory. The check-in process, facilitated through Cleartrip, was seamless, with prompt luggage transfer and buggy service to the lobby. The property's traditional architecture and wooden interiors created a charming ambiance. Our spacious first-floor room featured a comfortable sitting area and a private balcony. The extensive lawn provided ample space for children's play, complemented by a well-maintained swimming pool suitable for all ages. Direct access to the pristine Sandunes beach was a significant advantage. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options, including idli, dosa (live counter), appam, parathas, fresh fruits, and juices. However, there are areas for improvement. The unpaved access road to the property and Sandunes beach requires attention. Furthermore, while the overall experience was positive, the food quality, particularly dinner, did not meet expectations given the price point. The à la carte chicken kadai, in particular, was subpar, with insufficient, undercooked chicken pieces. In summary, despite the slightly overpriced dining experience, the exceptional accommodations, service, and amenities, including the pool, compensated for this shortcoming, resulting in a largely positive stay.

The stay was very good with very delicious breakfast, especially with the greenery well maintained property and plush green garden with amazing staffs. Activities in the property are great with buggy services as well. Will sure come again with family also

The resort was beautiful in terms of ambience and the room was excellent. Lovely atmosphere. The pool was great too and it has its own private beach. Although there were certain things that could have been better like the WiFi and yhe food was pretty average. We would visit again as it was a nice experience.

We always stay here for over 6 to 7 years we always prefer staying here it's always a very amazing experience, can spend and enjoy the private pools and beach with the family, Rooms were clean and neat the food was also good overall it was an excellent time spent with my family

The hotel is great, and the rooms are also well appointed. Polite and courteous staff and prompt service. Conveniently located near the beach. There are indoor games for the kids and a big swimming pool which is well maintained. Highly recommended !

It was a comfortable stay. Sea view room is the best one! Great views with beach nearby. 100 percent recommended. Rooms were clean, property has lot of options for activities and chilling out. Garden area in morning was our favourite. Thanks

Very good place and good service. Value for money. Beach is close by and nice for morning walks. The ambiance is excellent. Food is also good. The staff are cordial. Good place for short duration stay. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, good

Went to India on Business, came to this resort for the weekend with the work team. Had a great time, grounds were clean, lots of open grass great pool and private beach access. Bar was empty but well equipped, restaurant to pool which was nice. live band Saturday night. Lots of families, great environment for kids, looking to bring my family next trip, let them stay here while I spend the week in Chennai.

Food and Pool were great! Beautiful resort with stunning views, friendly staff, and excellent amenities. Perfect for a relaxing getaway. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Would definitely visit again! I would recommend this resort for my friends

Nice experience many spots for pictures to take kids were enjoyed comfort stay for everyone felt happy to choose le Pondy some delay in dinner I request you to note that overall good suits to family couples kids even for old age couples ☺️😊😇

The property is really well maintained and kept clean. Staff is really warm and welcoming. Good spread provided in breakfast. Private access to beach and swimming pool is big and well maintained. A nice stay with friends and family. Will suggest this option to all visiting families.

Well experienced and good welcome by the staff. We enjoyed the day well. Clean and green environment. Thank you for your lovely arrangements. We enjoyed the pool and private beach and well accommodate room and ventilation. Good experience.

Very warm service, the entire resort is set in a colonial setting making it an unique experience. The food is good too and the best part is the quick access to the beautiful beach! Thankyou to all staff for making this stay a memorable one. Kids enjoyed too

Very nice ambience .. I liked it so much.. food was really tasty and staffs were helping and very good…. Overall it’s was great experience. Highly recommended for family stay and official trips and outings. Sea facing rooms are a great recommendation apart from one with private pool. Do try the local delicacies at the Restraurent.

Enjoyed the stay 😁 staff were friendly.....the menu had lots of cuisine and all the food were very much delicious. Stayed in beach view part where we were albe to enjoy sunrise and sunset views.... This is a very beautiful place to for a trip....

Verdict: Not worth a five-star property. At best, a three-star property. Did not enjoy the stay. It was not a relaxing stay since you constantly end up giving same instructions multiple times and still the Resort ends up doing things the wrong way. Pros: 1. Stunning Location: Right next to Paradise Beach. 2. Beautiful Architecture: Resort, restaurant, and rooms are well-designed. Cons: 1. Private Beach: No facilities, no safety measures, and no access to Paradise Beach sand dunes. 2. Not Kid-Friendly: Restaurant unable to prepare baby food, play area in scorching heat, and shaded play area requires extra fee. Be prepared to pay extra for baby food. 3. Repetitive Breakfast: Limited options and same menu every day. 4. Language Barrier: Staff struggles to understand simple English instructions. 5. Unaccommodating Staff: Not friendly or helpful. Does not give a pleasing sense of stay 6. The resort looks serene but does not have enough lights in the night. This becomes challenging to roam around in the Resort in the night. 7. The resort is located in extreme corner of Pondicherry. So difficult to access other tourist destinations like White Town and Auroville.

The overall ambiance of the resort was amazing, offering a perfect blend of luxury and tranquility. A wide variety of delicious dishes were available for the complimentary breakfast, catering to different tastes. The staff were exceptionally courteous and supportive, ensuring a comfortable and hassle-free stay. The resort’s well-maintained facilities, beautiful beach access, and serene surroundings made our experience even more delightful. We had a truly memorable stay at Le Pondy Beach Resort and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

Very amazing property.. beautiful greenery. Helpful staffs.. I had Frieda stay here earlier .. but with time Upgrading and updating becomes important. we stayed at the presidential pool villa. And shifted next day to premium room. toiletries needs change .very substandard. Toilet and shower flooring very dirty as in old and very dirty . Toilet seats yellow.. Very old and underfurnished rooms. Do not look at the curtains , they are from an old house like 20 years old. Very very basic breakfast.. I can appreciate the staffs as prompt and helpful.! Looked like very young trainees .. ready to run for everything.! Breakfast: pls improve and improvise. No one eats aloo paratha with green peas gravy🫣 Few regional dishes like pongal rice .. upma in South Indian style wud be a good idea. Spread of fruits is important not basic watermelon and pineapple as only available. Healthy ideas of buttermilk.. variations in dosas.. millets and sprouts.. These are the need of the time.

Good resort built in traditional way. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. A river/ lake on one side and sea on another adds to the scenic beauty. The resort is well maintained. The staff are courteous and helpful.
