The property is family friendly, there is beach access - you have to walk to the beach, not too far. We enjoyed the pool. Currently they have one restaurant at the propery - it was convenient and good India food. People are friendly and good service. We had a good time at this place.

The property should be downgraded to 1 star. Very poorly maintained. The pool and surrounding water areas, and garden was dirty and unclean. The food was terrible. Total dissappointment.

The wash basin broke, fell on my sister and the manager at first didn't believe us, I had to call twice to get maintenance. No apologies from anyone, they only gave us another room to use, but would not move our luggage. The wash basin became detached from the marble countertop from rot and faulty construction.

Overall a very good stay

We stayed in the Sky Jacuzzi room, it was a top of the world experience. Although no bar and no liquor availability inside the resort premises was a little bit of an inconvenience, everything else made up for the time we stayed there. I would definitely recommend the resort to my friends.

Not worth the money

This is my second visit to Ocean Spray, this resort certainly shows signs of aging and urgently needs some attention. There's nothing to look for except the swimming pool. The lake was under renovation so it was dirty. Food at Amber restaurant is exorbitantly expensive. Service Staff are courteous and nice. The folks at valet / reception will be behind you until you pay them tips, although they don't willingly help with loading / unloading.

Nice hotel with an amazing view

This hotel is a huge huge property so you can either just go there for 2 days take one day to explore the hotel which includes feeding the beautiful fishes in the lake, going for a stroll in the property, enjoying zone ball, a mud bike ride, and the aviary which is at a hidden corner of the property. The pool is huge. The rooms were well kept but the cleanliness was missing. The sheets had spots and the furniture was dusty. The food was not up to the mark. This hotel has no grocery no regular shops around which means you are on your own and Pondicherry white town is approx 16kms which is 20 minutes on a rickshaw that charges 400 one way and 750-800 round trip. Or you could hop on a bus (we had waited but couldn’t catch one) bus service could be a bit irregular.

Run down and overpriced, but staff are friendly

This resort is about 30 mins drive by taxi to Pondicherry. The cab will be relatively expensive but there isn't much choice. The Hotel itself does not have many non Indian guests so is not really geared up for "foreigners". It is in very poor condition, with little or nothing having been spent on maintenance in the last 20+ years. Doubt it would pass any safety checks. The staff are friendly but do not speak good/much english which can lead to problems. The pool is dilapidated with the in pool bar having fallen into disrepair some years ago. The rack rates are laughable for the quality of accommodation. Power cuts are common. Alcohol is served but the seemingly extensive wine menu is not in reality that extensive with a lot being "not available". There is a variety of animals roaming freely over the site - turkeys, guinea fowl, geese. There are goats as well but they managed to stay tethered! There is access to a beach but its not private and there are no umbrellas for the fairer skinned.

Very Bad Experience at Ocean Spray

Case ID number: M 11403819 & M11403877 Itin#14945109692 This is with ref. to my stay at Ocean Spray. I had the following issues with my stay and request you to process a refund for the entire amount. We got room 206 alloted to us.When we arrived at the place and got the access cards, we had lunch and came back to the room.The access cards were not working the door was not opening. The staff took about 30 minutes to get it working. The room Air conditioner was not working and so was the television. We had technicians in the room all along trying to rectify the issue. Later on after we returned from swimming and wanted to use the toilets for a shower there was no water for close to 2 hours. The front desk informed us that there is a major pipe breakage and it will take a long time for the water to be restored. The Sunday lunch buffet was re-served for dinner with just a few alternations to the food. 75% of it was the same food served during lunch. This was very disappointing. The front desk did change the room for us to room to 204 in the evening. We wasted a lot of time shifting the room. We request you to refund the amount as nothing was working in the hotel. Rather than having a holiday we were in the room all the time trying to get basic facilities to work. We have never experienced such a bad stay in any hotel before. Kindly refund my amount.

SO MUCH POTENTIAL!

We decided on a last minute long weekend and booked a flight and hotel package through Expedia. Not realizing it was a three hour cab ride from the Chennai airport, we decided to site see on the way there. When we finally arrived at Ocean Spray, we were amazed at the size and beauty of the property. We discovered soon after that there is a village separating the resort and the ocean - NO BEACH ACCESS. This village plays music and stories over the loud speaker for hours at all times of the day - NOT QUIET. The rooms were large, and if the finishing's and flooring were installed correctly could have been quite lovely. There was a large brown stain on our top blanket which was quickly changed. We stayed in a "heaven suite" which has a large Jacuzzi tub on the balcony (that we didn't use). The oversized pool is wonderful, but like most areas of the resort, NEEDS SOME TENDER LOVING CARE. There are four large pool bar's with fountains separating each, unfortunately all of them are abandoned and untidy and at least one bar stool was missing the top seat exposing sharp edges and wiring. In addition to fixing the broken seats and the off broken tile, stocking one bar and playing music at the pool would be an easy upgrade welcome by guests. We noticed a strong musty smell when visiting the spa, perhaps a dehumidifier or air purifier will help. Taxi rates were ridiculous. Perhaps offer a shuttle to the French Quarter for guests. COMFORTABLE BEDS, GOOD FOOD, GREAT STAFF

Has the potential...

Hotel has the potential to be excellent, however it is: Run down, customer service at front desk is poor, check out is 10am and wouldn't allow late check out, room is basic and not worth the cost, breakfast is poor, pool bar was not open - these are some of the main issues. Grounds are lovely, huge pool and comfy beds. Something else to bear in mind is there is no direct access to the beach from the hotel... And to get there is a 15minute walk through a village... There is also no one on the beach.

Beach access not good

Traveling 350kms to a beach holiday @ ocean spray is not worth the effort as we could hardly be on the beach. Beach is accessible by walking out of this property through a village, and there are fishing boats parked all along the beach. Plus the beach is quite dirty as it is used as a toilet. I booked this via expedia but found better price at makemytrip, so if you are looking at this do chkout other offerings. The price match claim is not really honored. The property itself is nice and spread across 25 acres. Pool, lawn, children's activity are very nice. Food is ordinary. As the place has a huge man made lake and we can use the paddle boat in it. We stayed in the Bermuda villa, nice room but had lots of mosquitoes that made it difficult to relax. Food is ordinary, though they have a huge spread in the buffet the dishes were quite bland and flavorless. I have stayed at other hotels in Pondicherry among which zest club mahindra had really nice private beach.
