The timeless azure depths of the Bay of Bengal are but a step away at The House at Mahabs. The feeling is of being one with nature, and yet, pampered by the best man has to offer. The heritage setting adds authenticity to the whole experience. Be it rambling walks by the beach or the palm fringed lawns, relaxed snoozes out on a sundeck, it doesn't get more idyllic than this.
6 beautifully appointed rooms with ensuite bathrooms. With high ceilings, detailed woodwork, period furniture, antiques and Tanjore paintings, reminiscent of a heritage home. Wonderful views of the beach.
Large, bright and airy hallways that give direct access to all rooms.
Well-manicured gardens.
A herbal farm that supplies organically grown, toxin-free vegetables and fruits.
A coconut grove and ornamental fish pond.
Cuisine:
This beach paradise focuses predominantly on Chettinad or Malabar fare. Revel in the unique spice combinations and authentic techniques of these native cuisines. Our chefs can also whip up a continental breakfast or any delicacy of your choice. You are free to eat at our dining area or in a picturesque outdoor setting!
Lazing around the House at Mahabs is always a wonderful option, but if you're feeling a bit more energetic, there is a lot you can do and discover.
You could start off with a swim in the Bungalow's private beach. And like all beach enthusiasts, you could also lounge around, a glass of fresh coconut water in your hand. Or perhaps a catamaran ride with the local fishermen? Fish with them and you could even pick up a hint or two on how to haul in a wonderful catch. Or walk down to the crocodile bank for a night safari with alligators!
Heading out from the Bungalow, the East Coast Road will take you places and bring you adventures. Drive to nearby Mahabalipuram, or further away, Pondicherry or Kanchipuram, two destinations that are both historic, and yet as different as chalk and cheese.
For a taste of true Southern culture, visit Dakshinchitra.
With the House at Mahabs as your base, there are a number of beaches, cultural and religious centres and umpteen tourist attractions you can explore.
The House at Mahabs is located just 30 km south of Chennai on the East Coast Road (ECR), an express highway built along Bay of Bengal.
