A 50-km drive from Chennai, cultural gateway to the South, brings you to the Ideal Beach Resort. Set in an area steeped in Tamil history, very close to
Mamallapuram, the resort offers a magical blend of sun, surf and sand along the picturesque Coromandel Coast. Designed with an eye on luxury, it offers spacious, air-conditioned cottages that ensure privacy with exclusive balconies, and a wide range of cuisine, and personalised services on par with the best hotels. The menus include Indian, Continental, Chinese and Sri Lankan dishes and specialise in sea food, with crabs, lobsters and a wide variety of fish fresh from the fishermen’s nets.

A major attraction is nearby Mamallapuram, capital of the 7th century Pallava kings, famous for their patronage of art and culture. The rock-cut temples, some of them carved from a single rock, and one of the world’s largest bas-reliefs draw visitors and scholars from the world over. Facilities offered include a bar, swimming pool, conference hall, taxis and tourist agency, money changing, doctor on call, barbeques, in-door and outdoor games.
