This is by far the best resort in Mahabalipuram (given the general dearth of good resorts in the area). Price is slightly on the high side, but is made up for by excellent location (right next to the shore temple) and beautiful landscaped grounds. The poolside rooms are beautiful and tastefully decorated. Room service was prompt. Checkin / Checkout was... more

I had visited this propety with my family about a decade ago and thought it to be quite quaint and lovely. However, when I went back this time I was even more pleasantly surprised at how beautifully the new management has redone the property. At a truly affordable price (Rs.10,000/- per night for a stay of four people) the GRT... more

We were a group of 5 couples with 1 child each and we stayed at the Bay View Rooms at Temple Bay. Rooms were of varying sizes and tend to have different sized balconies as well. So, one needs to be careful in picking the rooms. My brother lives in Chennai and he personally had hand picked the rooms with... more

The best place for having business meeting and office outs for parties and get togethers with beautiful outlook on Sea beach, volleyball grounds and others to addin with a great and tastier veg/non-veg food. Accomodations too good near the beach for its value to enjoy the nature on its whole!! more

the hotel promised a lot but failed on all counts due to poor service. They were not prepared to handle a spurt of guests on a holiday weekend. The hotel adopted discriminatory policies to meet this challenges. The only decent restaurant which is called "Wharf" was reserved, the entire restaurent, no room fo walk in guests or first come first... more

The rooms are very spacious and clean and the service was excellent. The hotel has the biggest pool in SE Asia. The breakfast was great, having a vast choise. We also... more

I stayed in GRT Temple Bay for 3 nights during a Tamil Nadu tour. The property is very big and very well maintained. They are building new cottages near the new lake-pool area. I had a nice and large cottage room on 1th floor, sea facing. Unfortunately these room are the older one and with some problems: there was a... more

Spent a long weekend in Temple Bay together with my family. While being in this large resort you do not notice this but the resort is right in Mahabalipuram and it is very convenient to walk to the shore temple along the beach or through the gate in a few minutes right into the town center. That means no car... more

Went looking for a relaxing couple of days. The hotel is well located, less than a kilometer from the Shore Temple. The hotel is right on the beach, though the access was awkward. The rooms were OK, the food was OK, the service was terrible. The staff is well meaning and polite but completely untrained. At the restaurant you really... more
