Property Overview 

Ocean Spray Resort, perched along the scenic East Coast Road (ECR) between Chennai and Pondicherry, is a sanctuary of wellness, sustainable luxury, and coastal calm. Spread across 23 acres of landscaped gardens, lagoons, and gentle water bodies, the resort is designed to harmonize with nature and provide a holistic escape from urban life. At its core lies a man‑made freshwater lagoon weaving through the property, lending an “island in a garden” feel, while private villas and rooms open onto vistas of greenery, water, or beach beyond.

Every element—from architecture to service—is imbued with mindful luxury. The resort places strong emphasis on holistic wellbeing: Hoshi Wellness Spa offers Ayurvedic therapies, signature massages, and wellness rituals using local organic ingredients. Daily yoga and meditation sessions are conducted on scenic decks overlooking water or gardens. The on‑site organic kitchen curates plant-forward, seasonal menus designed to nourish both body and spirit. The property actively integrates eco‑friendly design features such as rainwater harvesting, solar panels, native landscaping, waste recycling, and energy-efficient lighting.

Guests experience a restorative stay here—mornings with sunrise yoga, afternoons by tranquil pools or lagoons, evenings with light asana, spa rituals, and conscious dining under the stars. With airy interiors, natural materials, softly curated lighting, and water‑facing terraces, the design ethos is “quiet luxury meets nature.” Whether you arrive for a short wellness reset or longer retreat, Ocean Spray prepares a deeply fulfilling, regenerative canvas against the backdrop of coastal Tamil Nadu.

Stay Experience & Unique Design

Guests at Ocean Spray immerse in a seamless interplay of water, light, green spaces, and open-air design. Villas with plunge pools and water decks evoke floating sanctuaries. Open‑sky showers, airy corridors, wooden flooring, stone accent walls and soft natural palettes amplify the connection to surrounding nature. The lagoon is woven into the spatial layout, creating a sense of walking beside water or across little bridges. At dawn, light filters through foliage onto yoga decks; in the evenings, fire-lit walkways and lantern-lit patios frame spa rituals. This design philosophy creates a rhythm: wake in harmony, move with intention, rest with depth.
