Grande Bay Resort and Spa Mamallapuram

We would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to Grand Bay Resort for hosting our team outing last week, where around 150 of our team members participated. The resort’s serene ambiance, well-maintained facilities, and the warm hospitality from your entire staff made the day truly memorable for everyone. A special thanks to Mr. Raja, the event manager, for his exceptional planning and execution of engaging team bonding activities throughout the day. His energy and thoughtful coordination ensured that every team member was involved, and we all thoroughly enjoyed the activities. We would also like to convey our special thanks to Mr. Seenuvasan for his excellent support in organizing the food arrangements, ensuring that the dining experience was seamless and enjoyable for our entire team. Overall, it was a refreshing and energizing experience, and we look forward to collaborating again for future team events. Thank you once again for making our team outing a success.

It was a beautiful experience. Definitely a property that's light on your pockets compared to the places nearby. It's a small resort but the facilities are really good. 1. They provide free shuttle service to the beach which is nearby. 2. The beach has a lawn, a few hammocks and the best part is they have a small water play in the side. 3. The pool is very clean Every penny was worth. Highly recommend

We recently hosted a corporate event here and had a wonderful experience. The staff took great care of us, and everything was well-organized from start to finish. The food was delicious and received a lot of compliments. A special shoutout to Raja, our emcee, who did a fantastic job keeping the event engaging and lively. Highly recommend this venue for corporate events!

A very nice hotel with a huge menu, lovely food and a fabulous pool. The room by the pool was very comfortable and spotlessly clean, although it was a little "tired around the edges". The staff were superb. The grounds were just big enough to have a wander around to watch the squirrels and birds. The beach is a 5 minute walk away. The hotelhas an annexe nearer the beach and although we didn't go there, you walk past on the way to thye beach. Our only minor gripe is that the public pat you take to the beach and the annexe is full of rubbish, as is most of India, but it wouldn't take a lot to clear it up.

The property is well made and well organized. The staff very friendly and helpful. The kitchen is both buffet and a la carte and it's really very good. The breakfast is good and very varied. At the moment the influx of Western tourists is almost nothing and therefore the menu is typically Indian. Food is excellent. There are afternoon activities and tea snacks. There is also a SPA with good value for money and an equipped gym. The rooms are all in front of the pool and with a private garden at the back (too bad that given the amount of insects and the absence of mosquito nets is not usable). The rooms are very large but a bit crumbling. The shower is big, but very little water comes out. Although the bathroom is large, there is little room for the beauty case. The fridgebar (empty) is very noisy, we turned it off the first night and the next morning everything was flooded (because it had probably never been defrosted). The air conditioning cannot be adjusted, it is too cold and it is too hot. Fortunately, above the bed is the fan. Good wifi. The kindness of the staff and the excellence of the food, however, compensates for the defects of the room and therefore it is a recommended hotel!

Very smart reception area...but very corporate, we could have been anywhere...we were sorry it didn't reflect Indian culture. Having said that, it is a lovely hotel. Good size rooms. We had a great first floor balcony overlooking the garden. Flooring in room has seen better days and the doors would benefit from a repaint. Real pluses at this hotel are:- Huge and beautiful swimming pool Private beach Complimentary afternoon tea Great choice at breakfast Very good spa treatments available Really lovely staff - so friendly and helpful
