Club Mahindra Puducherry Stay
Posted 14 Feb 2020 on HotelsIt was nice stay, however, check in was time taking, we needed to wait for almost 30 minutes without any valid reason.
I feel they can easily improve on it.

Happy New Year!!
I am not a Mahindra club member. I had my eyes on this property for a while.A difficult place to book through online travel agencies - its always sold out. Had booked through Expedia.
Stayed at this property with family in couple of rooms for 1 night (2nd Jan check in and 3rd Jan check out).Had opted for the half board option - dinner and breakfast buffet included in the initial booking cost.
The property is tucked away about 2.4 km away from the ECR and has the beach as it's backyard. Check in starts at 1400 and check out next day at 10 am.
Kid and wheel chair friendly property. Staff at sea shellz (the restaurant were lunch, dinner and breakfast buffets were served) and in the property are well trained and very helpful.
Facilities in the room were adequate and satisfactory.
This is a beach side resort. Unlike traditional hotels, rooms are not stacked vertically but pairs are tucked away in the privacy of dense foliage.
What can be improved:
Check in experience at front desk can be improved. Questions can be tailored to improve the check in experience.
Taste of food in general can be improved. Would have become difficult for me if I had chosen to stay longer.
At the ice cream station, provide a water bucket to dip and clear the ice cream scooper.

Thumbs High
Location is good with the private beach access though restricted after 5.30 PM.
lots of greenery inside the resort.
Recreational activity inside the resort is okay.
BF is passable not much continental stuff though
Thumbs Down
Quality of room not worth its price.
Toiletries of very poor quality
very poor condition of room flooring...can see the cracks everywhere
Resort charges additional Rs 50 for room service (just food delivery).
Couldn't notice life guard around pool area.
No internet/WIFI in the room.

Good relaxing weekend.
Posted 21 Feb 2015 on HotelsThe hotel is good if you want to relax. The rooms are clean. The service is excellent. The housekeeping subscribed to star sports channel which was not available in the room as we requested for it to watch the India v/s Pakistan world cup match . the buffet was good. room service can be improved taste wise. the lake in the property is not maintained well. The green colour water is unpleasant. It has to be maintained. except for that the property is good.

Amazing property... just need some in room upgrade
Posted 19 Dec 2014
Pros: Location, beach, Staff (service) and activities
Cons: In room amenities can be vastly improved
Location: Hotel is by the beach and if you are traveling from any crowded city... just b on the beach and enjoy the resort activities as they are really fun.
I went with my family for 3 nights. Amazing location, beautiful beach and extraordinary staff! What needs a little attention is the condition of rooms. I guess they converted it from Zest resort to regular Club Mahindra one, so it might be work in progress. I got a good room with huge balcony, view was good, but there was no proper wardrobe, dining table or other in room amenities (Microwave etc. which is really needed when you are traveling with a kid!). Having said that, I will visit again due to staff and the activities they conduct.
