Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay

We booked a 3 night stay at the resort. The room amenities were good. The light switches took some getting used to. Its not the usual on/off buttons for each light that we are used to at home. Some explanation during room check-in would have been helpful. The swimming pool is adequate, nowhere near as big as the one in mahabalipuram. The dining hall got crowded during breakfast. I could visibly see guests getting frustrated for having to stand and wait for their turn to grab a seat. They should look for ways to increase seating capacity. The breakfast itself was good esp. The continental side of things. I found the south indian food too spicy for my taste. The resort is within 500m walking distance to ed-en beach, which is one of the cleanest beaches you will find in pondi. Its not a private beach though, but it doesn't get too crowded either. We tried the great kebab restaurant for lunch. The service was exceptional. We requested them to lower down the spiciness of the food. They did their best to accommodate. Except for the pane-er starter, the other ones were average. I would have liked a mushroom based starter. Main course was good, loved the dals that were served. I felt the desserts could have had more variety / options. The restaurant allowed me to use a 50% discount coupon from swiggy dineout. During my stay, the tata sky connection stopped working. When they couldn't fix it, they offered me a change in room, a gesture that i appreciated, although i didn't avail it. While i was having my lunch at the resort, the manager informed me that the issue was rectified. Appreciate the sincerity here. One issue that constantly kept rearing its ugly head throughout my stay was the Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay policy of providing only 2 towels in the bathroom, even though we were 3 adults staying in one room. Everyday, we had to inform housekeeping to bring an extra towel. Despite multiple requests to stock up 3 towels each time the room was cleaned, we were always short of one towel. Overall, i found the resort to be adequate. Hospitality and personal touch was lacking in the housekeeping department.

The Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay experience was very nice. We had a hickup post checkout that the phone wasn’t working and the repair person got in without our permission. We highlighted that and room was changed. The staff was really courteous and very warm. This is an amazing property and you should really go big on promotions. A few names who made the stay memorable. 1. Sandeep srivastava - he was very kind. 2. The housekeeping supervisor, i do not recall the name but he got everything done with a smile. 3. The attendant in tgkf sudipta, he was amazing and was key in making the dining experience memorable. 4. Chef siva from tgkf, who’s lal maas is the best i have ever had and made it sure he knows that. 5. You have an amazing gardening and housekeeping staff. A few things which could make the resort top notch 1. The bathrooms/wcs in the room category could have a latch so that the wardrobe and basin could be used by kids. 2. A better pest control would be nice 3. It’s a good thing that Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay uses recycled water at the gardens however it leaves a very bad odour while the watering process continues. 4. Sandeep offered us a nice deal for the boat experience however we opted to celebrate our anniversary at tgkf, i had requested for a small decor and i was ok to pay for that, i should made it clear so when i reached the table it was decorated with a few flowers from the Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay garden. For me it was a little let down. But like i said i could have been a little clearer in my expectations. 5. The mosquitoes made it almost impossible to stay at the pool post 6pm so anything that can be done to curb that. 6. You have such beautiful beach next you but the access to the beach was very dirty. I know it’s not your property but some investment there would make the experience top class. Some tie up with existing facilities at the beach would definitely take the experience to next level.

This has been one of our best trips and all thanks to the radisson resort pondy team. The hospitality and the service was top notch. All the staff starting from the reception desk to the duty managers to the housekeeping, servers- gopi and sudip, laundry person - saravanan, all of them were very cooperative and welcoming. Whenever any request came to them, staff were very accommodating and will try to adhere to your requirements and make you feel like home. They have two restaurants- bay bistro which is multi cuisine and the great indian kebab factory which is mainly serving lucknow cuisine. Every item is lip smacking and they tend to go above and beyond with their effort. Chefs are really good and they know what they are doing. We had one of the best biriyani at bay bistro. They have an exquisite array of dishes in their sun-day brunch. The resort has a high tea facility daily with many options. They also have a lot of fun activities everyday. Location- it is bit far from main pondy but if someone is looking for peace and serene environment, this would be the ideal place to stay overlooking the lagoons and the beach nearby.

I recently stayed at the radisson resort pondicherry bay with a group of friends and had an exceptional experience. We booked two different rooms that were spacious, well-appointed, and perfect for our group. The private beach access was a highlight, allowing us to enjoy peaceful, crowd-free walks along the shore. The resort's ambience was lovely, and everything was impeccably clean. The complimentary breakfast was delightful, with a wide variety of options catering to different tastes. What stood out the most was the staff's friendliness and attentiveness. Special thanks to praveen, who made our stay a fun experience with water zumba during the pool party. Additionally, chinar, murli, somita, and vijay were incredibly helpful and ensured all our needs were met promptly, making us feel truly welcome. Overall, the resort provided a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and convenience, making our stay memorable and relaxing. Highly recommended for a girl gang looking to unwind and enjoy a great time together!

The resort is tucked in a lagoon type area between pondy and cuddalore. Not easy to locate as there are not much signboards, but google maps makes it quite easy. The check in process was quick with flower garlands et al, which makes you feel special. The room is very spacious and also had a pvt sitout with lot of space and adequate privacy. The room 's lights, curtains and tv can be controlled through a tab as it has smart room configured. It is a unique and useful experience. The breakfast buffet has a lavish spread and thankfully well stocked and replenished quickly despite the year end crowd one odd experience was that during initial check in time, they mentioned that the gala dinner for the new year eve was to be attended by all guests as a mandatory requirement. When i pointed out that we are not keen to participate as we wanted to just relax on our own, they didn't insist. Overall, had a good time at the resort

Situated next to ed-en beach in pondicherry, radisson’s property is probably the only international branded property in pondicherry. It is ideal for those who visit pondicherry with a car, as it’s slightly away from the rest of tourist attractions and the white town. We stayed in a chalet, which was very spacious, and felt very premium. Hotel staff was very courteous, especially the in room dining team, did all possible to make our dining experience a delight. I would recommend trying out a fish curry with gooseberry and rice for those who can tolerate and appreciate the magic of spices. Breakfast was adequate with a live counter and a mix of indian and continental options. Best part is early morning access to ed-en beach, which gets really crowded during the day. Almost exclusive.

The place and the rooms are really good ! the room is equipped with a lot of features that deem it to be a smart room. However, the only reason i will rate it 4 o it of 5 is because of the following aspects. 1. The room describes a king size bed but in reality they gave us two single mattresses on a bigger bed. This makes it very inconvenient due to the partition created in the middle. 2. Tata sky recharge expired in the middle of the night. 3. Swimming pool was overcrowded which made it a less like-able experience as you normally want to relax and have a nice swim and not get a public pool experience. These points are purely based on my experience. This accommodation however is amazing in all other ways and should definitely try if it falls under your budget.

Location: close to pristine ed-en beach. Bit far from main pondi since it's a getaway resort. Rooms: rooms are huge and superb. Clean and remote controlled. Tasteful decor. However, we took the lagoon view which had no view of lagoon since on ground floor. Food: had first meal at great indian kebab factory which is not recommended. Though ambience was good food itself was bland, flavourless and not pleasant to eat. Breakfast is fine and lunch at bay view is good too. Hospitality: the staff are well mannered, professional and helpful. Servers supdipta and abhinav were enthusiastic and helpful throughout. Amenities: quite few amenities compared to similar resorts especially at this price tag. There should be much more activities. Overall a good stay.

Extra ordinary experience as always ! it was awesome as always. Its a heaven for both parents and kids !

Closer to ed-en blue flag beach and have a decent swimming pool. Amenities and service are top notch. Breakfast can be better.

It was very pleasant stay at radisson resort. We spend three days it was wonderful. Specially staff's behaviour was awesome and very welcoming. Just worth it. Food was delicious specially the kebab factory.

Friendly and helpful staff, extremely baby friendly (we travel-led with an infant. They gave us all the baby food on the house and were helpful with the baby also. They also gave us a birthday cake which was great.

Property location is awesome. Walkable distance to the flagship beach ed-en beach and lagoon. We had a lagoon view room which was also one of the best experience. Staff was very polite, friendly and helpful with immediate response. Food is tasty, we had been to the great indian kebab factory tgikf which served us with some scrumptious kebabs. The brunch by the bay was also a unique experience to have food along with sea in the background.

Very nice stay. Once again very nice experience in grit radisson pondy next to mahabalipuram grt. Thanks to make my trip.

Good service and nice place to stay for family. The beach access and spacious rooms are excellent. Kids play area and villa was all good

An excellent stay, with a spa with a variety of wellness treatments! a very friendly staff and the location is very close to ed-en beach, which has been categorised as top 10 blue flag beach in india! i really recommend the stay here!

Our stay at raddison was wonderful. Enjoyed the stay. Food was great. Resort room was fantastic. Staff was very good.

It was an amazing stay at radisson blu pondicherry bay. The property is located next to lagoon and very close to ed-en beach. Hardly 5 mins walk from resort. Food was really tasty at bay bistro though the waiting time was high at times. Lot of daily activities were planned if one wants to stay at the resort. Not many sight seeing places in pondi. Beaches and water sports only. Auroville view was good but not allowed inside the dome without prior registration(atleast 3 days prior. Fresh town, light house, war memorial, few temples are all near by(30 mins drive and can cover all of them in 10 mins. Bodhi spa at resort is very good and a must try.

I enjoyed a comfortable stay at the beach resort in pondicherry. The cozy rooms, friendly staff, and proximity to the beach made it a pleasant experience. The serene atmosphere and well-maintained facilities contributed to a relaxing getaway. Highly recommended for those seeking a peaceful retreat by the sea.

Nice location and good amenities. The ed-en beach is very calm and peaceful, but neither private nor attached to the property. The restaurant staff were good but few of them seem to be over worked and not too pleasant at times. Housekeeping staff are really good. Overall, good place to relax but things can be improved to bring up to "radisson" standards.
