Auroville, the experimental township of global peace and unity, has a vibe of its own - green, breezy and quiet. This little township located to the far end of Pondicherry also has a beach of its own, often less crowded by the tourist rush. Nestled in the heart of Auroville, just 5 km from the beach, lies this exclusive resort - a perfect place perfect for those travelling with their close-knit groups. Emerald lawns speckled with flowerets of cheerful hues, canopies made by the towering trees, the dainty sit-outs in the gardens - these little nuances of beauty would sweep you off your feet at first sight. Your dwellings come appointed with all modern comforts - cushioned beds, fine upholstery and essential furnishings. Swathed in natural lights, and done in subtle decor, these rooms sports the breezy vibes of Pondicherry. Balconies look out to the breathtaking greens, and the living room is the perfect place to cozy up with your loved ones and engage in conversations.

And if you want to venture out and explore the beautiful yellow toned town, you could rent a car from the resort, and drive around the streets of Pondicherry. Get the chance to witness a township that is a world of its own, create memories for a lifetime.
Great place
Reviewed By MrTravellerGSecond time we've stayed here. Very friendly staff, very tranquil and relaxing place. Great swimming pool. Breakfast is a bit basic, and usually only Indian breakfast of idly's etc. It's also in a great area just outside Auroville itself and about 15 minutes by tuk-tuk to Pondicherry. There's even a cash point now pretty much next door, when there never used to be, plenty of places to eat and Jeffi - the best place to eat in the whole area - is only a few doors down. Great value for money.

The green colored guesthouse is wonderful; centrally located, distance close to the main road and walking distance the visitor center and Matri Mandir in Auroville. The rooms are very clean in good condition. The staff is very friendly and the kitchen served special healthy yogi-like vegetarian food-almost gluten-free and vegan - yummy!
Couple trip
Reviewed By souravg826Nice place and ambience. Room size was little small but other than everything was good. Very near to matrimandir and even the restaurant food was good. They also provide room service and also have swimming pool. They have trees planted all around

Powerless in Pondicherry
Reviewed By annesI7154JZThe garden was lovely and the room spacious. Unfortunately the power went out at night and the generator had run out of fuel. No fan, no a/c. It would have been bearable in winter but in May it was terrible. The hotel was not very apologetic. They were more concerned with our registration docs, which they messed up.
4. Sharnga Guest House
Overall Ratings
4 based on 37 reviews
Sharnga Guest House is located in Sharnga community, one of the 150 settlements in Auroville. Sharnga community was started by Claude and Bernard on a barren land in 1976, first as a farm then as a stud farm having up to 40 horses. In 1992, when it was time to evolve and change once again, the horse sheds were transformed into rooms to welcome new comers into Auroville and guests as a co project of Bernard and Sigrid. Slowly Sharnga Guest House grew into a full-fledged Guest House it is today. The farm also grew into a residential community with each new resident their own work and activity. Sharnga is a “forest” guest house under big trees and in the middle of a lush, green, natural garden. Birds, butterflies, fish, horses, dogs, bugs, also share this environment with us humans. As most animals and insects are shy and seasonal one does not always see or meet them, but if you are quiet and lucky, you might be privileged enough to meet one or more of our co-habitants.
Must go just for serenity - poor customer service, facilities
Reviewed By ruparajgoI spent 2 nights in Sharnga and this is my honest review. The place is far from the city and in a remote location. It is close to Auroville Main Road and Matrimandir but commute is not easy unless you have a car or comfortable riding a cycle. Knowing the route is a must! Maps misguide you. There is no way to book a cab or auto. The staff in the guest house also are not that helpful. The place looks green and serene - can be exciting for someone who wants a foresty ambience, can be overwhelming for someone who is not used to such an ambience. The guest house rooms are cosy, comfortable and have a good vibe. Breakfast served is decent. No lunch or dinner options. Only black tea and coffee and a kettle available in the common area. If you need more, you have to make arrangements. Swiggy delivery available but may charge extra. Cons There is only one person managing the administrative tasks. The two people managing are helpful and attend to your requests but overall maintenance is an issue. The bathrooms are not that well maintained. There are transparent windows in the rooms and there is always the fear of someone peeking in. Hot water takes some time to come. My room lock wasnt working properly and I had to shuttle between rooms till that was fixed Repeated follow ups had to be done and even when they said it got fixed, it wasnt - there is no attention to detail Random people switch off mains and geyser and you are left wondering if it is a power cut or something wrong The place gets really dark after 6 pm and it is so desolate that you will feel as if you are the only one in the guest house (if you are a solo traveller) The owners are rude and indifferent to some and super friendly to others There is no guidance, assistance Overall the people arent that welcoming, the place has a great vibe though You will be okay if you are super independent and can manage things on your own Also note this is not a resort or a party friendly place!

Fan and A/C in all rooms. Simple breakfast included (Tea/coffee, Bread and butter). Laundry service possible. Guest Kitchen for meeting people and cooking as you like. Fridge in the guest kitchen. Close by kuilapalayam village. Helpfull for shops and restaurants. Close to auroville's swimming pool and playgrounds (tennis/Basket/volleyball/badminton).
A very bad experience !
Reviewed By Sherpa563201we had a detestable experience for two reasons. The management has no concern for the quality of the accommodation or the welcome (when we arrived he spoke to us without looking up from his computer). We always must claim to have a minimum of service. The second reason is cleanliness and hygiene which are very low. Under the pretext "that we are in Auroville" nobody pays attention to you and especially not the director. We had an insect invasion (I took pictures) the answer was : you are in India !

Simple and peaceful
Reviewed By vanitha12This is a family run guest house. So, one gets a feel of home away from home. Newly constructed building. The rooms, facilities are very good. They have a small kitchen within the campus which provides simple but good food. Very beautiful and serene place. Courteous staff, close to visitors centre. Overall, amazing experience and looking forward for my next visit !! Thank you so much.

Purity guest house is located in the heart of Auroville. Just 2 Km east from Matir mandir. It connects the main city of auroville and the village nearby markets. A pleasant atmosphere surrounded by forest and perfect place for relaxing and to experience the true spirit of nature.
Amazing, quit place. The family who runs it is extremely nice
Reviewed By 7amirlAmazing quiet place. Located in a small Forrest. The family who runs the place is extremely nice and helpful, helped us with a bike, transformation and much more. Breakfast is served there, and a bike is usually available for rent so it saves the hussle of finding a rental place.

Ours is the six room boutique resort in calm and quiet atmosphere still it is of the ECR Road and very near to the city. Tariff is very much offerdable with the comforts of the three star hotels.
Bad place to stay if you intend to relax
Reviewed By Avid02travelerThe resort is good looking on the outside but has many many flaws on the inside, Pros- Excellent exteriors and Interiors Secluded spot ideal for a getaway with friends Staff who are very mindful of your privacy Cons- AC not working Frequent powercuts below average cleanliness Shortage of service staff What they lack for the existing staff make up for in attitude and willingness to help. Our bathroom door wouldn't lock and if it did it would get jammed, the staff helped us with it but it was on the whole unnecessary. The place needs more staff and better maintenance
