“Stayed at this stunning villa with my family and kids of 9 members, with a private swimming pool that stole the show, crystal clear water and total privacy for ultimate relaxation. The ambience is pure bliss: lush greenery, serene vibes, and that perfect coastal breeze. Food? Chef's kiss! Fresh, flavorful home style meals that hit all the right spots. Thanks to chef Niyaz. The place is spotless, neat, clean, and impeccably maintained everywhere you look. If you're craving a peaceful getaway near Mahabalipuram, this is it! Highly recommend it!”

- Rhythm Rehearsal Studio
“A wonderful place to visit with family, good home made food, safe, good private pool, etc. We went there with four family members and stayed in this dual villa. It was a really pleasant stay and I enjoyed it more. This is our permanent destination every year.”
- Priya Sekar
“Villa De Aqua is one of the best beach houses in ECR. They maintain the place very neat and clean. The swimming pool was awesome and very clean too. The rooms were all very spacious. Bed sheets, pillows and blankets were all clean and changed properly before we checked in. Kitchen was fully equipped with all needed vessels, microwave oven, induction stove and refrigerator. Bathrooms were also very clean. Overall they are maintaining the property very neatly, which is very important. The caretaker is very helpful and the home-cooked food was delicious with reasonable price.”
