Pondicherry · 民居里的独立房间 · 1室1床1.0卫 · 可住2人 · Garden room (10 mins from both PY & Auroville)
The garden room has lots of quirk & colour! One of the windows faces the garden whereas the other towards the courtyard, so you've always got lots of greenery right outside. It's the only other room (along with 'the Backpacker') that shares a toilet which is right next to the room. Oh also, breakfast by our Suganthi akka is on the house btw, served with a smile of course :) East Coast Home is a space for creative, curious beings that's nestled in a quiet, green, private gated complex bang in between Auroville and Pondicherry (right off the auroville main road) a couple kms from the East Coast Road (that connects Chennai - PY) and the beach itself. It's mine & Nila + Maya's (my two cats) home first and foremost that has been converted into a homestay :) A lot of thought, quirk, care and hardwork has gone into almost every corner of the space which will be quite evident once you enter.
Marc is a great host and manages a beautiful space. My stay was comfortable and seamless in every possible way.
My heartfelt thanks for the exceptional stay. The rustic allure of your place is beautifully complemented by the affectionate feline companions that seemed to have an intuitive knack for offering comfort when needed. The meals were delightful, especially owing to the stellar dosa preparations by the support staff. Each meal was memorable. The spacious rooms and the multiple communal areas like the garden, terrace, and living area added to the experience, making it feel expansive and serene. One thing to note for future visitors is the convenience of having personal transportation, as it's not ideally suited for foot commutes. While the lanes can get dark at night due to the absence of street lights, they remain safe, as experienced by myself and other guests. The location is central, striking a balance between Auroville and White Town. For those seeking tranquility away from the city's hustle, this place is perfect.
Marc's home was a pleasure to stay at and every single part of the space was a piece of art. If you are looking for something with nature and art right in the home this is the place. Akka's breakfasts were amazing and marc was very responsive when I was arriving. Because of the home is open to the outside you can expect bugs but it is totally worth it for the beautiful stay.
I stayed here for a month and honestly East Coast Home. Is exactly what it is. It makes you feel like Home. From Suganthi Akka’s delicious breakfast to Just lazying around the place it keeps you at peace. Close to amazing restaurants, the beach and immaculate views. 10/10 for everything.
Our neighborhood is surrounded by coconut plantations, lush flora+fauna and is home to birds of all sorts, cats, Puchki, Coco & Anam (our neighborhood dogs)
Auroville bakery, Bread & Chocolate, Tanto's, Nowana, Umami kitchen, Marc's coffee are some of the well known eateries & cafés that are within 1.5 kms from us.
The Auroville township is 4kms - 9/15 mins away by a scooter / cycle.
Pondicherry is 5 kms - 12/20 mins away by a scooter / cycle.
Quiet beach and Serenity beach are about 2.5 kms - 7/10 mins away by a scooter / cycle.
There are regular buses that ply from Chennai - Pondicherry on the east coast road (ECR)
You can get off at 'Auroville Junction'
Our place is just 1.5 kms from 'Auroville Jn.'
There are rickshaws available in and around but you might have to bargain a bit.
Rental shops for 2 wheelers, scooters and cycles are available throughout the neighborhood.
Best way to get around in my opinion is by a two-wheeler. If you want to explore the cycling trails and auroville thoroughly though, I'd suggest taking a cycle and doing so. It's sort of a workout, but so worth it!
