Experience the special Franco-Tamil culture in Pondicherry

The Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay offers a unique and immersive experience that combines rich Franco-Tamil culture, resulting in a memorable fusion of two distinct worlds. This exquisite resort, nestled on the gorgeous Bay of Bengal coastline, serves as a gateway to Pondicherry's unique cultural tapestry.

When visiting our resort, you are immediately transported into a realm where French grandeur meets Tamil customs. The architecture brilliantly depicts this dichotomy, with colonial-style constructions adorned with colorful Tamil themes and Chettinad's renowned Athugudi floor tiles. Our 46 chalets and 5 villas provide maximum comfort as well as breathtaking views of the surrounding area and lagoon. From the meticulously constructed apartments to the lush grounds, the mix of French sophistication and Tamil exuberance is evident in every detail. The dining experiences at Bay Bistro are a true testament to Franco-Tamil fusion, presenting a wide range of gastronomic delights that combine the flavors of French cuisine with the aromatic spices of Tamil food. Along with traditional Tamil dishes, you can enjoy crepes stuffed with spicy masala or a glass of fine French wine. The Great Kabab Factory, a contemporary and sophisticated Indian specialty restaurant in our resort, serves North-Western Indian food.

The indoor and outdoor meeting and event venues allow attendees to hold a variety of amazing events such as conferences, weddings, and performances. Our resort's location also provides visitors with an insight into Pondicherry's neighboring Franco-Tamil culture. A short drive will take you to the picturesque White Town, where colonial French architecture blends with Tamil bazaars to create a wonderful atmosphere. Tour the local neighborhoods, take a stroll along the Promenade Beach, or indulge in French pastries.

At Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay, we accept guests with pets (dogs and cats exclusively).
