Questions
- How far are the villas from Chennai?
- About 2 hours from central Chennai to our Kuvathur villas and about 70 minutes to Elite in Muttukadu, depending on traffic.
- Which villa is closest to Mahabalipuram?
- Cascade Pool and Rainshower in Kuvathur are our villas closest to Mahabalipuram, with easy access to its UNESCO sites.
- Is a villa better than a Mahabalipuram resort for a group?
- For groups of 12 or more, usually yes: one villa keeps everyone under one roof with a private pool, lawn and chef, often for less than several resort rooms.
- Can we visit the monuments during our stay?
- Yes. Plan a morning at the Shore Temple and Pancha Rathas and be back at the villa for the pool in the afternoon.
- What if our group is bigger than the villa's capacity?
- A villa can host up to about 30% more guests than its standard capacity with extra beds, at ₹1,000 per extra bed. For larger groups, our manager arranges a custom option.
- What are the check-in and check-out times?
- Check-in from 2 PM and check-out by 12 noon. Early check-in or late check-out can be arranged in advance, subject to availability.
