Ocean Spray

Had a really nice stay at Ocean Spray! The property is beautiful and relaxing, with a peaceful vibe. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and I especially loved the breakfast. The staff were polite and helpful, making the whole experience even better. A great place .

Review: Stay at Ocean Spray Resort I stayed at Ocean Spray for 2 days. Honestly, it is not value for money. Star Rating: This property is not equal to a real 5-star. At best, it feels like a 4-star. If they want to call it 5-star, they must maintain the same hospitality standards like ITC, Taj, Hyatt, Radisson Blu, or Accord. For the same price, we can even get Taj Fisherman’s Cove in ECR Chennai with much better service. A true 5-star means all categories of rooms and facilities should match the level. Good Points: • Spacious rooms • Nice garden area and walking space Disappointments: For a spending so much, the value is very low. 1. Resort is not beach resort , The beach is around 800m away, and it is a public beach. We need to walk there, street dogs on the way, which is unsafe. 2. Room charges are more than 5-star rates, but they cut costs by filling bottles with tap water instead of proper packaged water. Even ₹20 mineral water they avoid. 3. Kids’ outdoor play area is very old (more than 10 years), damaged and unsafe. Children get disappointed. 4. Housekeeping is poor. They just clean rooms but don’t maintain proper checklists. Bathroom kits are not replaced daily. 5. Balcony areas are poorly maintained. Not family friendly, with cigarette waste still lying around. 6. Rooms have old cable TVs (2010 model), no smart TV. Clearly cost cutting. 7. Furniture in rooms is outdated. Only one chair is kept. No 3-seater sofa for family comfort. 8. Swimming pool has no proper play items for kids. Guests have to bring their own. 9. Activity area is almost empty. They try to push only paid/additional cost activities. 10. Food is okay, but for a true 5-star standard, it is not acceptable. Overall: Ocean Spray looks big and spacious, but service and facilities are not worth the high price. For the money they charge, better options like any brand five star are available with real 5-star experience.

Selecting Ocean Spray Resort, Pondicherry for our 50-member offsite was the perfect choice. Right from the start, the team was incredibly attentive and responsive, ensuring every detail was taken care of with precision. Orchestrating an event of this scale at such short notice and delivering it flawlessly is truly commendable. The hospitality was exceptional, and our heartfelt thanks go to the entire team for making it an unforgettable experience. Special thanks to Ms. Aswini for making the booking process so smooth and efficient. Upon arrival, Mr. Sasi and the reservation team ensured a seamless check-in for everyone. The staff were extremely kind and courteous, setting the tone for the entire stay. The Banquet and F&B team Mr. Ravi and Mr. Tamil went above and beyond to arrange every buffet breakfast, lunch, and dinner right on time. Each meal was well organized, delicious, and offered a wide variety of options. The DJ party was a highlight - great music, lively atmosphere, fantastic arrangements and superb service from bar attendants. The cocktail snacks were amazing. The resort’s ambience was equally impressive—lush greenery, serene water features, a stunning swimming pool, all impeccably maintained. It created the perfect backdrop for relaxation.
