Because it was recommended by Lonely Planet and Rough Guide, we rushed to this small guesthouse without thinking. The family that runs this guesthouse was unfriendly and treated us like ATMs. When we asked for AC, they told us three times the price they had originally quoted us. We payed for two nights in advance (Rs. 500 per night, non-AC... more

We got a quiet room with a balcony shaded by palm trees, but overlooking a rubbish filled lane. There is a five minute walk to the beach via the back gate, so reasonably convenient but hardly a beach resort. The downside of the room was that it was only big enough to have the two beds pushed together against the... more

My friends and I stayed here for 2 nights recently. The room was simple and clean. Quiet at night. Nice restaurant attached for breakfast (which was included). Fair prices. In the heart of just about everything and so close to the beach! I adore the courtyard and the massage options. If you go, tell Er. C. Appukutan that Eri sent... more

I wouldn't exactly call this a beach resort given that it's not on the beach and is a long way from being a "resort," though they do offer some amenities, such as laundry and ayurvedic massage. When I first saw our room I wanted to cry then realized that despite its rough and readiness it was clean and had the... more

I visited Mahabalipuram which is 65 KM away from Chennai on ECR(East Coast Road). The journey from Chennai to Mahabalipuram or mamllapuram is unforgettable due to its magnificent scenic views. It takes about one and half hour to reach mahabalipuram. stayed in Greenwoods beach resort at Othavadai Cross. The care taking person of the lodge Balaji is such a nice... more

Our flight was delayed and therefore I asked not to pick us up at the airport as previously requested. Moreover we wanted to save some money because prepaid taxis were about Rs 400 cheaper that Greenwoods pick up service. As soon... more

We stayed 3 days 2 nights in Mamallapuram and we had a great time in Green Woods Beach Resort. It is a very quiet place and especially room number 3 is very sweet! The people there are really very kind and helpfull because we had some troubles with an agency in Kerala and Balaji from Green Woods Beach Resort resolved... more

Great place to stay, the family are very nice, they have a beautifull garden, close to the beach, we paid 995 for ac room with breakfast included, taxi to airport 850 more

Well... I have mixed feelings about the Greenwoods Resort. Some things were specially great, but others were quite disappointing. First of all, is not on the beach, at all. Mamallapuram, though, is not very big, and you can easily walk everywhere in a short time, so going to the beach doesn't take more than 5 minutes. Once we got into... more
