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.

Activities

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.
